Abstract

A method for manufacturing semiconductor device. The method includes the steps of providing a substrate that has a gate structure thereon, and then forming offset spacers on the sidewalls of the gate structure. Thereafter, a thin oxide annealing operation is conducted, and then a first ion implantation is carried out using the gate structure and the offset spacers as a mask to form lightly doped drain regions in the substrate. Subsequently, secondary spacers are formed on the exterior sidewalls of the offset spacers. Finally, a second ion implantation is carried out using the gate structure, the offset spacers and the secondary spacers as a mask to form source/drain regions within the lightly doped drain regions.
