Abstract

A method of manufacturing a raised source/drain MOSFET by depositing amorphous silicon on the partially formed MOSFET having the gate and gate oxide spacers formed, ion implanting to form the appropriate source/drain junctions, annealing wherein epitaxial growth takes place in regions where the amorphous silicon is over silicon, and etching the remaining amorphous silicon. A layer of refractory metal is deposited and a second anneal converts the refractory metal overlaying silicon to silicide.
