    摘要: A method for forming a shallow junction region in a crystalline semiconductor substrate and method for fabricating a semiconductor device having the shallow junction region includes a defect engineering step in which first ions are introduced into a first region of the substrate and vacancies are generated in the first region. During the generation of substrate vacancies, the first region remains substantially crystalline. Interstitial species are generated in a second region and second ions are introduced into the second region to capture the interstitial species. Laser annealing is used to activate dopant species in the first region and repair implantation damage in the second region. The defect engineering process creates a vacancy-rich surface region in which source and drain extension regions having high dopant activation and low sheet resistance are created in an MOS device.

    摘要: A new method is provided for creating an inductor on the surface of a silicon substrate. The invention provides overlying layers of oxide fins beneath a metal inductor. The oxide fins provide the stability support for the overlying metal inductor while also allowing horizontal air columns to simultaneously exist underneath the inductor. Overlying layers of air cavities that are spatially inserted between the created overlying layers of oxide fins can be created under the invention by repetitive application of the mask used. The presence of the air wells on the surface of the substrate significantly reduces parasitic capacitances and series resistance of the inductor associated with the substrate.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for performing nickel salicidation is disclosed. The nickel salicide process typically includes: forming a processed substrate including partially fabricated integrated circuit components and a silicon substrate; incorporating nitrogen into the processed substrate; depositing nickel onto the processed substrate; annealing the processed substrate so as to form nickel mono-silicide; removing the unreacted nickel; and performing a series procedures to complete integrated circuit fabrication. This nickel salicide process increases the annealing temperature range for which a continuous, thin nickel mono-silicide layer can be formed on silicon by salicidation. It also delays the onset of agglomeration of nickel mono-silicide thin-films to a higher annealing temperature. Moreover, this nickel salicide process delays the transformation from nickel mono-silicide to higher resistivity nickel di-silicide, to higher annealing temperature. It also reduces nickel enhanced poly-silicon grain growth to prevent layer inversion. Some embodiments of this nickel salicide process may be used in an otherwise standard salicide process, to form integrated circuit devices with low resistivity transistor gate electrodes and source/drain contacts.
