A method of manufacturing a transistor by using two layers of a silicon epitaxial layer is disclosed. In the first step of the manufacturing process, a spacer is formed around gate structures. Then, a first silicon epitaxial layer is grown on the wafer. Then, a second spacer is deposited and then etched, such that the second spacer remains around a gate structure. Next a second silicon epitaxial layer is grown on the first silicon epitaxial layer, and the second spacer is etched from around the gate structure. After etching the first oxide spacer, ions are implanted at a first energy level to form four junctions. Then a third spacer is deposited and etched, so that the third spacer remains around the gate structures. Then ions are implanted at a second energy level to form two more junctions, each of these two junctions being located between two of the earlier formed junctions. The junctions and the gate structures provide a transistor structure. The resulting transistor has a good short channel effect because the junction depths are preferably all aligned. It also has good drive current because the junctions created by ion implantation at a second energy level have low parasitic resistance.
