Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a substrate, a gate disposed over the substrate, a source/drain disposed in the substrate at two sides of the gate, and an insulating layer disposed over sidewalls of the gate and at least a portion of a surface of the source/drain. In some embodiments, the insulating layer includes a first side facing the gate or the source, and includes a second side opposite to the first side. The insulating layer includes dopants, and a concentration of the dopants is reduced from the second side to the first side of the insulating layer.
