METHOD OF PRODUCING A LATERALLY DOPED CHANNEL

摘要

A lateral doped channel. A first doping material is implanted substantially vertically into a region adjacent to a gate structure. A diffusion process diffuses the first doping material into a channel region beneath the gate structure. A second doping material is implanted substantially vertically into the region adjacent to a gate structure. The second implantation forms source/drain regions and may terminate the channel region. The channel region thus comprises a laterally non-uniform doping profile which beneficially mitigates the short channel effect and is highly advantageous as compensation for manufacturing process variations in channel length.
