    • A method of fabricating an integrated circuit transistor in a substrate is provided. A gate electrode stack is formed on the substrate. The stack has a first insulating layer, a first conductor layer on the first insulating layer, a second insulating layer on the first conductor layer, and a second conductor layer on the second insulating layer. First and second source/drain regions are formed in the substrate in spaced apart relation to define a channel region underlying the first insulating layer. First and second sidewall spacers are formed adjacent to the gate electrode stack. The second conductor layer and the second insulating layer are sacrificed and a silicide layer is formed on the first conductor layer. The void remaining after removal of the second conductor and insulating layers establishes a large separation between the silicide forming titanium layer and the first conductor layer. The result is a gate electrode stack that is resistant to lateral silicide formation due to silicon diffusion.
    • 提供了一种在衬底中制造集成电路晶体管的方法。 在基板上形成栅电极堆叠。 叠层具有第一绝缘层,第一绝缘层上的第一导体层,第一导体层上的第二绝缘层和第二绝缘层上的第二导体层。 第一和第二源极/漏极区域以间隔开的关系形成在衬底中,以限定第一绝缘层下面的沟道区域。 第一和第二侧壁间隔件邻近栅电极堆叠形成。 牺牲第二导体层和第二绝缘层,在第一导体层上形成硅化物层。 在去除第二导体和绝缘层之后残留的空隙在硅化物形成钛层和第一导体层之间形成大的间隔。 结果是由于硅扩散而耐外部硅化物形成的栅电极堆叠。

    • Integrated circuits with transistors exhibiting improved junction capacitances and various methods of fabricating the same are provided. In one aspect, a method of manufacturing is provided that includes forming a doped region in an active area of a substrate wherein the doped region has a first conductivity type and a first horizontal junction. A first source/drain region of the first conductivity type is formed in the active area with a second horizontal junction.

The second and third horizontal junctions are positioned substantially at the first horizontal junction. The portion of the doped region positioned in the channel region is doped with an impurity of a second conductivity type that is opposite to the first conductivity type. Impurity grading across a source/drain-to-body junction is less abrupt, resulting in improved junction capacitance.

    • An integrated circuit transistor and a method for making the same are provided. The transistor is resistant to junction shorts due to the overetch of local interconnect trenches. The transistor includes a source/drain region with a first junction and a second junction that is located deeper than the first junction in the portion of the active area susceptible to the overetch junction short phenomena. The second junction is established by ion implantation through a mask that is patterned to create an opening corresponding to the intersection of the layouts of the active area and the local interconnect trench. Using this method, the second junction is only established where needed to prevent shorting and does not impede transistor performance.
