A method for improving source/drain performance through conformal solid state doping and its resulting device are disclosed. Specifically, the doping takes place through an atomic layer deposition of a dopant layer. Embodiments of the invention may allow for an increased doping layer, improved conformality, and reduced defect formation, in comparison to alternate doping methods, such as ion implantation or epitaxial doping.
