Integrated circuit transistor.

摘要

A method for fabricating an integrated circuit transistor begins with doping the substrate in the device active areas after field oxide regions have been formed. This dopant helps to reduce short channel transistor effects. A thin layer of epitaxial silicon is then grown over the substrate active regions. A field effect transistor is formed in the epitaxial layer and underlying substrate. The transistor channel region is in the relatively lightly doped epitaxial layer, but the underlying doped substrate layer helps minimize short channel effects. <IMAGE>
