摘要： An asymmetrical IGFET including a lightly doped drain region, heavily doped source and drain regions, and an ultra-heavily doped source region is disclosed. Preferably, the lightly doped drain region and heavily doped source region provide channel junctions. A method of making the IGFET includes providing a semiconductor substrate, forming a gate with first and second opposing sidewalls over the substrate, applying a first ion implantation to implant lightly doped source and drain regions into the substrate, applying a second ion implantation to convert the lightly doped source region into a heavily doped source region without doping the lightly doped drain region, forming first and second spacers adjacent to the first and second sidewalls, respectively, and applying a third ion implantation to convert a portion of the heavily doped source region outside the first spacer into an ultra-heavily doped source region without doping a portion of the heavily doped source region beneath the first spacer, and to convert a portion of the lightly doped drain region outside the second spacer into a heavily doped drain region without doping a portion of the lightly doped drain region beneath the second spacer. Advantageously, the IGFET has low source-drain series resistance and reduces hot carrier effects.

摘要： A photolithographic system including a light filter that varies light intensity according to measured dimensional data that characterizes a lens error is disclosed. The light filter compensates for the lens error by reducing the light intensity of the image pattern as the lens error increases. In this manner, when the lens error causes focusing variations that result in enlarged portions of the image pattern, the light filter reduces the light intensity transmitted to the enlarged portions of the image pattern. This, in turn, reduces the rate in which regions of the photoresist layer beneath the enlarged portions of the image pattern are rendered soluble to a subsequent developer. As a result, after the photoresist layer is developed, linewidth variations that otherwise result from the lens error are reduced due to the light filter. Preferably, the light filter includes a light-absorbing film such as a semi-transparent layer such as calcium fluoride on a light-transmitting base such as a quartz plate, and the thickness of the light-absorbing film varies in accordance with the measured dimensional data to provide the desired variations in light intensity. The invention is particularly well-suited for patterning a photoresist layer that defines polysilicon gates of an integrated circuit device.

摘要： A semiconductor process in which at least one isolation structure is formed in a semiconductor substrate is provided. An oxygen bearing species is introduced into portions of the semiconductor substrate proximal to the isolation structure, preferably through the use of an ion implantation into a tilted or inclined substrate. A gate dielectric layer is then formed on an upper surface of the semiconductor substrate. The presence of the oxygen bearing species in the proximal portions of the semiconductor substrate increases the oxidation rate of the portions relative proximal to the oxidation rate of portions of the substrate that are distal to the isolation structures. In this manner, a first thickness of the gate dielectric over the proximal portions of the semiconductor substrate is greater than a second thickness of the gate oxide layer over remaining portions of the semiconductor substrate. The increased oxide thickness adjacent to the discontinuities of the isolation trench reduces the electric field across the oxide.

摘要： An integrated circuit is formed whereby junction of NMOS transistors are formed dissimilar to junctions of PMOS transistors. The NMOS transistors include an LDD area, an MDD area and a heavy concentration source/drain area. Conversely, the PMOS transistor include an LDD area and a source/drain area. The NMOS transistor junction is formed dissimilar from the PMOS transistor junction to take into account the less mobile nature of the junction dopants relative to the PMOS dopants. Thus, a lessening of the LDD area and the inclusion of an MDD area provide lower source/drain resistance and higher ohmic connectivity in the NMOS device. The PMOS junction includes a relatively large LDD area so as to draw the highly mobile, heavy concentration boron atoms away from the PMOS channel.

摘要： A method of making NMOS and PMOS devices with reduced masking steps is disclosed. The method includes providing a semiconductor substrate with a first active region of first conductivity type and a second active region of second conductivity type, forming a gate material over the first and second active regions, forming a first masking layer over the gate material, etching the gate material using the first masking layer as an etch mask to form a first gate over the first active region and a second gate over the second active region, implanting a dopant of second conductivity type into the first and second active regions using the first masking layer as an implant mask, forming a second masking layer that covers the first active region and includes an opening above the second active region, and implanting a dopant of first conductivity type into the second active region using the first and second masking layers as an implant mask. Advantageously, the dopant of first conductivity type counterdopes the dopant of second conductivity type in the second active region, thereby providing source and drain regions of second conductivity type in the first active region and source and drain regions of first conductivity type in the second active region with a single masking step and without subjecting either gate to dopants of first and second conductivity type.

摘要： An IGFET with a gate electrode and metal spacers in a trench is disclosed. The IGFET includes a trench with opposing sidewalls and a bottom surface in a semiconductor substrate, metal spacers adjacent to the sidewalls and the bottom surface, a gate insulator on the bottom surface between the metal spacers, protective insulators on the metal spacers, a gate electrode on the gate insulator and protective insulators, and a source and drain adjacent to the bottom surface. A method of forming the IGFET includes implanting a doped layer into the substrate, etching completely through the doped layer and partially through the substrate to form the trench and split the doped layer into source and drain regions, applying a high-temperature anneal to diffuse the source and drain regions beneath the bottom surface, depositing a blanket layer of conductive metal over the substrate and applying an anisotropic etch to form the metal spacers, depositing a continuous insulative layer over the substrate to provide the gate insulator and the protective insulators, depositing a blanket layer of gate electrode material over the substrate, and polishing the gate electrode material so that the gate electrode is substantially aligned with a top surface of the substrate. Advantageously, the channel length is significantly smaller than the trench length, and the metal spacers reduce the parasitic resistance of lightly doped source and drain regions.

摘要： A method for isolating a first active region from a second active region, both of which are configured within a semiconductor substrate. The method comprises forming a dielectric masking layer above a semiconductor substrate. An opening is then formed through the masking layer. A pair of dielectric spacers are formed upon the sidewalls of the masking layer within the opening. A trench is then etched in the semiconductor substrate between the dielectric spacers. A first dielectric layer is then thermally grown on the walls and base of the trench. A CVD oxide is deposited into the trench and processed such that the upper surface of the CVD oxide is commensurate with the substrate surface. Portions of the spacers are also removed such that the thickness of the spacers is between about 0 to 200 .ANG.. Silicon atoms and/or barrier atoms, such as nitrogen atoms, are then implanted into regions of the active areas in close proximity to the trench isolation structure.

摘要： An IGFET with metal spacers is disclosed. The IGFET includes a gate electrode on a gate insulator on a semiconductor substrate. Sidewall insulators are adjacent to opposing vertical edges of the gate electrode, and metal spacers are formed on the substrate and adjacent to the sidewall insulators. The metal spacers are electrically isolated from the gate electrode but contact portions of the drain and the source. Preferably, the metal spacers are adjacent to edges of the gate insulator beneath the sidewall insulators. The metal spacers are formed by depositing a metal layer over the substrate then applying an anisotropic etch. In one embodiment, the metal spacers contact lightly and heavily doped drain and source regions, thereby increasing the conductivity between the heavily doped drain and source regions and the channel underlying the gate electrode. The metal spacers can also provide low resistance drain and source contacts.
