Abstract

A method of fabricating a field effect transistor is described. A gate oxide layer is formed on a substrate. A gate is formed on the gate oxide layer. A source region and a drain region are formed beside the gate in the substrate. A first spacer is formed beside a sidewall of the gate. A preserve layer is formed beside the first spacer. A second spacer is formed beside a sidewall of the preserve layer.
