摘要 |
The present invention provides a novel method for increasing the amount of deuterium incorporated into trap sites of a transistor device during a deuterium passivation anneal by electrically pre-stressing the fabricated device prior to a deuterium anneal. The method of the present invention equally applies to SOI and CMOS technology. As a result, the incorporation of more deuterium during a deuterium anneal in the process flow reduces the number of undesirable trap sites.
