Abstract

A method for manufacturing a pFET transistor, the method for manufacturing the transistor including providing a base structure comprising a silicon channel and a gate structure, the gate structure surrounding the channel leaving two flanks of the channel free; growing a first layer made from silicon-germanium alloy on the flanks of the channel; enriching the channel with germanium atoms from the first layer; and forming a drain region and a source region on either side of the channel.
