    • A novel integrated circuit structure, and process for making same, is disclosed wherein a tapered or gradient doped profile region is provided in a semiconductor substrate between the heavily doped drain region and the channel region in the substrate comprising an MOS device. In the process of the invention, a re-entrant or tapered gate electrode, resembling an inverted trapezoid, is used as a mask during a first doping step at a dosage level higher than normally used to form a conventional LDD region. This doping step forms a doped region having a dopant gradient which gradually increases in dosage level with distance from the channel region. Conventional oxide spacers may then be formed on the sidewalls of the gate electrode followed by conventional high level doping to form the heavily doped source and drain region in the unmasked portions of the substrate between the oxide spacers and the field oxide isolation. Since the doped region beneath the oxide spacers includes a gradient doped profile region, with the lightest level of dopant adjacent the channel region (since more of the tapered gate electrode acted as a mask for the initial implantation), the overall dosage level used in the first implantation step to form the gradient doped profile region may be higher than the dosage level conventionally used to form a conventional LDD region. The resistance of the path between the heavily doped drain contact region and the channel region, which includes the gradient doped profile region, is therefore lower than the resistance of a conventional LDD region.
    • 公开了一种新颖的集成电路结构及其制造方法,其中在包括MOS器件的衬底中的重掺杂漏极区域和沟道区域之间的半导体衬底中提供锥形或梯度掺杂型态区域。 在本发明的方法中,在第一掺杂步骤期间,以比通常用于形成常规LDD区域的剂量水平,使用类似倒梯形的入口或锥形栅极电极作为掩模。 该掺杂步骤形成具有掺杂剂梯度的掺杂区域,其随着与沟道区域的距离而逐渐增加剂量水平。 然后可以在栅电极的侧壁上形成常规的氧化物间隔物,接着是常规的高电平掺杂,以在氧化物间隔物和场氧化物隔离之间的衬底的未屏蔽部分中形成重掺杂的源极和漏极区。 由于氧化物间隔物下面的掺杂区域包括梯度掺杂的轮廓区域,其中掺杂剂的最弱级别与沟道区域相邻(因为更多的锥形栅极电极用作初始注入的掩模),所以在 形成梯度掺杂轮廓区域的第一注入步骤可以高于常规用于形成常规LDD区域的剂量水平。 因此,重掺杂漏极接触区域和沟道区域(包括梯度掺杂分布区域)之间的路径电阻比常规LDD区域的电阻低。

    • A trench mask is formed of two dissimilar layers of material deposited over a substrate. The lower of the two layers is an insulating layer such as silicon dioxide or silicon nitride, or combinations of both, and the upper of the two layers is doped or undoped polysilicon. Together, the two layers are patterned in a first etch step to form a trench mask for subsequent etching of trenches in the substrate. The upper layer is deposited to a thickness "t" related to the desired depth "d" of the trenches to be etched. In a second etch step, the trenches are formed in the substrate. In the case of substantially uniform etching of the polysilicon and the substrate, the thickness of the polysilicon is substantially equal to the desired trench depth. In the case of unequal etching of the polysilicon and the substrate, the thickness of the polysilicon is based on the etch rate disparity. In either case, trench etch endpoint detection is provided by clearing of the polysilicon and consequent exposure of the lower layer of the trench mask. In both cases, loading effects during the second etch step are alleviated, or completely eliminated, because both the upper layer and the substrate are silicon-based materials.
    • 沟槽掩模由沉积在衬底上的两种不同的材料层形成。 两层中较低的一层是绝缘层,如二氧化硅或氮化硅,或两者的组合,两层的上层是掺杂或未掺杂的多晶硅。 一起,在第一蚀刻步骤中图案化两层以形成用于随后蚀刻衬底中的沟槽的沟槽掩模。 上层被沉积成与要蚀刻的沟槽的期望深度“d”相关的厚度“t”。 在第二蚀刻步骤中,在衬底中形成沟槽。 在多晶硅和基板的基本均匀蚀刻的情况下,多晶硅的厚度基本上等于所需的沟槽深度。 在多晶硅和衬底的不均匀蚀刻的情况下,多晶硅的厚度基于蚀刻速率差异。 在任一种情况下,通过清除多晶硅并随后暴露沟槽掩模的下层来提供沟槽蚀刻端点检测。 在这两种情况下,由于上层和衬底都是基于硅的材料,所以在第二蚀刻步骤期间的负载效应被缓解或完全消除。

    • An apparatus for producing a plasma suitable for semiconductor processing at pressures in the low millitorr range. The apparatus includes a vacuum chamber with a dielectric window, a generally planar coil disposed adjacent the window outside the chamber and coupled to an appropriate power source, and a plasma initiator disposed within the chamber. Once the plasma is initiated, the planar coil sustains the plasma by inductive power coupling. In one embodiment the plasma initiator is a secondary electrode disposed within the chamber and coupled to a second RF power source. In an alternative embodiment both the secondary electrode and a target pedestal are coupled to the secondary RF power source through a power splitter. In an alternative embodiment, the plasma initiator is used to ionize a portion of the process gas and provide a plasma that may then inductively couple with the planar coil. Initial ionization of the process gas may be achieved by use of an ultraviolet light source, an ultraviolet laser, a high voltage power source such as a tesla coil, or an electrical arc forming device such as a spark plug.
