A plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition process for producing a fluorinated silicon nitride layer on a substrate is disclosed. The process utilizes a mixture of silane, perfluorosilane and nitrogen to produce films of high conformality and stability. The silane and perfluorosilane in the mixture are in a ratio of 0.05 to 1 on a volume basis. The preferred silane is SiH.sub.4 and the preferred perfluorosilane is SiF.sub.4.

摘要:
A process for forming a thin film on a surface of a semiconductor device. The process involves formation of a silicon dioxide film by plasma enhanced thermal oxidation, employing a mixture of ozone and oxygen which are generated separately from the reactor chamber in a volume ratio of about 1-10/1, preferably about 5-7/1, at a temperature generally below 440.degree. C., preferably about 350.degree.-400.degree. C. The process is used to form sidewall oxide spacers on polysilicon gates for field effect transistors. A relatively fast oxidation rate is achieved at a temperature significantly below that employed in conventional oxidation processes, and this serves to reduce dopant diffusion from the polysilicon. In addition, the resulting film demonstrates low stress with good conformal step coverage of the polysilicon gates. Another use of the process is to grow thin gate oxides and oxide-nitride-oxide with a thickness of less than 100 .ANG.. An oxide film of uniform thickness is formed by controlling the temperature, RF power, exposure time and oxygen/ozone ratio for thin gate oxide (

Disclosed is a process for depositing a conformal polymer coating on selected areas of a silicon substrate. The substrate is first exposed through a mask to a gaseous plasma so as to form a film of desired pattern, the plasma comprising a compound having strong electron donating characteristics. Then, the patterned film and the remaining substrate not covered by the film are exposed to the vapor of a monomer, which condenses and polymerizes on the exposed substrate surfaces, but not on the film. The film serves to inhibit substantial deposition of the coating, so as to provide a selective deposition, where the coating is formed only on those areas of the substrate where desired.

摘要:
Disclosed is a method and structure for altering an integrated circuit design having silicon over insulator (SOI) transistors. The method/structure prevents damage from charging during processing to the gate of SOI transistors by tracing electrical nets in the integrated circuit design, identifying SOI transistors that may have a voltage differential between the source/drain and gate as potentially damaged SOI transistors (based on the tracing of the electrical nets), and connecting a shunt device across the source/drain and the gate of each of the potentially damaged SOI transistors. Alternatively, the method/structure provides for connecting compensating conductors through a series device.
摘要:
Disclosed is a Zener diode having a scalable reverse-bias breakdown voltage (Vb) as a function of the position of a cathode contact region relative to the interface between adjacent cathode and anode well regions. Specifically, cathode and anode contact regions are positioned adjacent to corresponding cathode and anode well regions and are further separated by an isolation region. However, while the anode contact region is contained entirely within the anode well region, one end of the cathode contact region extends laterally into the anode well region. The length of this end can be predetermined in order to selectively adjust the Vb of the diode (e.g., increasing the length reduces Vb of the diode and vice versa). Also disclosed are an integrated circuit, incorporating multiple instances of the diode with different reverse-bias breakdown voltages, a method of forming the diode and a design structure for the diode.
