A method of forming an integrated circuit with a semiconductor substrate is provided. A gate dielectric is formed on the semiconductor substrate, and a gate is formed on the gate dielectric. A raised source/drain layer is formed on the semiconductor substrate adjacent the gate and the gate dielectric. An amorphized shallow source/drain extension implanted region is formed in the raised source/drain layer and the semiconductor substrate therebeneath. The amorphized region is then recrystallized to form a shallow source/drain extension having residual recrystallization damage elevated into the raised source/drain layer.

A structure, for testing relative to an MOS transistor, closely resembles the MOS transistor of interest. For example, certain dimensions and a number of dopant concentrations typically are substantially the same in the test structure as found in corresponding elements of the MOS transistor of interest. However, the regions of the test structure corresponding to the source and drain of the transistor have no halos or extensions that might cause gate overlap; and in the test structure, these regions are of a semiconductor type opposite the type found in the source and drain of the transistor. The test structure enables accurate measurement of the gate-body current, for modeling floating body effects and/or for direct electrical measurement of gate length.

摘要:
A structure for testing relative to an MOS transistor, can be easily constructed as part of the CMOS process flow. A doped device well is formed, for example, in a silicon-on-insulator structure. The concentration level in the well corresponds to that for a well of the transistor. Gate insulator and polysilicon layers are formed, and the polysilicon is implanted with dopant, to a concentration level expected in the transistor gate. After gate patterning, the methodology involves forming sidewall spacers and implanting dopant into the active device well, to form regions in the test structure corresponding to the transistor source and drain. Although the concentrations mimic those in the transistor source and drain, these test structure regions are doped with opposite type dopant material. The test structure enables accurate measurement of the gate-body current, for modeling floating body effects and/or for measurement of gate length.
