    • After growth of a thin oxide on a silicon semiconductor body, and formation of a gate thereover, a blanket layer of oxide is deposited over the resulting structure, this oxide layer having, as measured from the surface of the silicon body, relatively thick regions adjacent the sides of the gate and relatively thin regions extending therefrom. Upon implant of ions, the relatively thick regions block ions from passing therethrough into the semiconductor body, while the relatively thin regions allow passage of ions therethrough into the body. After drivein of the ions, the thick layer of oxide is isotopically etched to take a substantially uniform layer therefrom over the entire surface of the thick oxide layer, so that the thick regions thereof are reduced in width. Upon a subsequent ion implant step, the thick regions, now reduced in width from the sides of the gate, block passage of ions therethrough, while the thin regions allow ions therethrough into the silicon body. This process may be continued as chosen to from a desired source and drain profile.
    • 在硅半导体本体上生长薄氧化物并在其上形成栅极之后,在所得结构上沉积氧化物覆盖层,该氧化物层具有从硅体表面测量的较厚的相邻区域 门的侧面和从其延伸的相对薄的区域。 在离子注入时,相对较厚的区域阻止离子通过其进入半导体本体,而较薄的区域允许离子通过其进入体内。 在离子的驱动之后,厚厚的氧化物层被同位素蚀刻以在厚氧化物层的整个表面上从其中获得基本均匀的层,使得其厚的区域的宽度减小。 在随后的离子注入步骤中,现在从栅极的侧面减小宽度的厚区域阻止离子通过其中,而薄区域允许离子通过其进入硅体。 该过程可以根据期望的源和漏极曲线选择继续。

    • 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.
    • 公开了一种光刻系统,其包括根据测量的尺寸数据来表征透镜误差来改变光强度的滤光器。 光滤波器通过降低镜头误差增大时图像图案的光强度来补偿镜头误差。 以这种方式,当透镜错误导致导致图像图案的放大部分的聚焦变化时,光过滤器降低传输到图像图案的扩大部分的光强度。 这又降低了图像图案的放大部分之下的光致抗蚀剂层的区域变得可溶于后续显影剂的速率。 结果,在光致抗蚀剂层显影之后,由于滤光器而导致透镜误差导致的线宽变化会降低。 优选地,光滤波器包括诸如石英板等透光基底上的诸如氟化钙的半透明层的光吸收膜,并且光吸收膜的厚度根据测量的尺寸而变化 数据以提供所需的光强度变化。 本发明特别适用于图案化限定集成电路器件的多晶硅栅极的光致抗蚀剂层。
