Abstract

An epitaxial structure for a non-planar transistor is provided. A substrate has a fin-shaped structure. A gate is disposed across the fin-shaped structure. A silicon germanium epitaxial structure is disposed on the fin-shaped structure beside the gate, wherein the silicon germanium epitaxial structure has 4 <1,1,1> surfaces and its aspect ratio of width and thickness is at a range of 1:1˜1.3. A method for forming said epitaxial structure is also provided.
