Abstract

A method for making a transistor is provided which comprises (a) providing a semiconductor structure having a gate (211) overlying a semiconductor layer (203), and having at least one spacer structure (213) disposed adjacent to said gate; (b) removing a portion of the semiconductor structure adjacent to the spacer structure, thereby exposing a portion (215) of the semiconductor structure which underlies the spacer structure; and (c) subjecting the exposed portion of the semiconductor structure to an angled implant (253, 254).
