Abstract:
A gate insulating film and a gate electrode of non-single crystalline silicon for forming an nMOS transistor are provided on a silicon substrate. Using the gate electrode as a mask, n-type dopants having a relatively large mass number (70 or more) such as As ions or Sb ions are implanted, to form a source/drain region of the nMOS transistor, whereby the gate electrode is amorphized. Subsequently, a silicon oxide film is provided to cover the gate electrode, at a temperature which is less than the one at which recrystallization of the gate electrode occurs. Thereafter, thermal processing is performed at a temperature of about 1000° C., whereby high compressive residual stress is exerted on the gate electrode, and high tensile stress is applied to a channel region under the gate electrode. As a result, carrier mobility of the nMOS transistor is enhanced.
Abstract:
Provided are a semiconductor device having a high breakdown voltage and attaining the restraint of the action of a parasite bipolar transistor, and a method for producing the device. A high-breakdown-voltage p-channel-type transistor included in the semiconductor device has a first n-type semiconductor layer arranged in a semiconductor substrate and at a main-surface-side (upside) of a p-type region in the semiconductor substrate, and a local n-type buried region arranged just below a first p-type dopant region to contact the first n-type semiconductor layer.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device is provided, in which work of a parasitic bipolar transistor can be suppressed and a potential difference can be provided between a source region and a back gate region. A high voltage tolerant transistor formed over a semiconductor substrate includes: a well region of a first conductivity type; a first impurity region as the source region; and a second impurity region as a drain region. The semiconductor device further includes a third impurity region and a gate electrode for isolation. The third impurity region is formed, in planar view, between a pair of the first impurity regions, and from which a potential of the well region is extracted. The gate electrode for isolation is formed over the main surface between the first impurity region and the third impurity region.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device with NMOS and PMOS transistors is provided. The semiconductor device can lessen a short channel effect, can reduce gate-drain current leakage, and can reduce parasitic capacitance due to gate overlaps, thereby inhibiting a reduction in the operating speed of circuits. An N-type impurity such as arsenic is ion implanted to a relatively low concentration in the surface of a silicon substrate (1) in a low-voltage NMOS region (LNR) thereby to form extension layers (61). Then, a silicon oxide film (OX2) is formed to cover the whole surface of the silicon substrate (1). The silicon oxide film (OX2) on the side surfaces of gate electrodes (51-54) is used as an offset sidewall. Then, boron is ion implanted to a relatively low concentration in the surface of the silicon substrate (1) in a low-voltage PMOS region (LPR) thereby to form P-type impurity layers (621) later to be extension layers (62).
