    Abstract: For fabricating a metal oxide structure on a semiconductor substrate, an active device area surrounded by at least one STI (shallow trench isolation) structure is formed in the semiconductor substrate. A layer of metal is deposited on the semiconductor substrate, and the layer of metal contacts the active device area of the semiconductor substrate. A layer of oxygen blocking material is deposited on the layer of metal. An opening is etched through the layer of oxygen blocking material to expose an area of the layer of metal on top of the active device area. A thermal oxidation process is performed to form a metal oxide structure from reaction of oxygen with the area of the layer of metal that is exposed. A thickness of the metal oxide structure is determined by a thickness of the layer of metal, and the layer of oxygen blocking material prevents contact of oxygen with the layer of metal such that the metal oxide structure is formed localized at the area where the layer of metal is exposed. In this manner, the metal oxide structure is formed by localized thermal oxidation of the layer of metal such that a deposition or sputtering process or an etching process is not necessary for formation of the metal oxide structure. In addition, the thickness of the metal oxide structure is determined by controlling the thickness of the layer of metal used for forming the metal oxide structure. Furthermore, these steps may be repeated for another layer of metal having a different thickness for forming a plurality of metal oxide structures having different thicknesses to provide gate dielectrics of MOSFETs (metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors) having different threshold voltages on the same semiconductor substrate.

    Abstract: A method of fabricating an integrated circuit with a step source/drain junction utilizes a triple amorphization technique. The technique creates a shallow amorphous region, an intermediate region and a deep amorphous region. The doped amorphous regions can be laser-annealed to form step-like source/drain junctions and their extensions. The process can be utilized for P-channel or N-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs).

    Abstract: A semiconductor device is formed having a low voltage transistor in a logic core portion and a high voltage transistor in an input/output portion. The low voltage transistor is formed by ion implanting nitrogen into the surface and forming a gate oxide layer on the nitrogen implanted surface portion of the semiconductor substrate in the logic core region. The implanted nitrogen retards the growth of the gate oxide layer in the nitrogen implanted area, thereby enabling formation of gate oxide layers having different thicknesses.

    Abstract: A method for making a ULSI MOSFET includes depositing a high-k gate insulator on a silicon substrate and then depositing a field oxide layer over the gate insulator. The field oxide layer is masked with photoresist and the photoresist patterned to establish first gate windows, and the oxide below the windows is then etched away to establish first gate voids in the oxide. The first gate voids are filled with a first metallic gate electrode material that is suitable for establishing a gate electrode of, e.g., an N-channel MOSFET. Second gate voids are similarly made in the oxide and filled with a second gate electrode material that is suitable for establishing a gate electrode of, e.g., an P-channel MOSFET or another N-channel MOSFET having a different threshold voltage than the first MOSFET. With this structure, plural threshold design voltages are supported in a single ULSI chip that uses high-k gate insulator technology.
