International Classification:
H01L 21336
US Classification:
438301, 438270, 438279
Abstract:
A method of forming two regions having differing depths using a single implantation process is provided. A mask having two openings associated therewith is formed over a semiconductor body, wherein one of the openings has a size larger than an implantation design rule, and the other opening has a size smaller than the design rule. An implant is performed into the semiconductor body through the implant mask, resulting in two distinct doped regions, wherein the region associated with the larger opening has more dopant than the region associated with the smaller opening. Subsequent activation and thermal processing results in the one region diffusing a greater amount than the second region, thereby resulting in two regions formed concurrently having different depths.

Method To Accurately Estimate The Source And Drain Resistance Of A Mosfet
Tathagata Chatterjee - Allen TX, US Joe R. Trogolo - Plano TX, US Kaiyuan Chen - Dallas TX, US Henry Litzmann Edwards - Garland TX, US
Assignee:
Texas Instruments Incorporated - Dallas TX
International Classification:
G01R 31/26
US Classification:
324719, 324769, 438 17
Abstract:
Measurements of parameters of MOS transistors, also known as MOSFETs, such as threshold potentials, require accurate estimates of source and drain series resistance. In cases where connections to the MOSFET include significant external series resistance, as occurs in probing transistors that are partially fabricated or deprocessed, accurate estimates of external resistances are also required. This invention comprises a method for estimating series resistances of MOSFETs, including resistances associated with connections to the MOSFET, such as probe contacts. This method is applicable to any MOSFET which can be accessed on source, drain, gate and substrate terminals, and does not require other test structures or special connections, such as Kelvin connections.
