A method is provided for fabricating a semiconductor device. The method includes providing a semiconductor substrate; and forming a first gate structure on the semiconductor substrate. The method also includes forming offset spacers doped with a certain type of ions to increase an anti-corrosion ability of the offset spacers on both sides of the first gate structure by a stability doping process; and forming trenches in the semiconductor substrate at both sides of the first gate structures. Further, the method includes forming stress layers in the trenches.
