Method for making transistor having reduced series resistance

摘要

A transistor having reduced series resistance and method for producing the same. The method reduces transistor series resistance by implanting nitrogen into an nLDD/Source/Drain extension region of the transistor. The nitrogen implantation in connection with the implantation of a conventional n-type dopant (e.g. arsenic or phosphorus), results in a transistor having low series resistance, reduced hot carrier effects and no significant increase in source/drain extension overlap.
