A new process for a counter-doped region suitable for a 0.15μm (gate length) buried channel (BC) pMOSFET is presented. At present serious short-channel effects of BC p-MOSFETs are recognized broadly as prohibitive for application at 0.1μm. Inorder to realize 0.15μm BC pMOSFETs, we propose a new process step, making use of a son solid phase diffused channel (SPDC) from a Boron-doped silicate glass (BSG) to form an extremely shallow counter-doped region, which enables suppression ofshort-channel effects. Devices fabricated in this way exhibit good short-channel behavior at 0.15μm gate length and, additionally, provide an excellent current driving-ability. Threshold voltage control is easy by optimizing the diffusion condition. Wepropose SPDC as a suitable process applicable to 0.2-0.1μm BC p-MOSFE.
