The measured minimum gate length Lg (the physical gate length) is 0.21 mu m. This process provides high punchthrough resistance and high current driving capability while maintaining low impurity concentration in the well (less than 5*10/sup 16/ cm/sup -3/). The drain junction capacitance is decreased by 30% for N-MOSFET, and by 49% for P-MOSFET, compared to conventional LDD (lightly doped drain) devices. It is found that a dual gate CMOS fabricated by the SPI technology achieves high-speed circuit performance.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":13885,"journal":{"name":"International Electron Devices Meeting 1991 [Technical Digest]","volume":"8 1","pages":"641-644"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85443352","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The peak mobility rises to 970 cm/sup 2//V-s at 90 K. This corresponds to a 50% enhancement in the effective mobility over Si control devices at room temperature and enhancements of over 100% at 90 K. The mobility of MOS-gated Ge/sub x/Si/sub 1-x/ buried channel transistors can be effectively modeled at room temperature by considering the dependence of the surface scattering on the average separation of carriers from the Si/SiO/sub 2/ interface. The mobility for devices with a 75-AA and a 105-AA Si spacer layer was tested and accurately modeled at room temperature using parameters extracted from a Si control device. At low temperatures ( approximately 90 K) an additional scattering term must be included to better fit the data. It is suggested that this additional term could result from alloy scattering in the Ge/sub x/Si/sub 1-x/ channel.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":13885,"journal":{"name":"International Electron Devices Meeting 1991 [Technical Digest]","volume":"6 Suppl 2 1","pages":"29-32"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81995436","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The resistivity of the copper film is as low as 1.78 mu Omega cm at room temperature, which is almost identical to the bulk resistivity. The electromigration lifetime of the copper interconnect is three to five orders of magnitude larger than that of Al-Si-based alloy interconnects. Furthermore, a novel accelerated-electromigration-testing method has been developed to evaluate such long-lifetime copper interconnects within a short period of test time. The method has made it possible to perform comparative studies of various interconnect materials in a very efficient way to establish large-electromigration-resistance interconnection technology.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":13885,"journal":{"name":"International Electron Devices Meeting 1991 [Technical Digest]","volume":"11 1","pages":"285-288"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82018747","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When the annealing temperature is higher and the gate oxide thickness is thinner, larger boron penetration is observed for p/sup +/ poly-Si PMOSFETs. As a dopant for poly-Si gates, BF/sub 2/ causes larger boron penetration. However, PMOSFET lifetime does not depend on the degree of boron penetration, but on doping species (BF/sub 2/ or boron). PMOSFETs with BF/sub 2/-implanted gates have about 100 times longer lifetime than those with boron-implanted gates, because electron trapping in the gate oxide with the BF/sub 2/-implanted gate is smaller due to the incorporation of fluorine. The maximum allowed supply voltage, based on the hot-carrier reliability, is higher than mod -4 mod V for sub half-micron PMOSFETs with p/sup +/ poly Si gates.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":13885,"journal":{"name":"International Electron Devices Meeting 1991 [Technical Digest]","volume":"10 1","pages":"533-536"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82413233","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the present work, a physical model of infrared absorption in silicon is used to determine the dominant absorption mechanisms in the relevant temperature and wavelength ranges. The model is then used to predict the ultimate temperature ranges of applicability of the technique and to show the effects of heavy doping. Since free carrier absorption dominates at wavelengths over 1.55 mu m, approximately 850 degrees C may be estimated as an upper limit for the technique of silicon temperature measurement by infrared transmission. Because bandgap absorption dominates at short wavelengths, the technique may be extended to temperatures as low as 77 K.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":13885,"journal":{"name":"International Electron Devices Meeting 1991 [Technical Digest]","volume":"2000 1","pages":"895-898"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88298226","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The steady-state is caused by a balance between avalanche hot electron injection into the floating gate and avalanche hot hole injection into the floating gate, and can be controlled easily by the channel doping. Tight distribution of threshold voltages and stable erasure without over-erased cells are demonstrated by applying cells using 0.6- mu m CMOS technology.
