Optimized reachthrough implant for simultaneously forming an MOS capacitor

摘要

A method of forming a diffusion region in a silicon substrate having low-resistance, acceptable defect density, reliability and process control comprising the steps of: (a) subjecting a silicon substrate to a first ion implantation step, said first ion implantation step being conducted under conditions such that a region of amorphized Si is formed in said silicon substrate; (b) subjecting said silicon substrate containing said region of amorphized Si to a second ion implantation step, said second ion implantation step being carried out by implanting a dopant ion into said silicon substrate under conditions such that the peak of implant of said dopant ion is within the region of amorphized Si; and (c) annealing said silicon substrate under conditions such that said region of amorphized Si is re-crystallized thereby forming a diffusion region in said silicon substrate is provided.
