Abstract
A novel approach to the SSR channel profile formation for MOSFETs is suggested, with dopant implantation in the late stages of the processing, with the gate, source/drain already in (`TGi'). Only a single damage/activation anneal and the back-end thermal budget are experienced by the implanted dopants, which results in steep profiles even when light boron ions are used. High-performance NMOS devices with excellent SCE control designed for low-voltage digital, analog and RF operation were realized using this technique. For PMOS the use of TGi is restricted by significant diffusion of source/drain extensions due to the TGi damage induced TED.
