摘要:
An IGFET that minimizes the effect of the dislocation at the edge of the device region by displacing the lateral edges of the source and drain regions from the adjacent edge of the opening and the dislocation. This minimizes the lateral diffusion of the source and drain impurities and the formation of metal silicides into the dislocation region. The spacing of the lateral edges of the source and drain regions from the adjacent edge of the opening and the dislocation region is produced by providing additional lateral opposed second gate regions or oxide barrier layer extending from the oxide layer into the adjacent regions of the substrate region and the first gate region extending therebetween. Both the first gate region and the two second gate regions or barrier layer are used in the self-aligned processing of the source and drain regions. The first gate region defines the length of the channel, while the two opposed second gate regions or barrier layer define the width of the channel region. The second gate portion or barrier extends sufficiently into the substrate region to space the width of the channel from the adjacent edge of the opening in the oxide.

This disclosure describes an improved process and resulting structure that allows a single masking step to be used to define both the body and the threshold adjustment layer of the body. The method consists of forming a first mask on a surface of a substrate with an opening exposing a first region of the substrate; implanting through the opening a first impurity of a first conductivity type and having a first diffusion coefficient; and implanting through the opening a second impurity of the first conductivity type and having a second diffusion coefficient lower than the first diffusion coefficient. The first and second impurities are then co-diffused to form a body region of a field effect transistor. The remainder of the device is formed.
