There is a process for reducing the sheet resistance of phosphorus-implanted poly-silicon. In an example embodiment, there is an MOS transistor structure. The structure has a gate region, drain region and a source region. A method for reducing the sheet resistance of the gate region comprises depositing intrinsic amorphous silicon at a predetermined temperature onto the gate region. An amorphizing species is implanted into the intrinsic amorphous silicon. Phosphorus species are then implanted into the gate region of the MOS transistor structure. A feature of this embodiment includes using Ar+ as the amorphizing species.

A method for fabricating a semiconductor integrated circuit structure having a submicrometer length device element is described wherein a surface isolation pattern is formed in a semiconductor substrate to define regions which are designated to contain devices. A first insulating compound layer is formed on the surface of the semiconductor substrate which is designated to be in part the gate dielectric. Subsequently, a polycrystalline silicon layer is deposited onto the compound layer. The polycrystalline silicon layer is heavily doped by phosphorus ion implantation and annealed below about 850.degree. C. Polycrystalline silicon portions are delineated by photolithography and dry etching. Dry etching is carried out in SF.sub.6 -Cl.sub.2 /He at a low power density of about 0.1 to 0.3 watts/cm.sup.2. The remaining portions of polycrystalline silicon layer are subjected to a thermal oxidation at a temperature of about 800.degree. C. during which controllable quantities of the polycrystalline silicon are consumed. After removal of the thermally grown oxide, polycrystalline silicon portions are obtained with length and thickness dimensions reduced by a desired amount. If polycrystalline silicon portions are to be reduced only in length, the horizontal surfaces of these portions are protected during oxidation by a cap. The cap may include a several nm thick silicon nitride layer which is arranged on a silicon dioxide stress-relieve layer. The method is particularly useful in forming a submicrometer length gate electrode of a field effect transistor.
