A source/drain extension process that uses HCl etching followed by selective growth of in situ B-doped SiGe is demonstrated. The two key process steps, etching and growth, are integrated by performing them consecutively in the same chemical vapor deposition reactor. The technique has the potential to solve end-of-the-roadmap requirements on junction depth, junction abruptness, and active doping concentration. (C) 2004 The Electrochemical Society.
