Abstract

A method includes forming a body region of a first conductivity type and a doped region of a second conductivity type in a semiconductor substrate; forming a gate structure the substrate, and first gate spacers respectively on first and second sides of the gate structure; depositing a second spacer layer and a third spacer layer over the gate structure; patterning the third spacer layer into third gate spacers respectively on the first and second sides of the gate structure; removing a first one of the third gate spacers from the first side of the gate structure, while leaving a second one of the third gate spacers on the second side of the gate structure; and patterning the second spacer layer into a second gate spacer by using the second one of the third gate spacers as an etching mask.
