METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SEMICONDUCTOR STRUCTURE WITH SOURCE/DRAIN STRUCTURE HAVING MODIFIED SHAPE

Semiconductor structures and method for forming the same are provide. The method includes forming a fin structure extending in a first direction over a substrate and forming spacers on sidewalls of the fin structure to laterally sandwiched the fin structure in a second direction. The method further includes etching the fin structure in a third direction to form a recess between the spacers and forming a doped region in the fin structure exposed by the recess. The method further includes removing an upper portion of the doped region and annealing a bottom portion of the doped region after removing the upper portion of the doped region. The method further includes forming a source/drain structure over the bottom portion of the doped region.
