Abstract
A semiconductor integrated circuit structure and method of fabrication is disclosed. The structure includes a FET gate with adajcent double or triple-layered gate spacers. The spacers permit precise tailoring of lightly doped drain junction profiles having deep and shallow junction portions. In addition, a self-aligned silicide may be formed solely over the deep junction portion thus producing a reliable low contact resistance connection to source and drain.
