US Patent 12009427 Semiconductor device and manufacturing method thereof

A fin field effect transistor (Fin FET) device includes a fin structure extending in a first direction and protruding from an isolation insulating layer disposed over a substrate. The fin structure includes a well layer, an oxide layer disposed over the well layer and a channel layer disposed over the oxide layer. The Fin FET device includes a gate structure covering a portion of the fin structure and extending in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The Fin FET device includes a source and a drain. Each of the source and drain includes a stressor layer disposed in recessed portions formed in the fin structure. The stressor layer extends above the recessed portions and applies a stress to a channel layer of the fin structure under the gate structure. The Fin FET device includes a dielectric layer formed in contact with the oxide layer and the stressor layer in the recessed portions.
