US Patent 11393713 Semiconductor device and manufacturing method therefore

In a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device including a field effect transistor (FET), a sacrificial region is formed in a substrate, and a trench is formed in the substrate. A part of the sacrificial region is exposed in the trench. A space is formed by at least partially etching the sacrificial region, an isolation insulating layer is formed in the trench and the space, and a gate structure and a source/drain region are formed. An air spacer is formed in the space under the source/drain region.
