摘要:
A transistor is provided with a graded source/drain junction. At least two dielectric spacers are formed in sequence upon the gate conductor. Adjacent dielectric spacers have dissimilar etch characteristics. An ion implant follows the formation of at least two of the dielectric spacers to introduce dopants into the source/drain region of the transistor. The ion implants are placed in different positions a spaced distance from the gate conductor according to a thickness of the dielectric spacers. As the implants are introduced further from the channel, the implant dosage and energy is increased. In a second embodiment, the ion implants are performed in reverse order. The dielectric spacers pre-exist on the sidewall surfaces of the gate conductor. The spacers are sequentially removed followed by an ion implant. An etchant is used which attacks the spacer to be removed but not the spacer beneath to the one being removed. Each time, the implants are performed with a lower energy and with a lower dosage so as to grade the junction with lighter concentrations and energies as the implant areas approach the channel. Reversing the implantation process enables high-temperature thermal anneals required for high-concentration low-diffusivity dopants to be performed first. The LDD implant comprises dopants of lower concentration and higher diffusivity requiring lower temperature anneals. Performing lower temperature anneals later in the sequence affords a lessened opportunity for undesirable short-channel effects.

The present invention relates to a transistor of a semiconductor and a method of fabricating the same. In the method, the dual gate electrode may have different widths and is formed using a damascene process. The dual gate electrode is formed using a stacked upper having a first gate electrode and a second gate electrode. The second gate electrode may have a broader width than the lower first gate electrode.
摘要:
A method for producing a thin-film transistor by using a crystalline silicon film that has been formed by using nickel as a metal element for accelerating crystallization of silicon. In forming source and drain regions, phosphorus as an element for gettering nickel is introduced therein by ion implantation. Nickel gettering is effected by annealing. For example, in the case of producing a P-channel thin-film transistor, both phosphorus and boron are used. Boron determines a conductivity type, and phosphorus is used as a gettering material.
