20130249021 | Variation Resistant Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET) - Variation resistant metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFET) are manufactured using a high-K, metal-gate ‘channel-last’ process. Between spacers formed over a well area having separate drain and source areas, a cavity is formed. Thereafter an ion implant step through the cavity results in a localized increase in well-doping directly beneath the cavity. The implant is activated by a microsecond annealing which causes minimum dopant diffusion. Within the cavity a recess into the well area is formed in which an active region is formed using an un-doped or lightly doped epitaxial layer. A high-K dielectric stack is formed over the lightly doped epitaxial layer, over which a metal gate is formed within the cavity boundaries. In one embodiment of the invention a cap of poly-silicon or amorphous silicon is added on top of the metal gate. | 09-26-2013 |
