Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a semiconductor device. The semiconductor device includes a gate structure disposed on a semiconductor substrate, a sidewall spacer disposed on sidewalls of the gate structure, a lightly-doped source/drain region formed in the semiconductor substrate on opposite sides of the gate structure, a source/drain region formed in the semiconductor substrate on opposite sides of the sidewall spacer, a halo implant region formed in the semiconductor substrate below the gate structure and adjacent to the lightly-doped source/drain region, and a counter-doping region formed in the semiconductor substrate below the gate structure and between the lightly-doped source/drain region and the halo implant region. The dopant concentration of the counter-doping region is lower than the dopant concentration of the halo implant region.
