    摘要: In accordance with the present invention, an amorphous layer is formed in a crystalline substrate (e.g., the channel region of a MOSFET transistor) by, for example, implanting ions of an inert specie such as germanium. A dopant is implanted so that it overlaps with the amorphous layer. Subsequently, low temperature recrystallization of the amorphous layer leads to an abrupt retrograded layer of active dopant in the channel region of the MOSFET. This retrograded dopant layer could be formed before or after the formation of the gate electrode.

    摘要: A shallow abrupt junction is formed in a single crystal substrate, for example, to form a pn junction in a diode or a source drain extension in a transistor. An amorphous layer is formed at the surface of the substrate by implanting an electrically inactive ion, such as germanium or silicon, into the substrate. The amorphous/crystalline interface between the amorphous layer and the base crystal substrate is located at the depth of the desired junction. A dopant species, such as boron, phosphorus or arsenic is implanted into the substrate so that peak concentration of the dopant is at least partially within the amorphous layer. The amorphous layer can be formed either before or after the implanting of the dopant species. A low temperature anneal is used to recrystallize the amorphous layer through solid phase epitaxy, which also activates the dopant within the amorphous layer. The dopant located beneath the original amorphous/crystalline interface remains inactive. Thus, an abrupt junction is formed at the depth of the original amorphous/crystalline interface. Formation of such a shallow abrupt junction is useful in devices such as diodes and transistors, including bipolar, MOSFET and CMOS, and may be used to form source drain extensions and halo regions. Subsequent processing of the substrate has a thermal budget that is approximately equal to or less than the temperature used for the low temperature anneal.

    摘要: A thin filmed fully-depleted silicon-on-insulator (SOI) metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) utilizes a local insulation structure. The local insulative structure includes a buried silicon dioxide region under the channel region. The MOSFET body thickness is very small and yet silicon available outside of the channel region and buried silicon dioxide region is available for sufficient depths of silicide in the source and drain regions. The buried silicon dioxide region can be formed by a trench isolation technique or a LOCOS technique.

    摘要: A method for manufacturing an integrated circuit using damascene processes is provided in which planar surfaces of contacting conductive metal channels and vias are subjected to chemical-mechanical polishing under a pressure which avoids cold working and to two steps of chemical-mechanical polishing in which the first step is performed using a slurry with a first sized abrasive to expose a first dielectric layer in which the conductive metal channel is embedded and to provide a planar polished surface of the conductive material, and a second step is performed using a second slurry with a second sized abrasive larger than said first sized abrasive to provide a planar rough-polished surface of the conductive material. The second polishing also performed at a pressure which avoids cold working, which causes a highly polycrystalline structure and a high dislocation density, in the conductive material at its planar polished surface.

    摘要: Ultra shallow, low resistance LDD junctions are achieved by forming an LDD implant generating an interstitial-rich section and forming a sub-surface, non-amorphous region generating a vacancy-rich region substantially overlapping the interstitial rich region generated when forming the LDD implant. Embodiments include ion implanting, Ge or Si to form surface amorphous and sub-surface, non-amorphous regions, and implanting B or BF.sub.2 to form the impurity region. Embodiments include forming the sub-surface, non-amorphous region before or after generating the surface amorphous region, and forming the impurity region before or after forming the sub-surface, non-amorphous region but after forming the surface amorphous region.

    摘要: A method is provided for forming tantalum adhesion/barrier layers on semiconductor channels or in vias in low dielectric constant, fluorinated dielectric layers. The dielectric layers are defluorinated using hydrogen, ammonia, methane, or silane plasma and a subsequent tantalum deposition forms a less fluorine reactive tantalum carbide or tantalum silicide. Tantalum or tantalum nitride is then deposited over the less reactive form of tantalum to form the adhesion/barrier for deposition of a subsequent seed layer and a conductive material to form the vias and channels.
