M. Tsuno et al., Suppression of reverse-short-channel effect in sub -0.1 mu m n-MOSFETs with Sb S/D implantation, ELECTR LETT, 35(6), 1999, pp. 508-509
A study is presented into the reverse-short-channel effect (RSCE) for Sb S/
D ion implantation at 10 keV. A high impurity concentration is found to red
uce interstitial movement in the channel, which restricts the level RSCE at
short-channel lengths. The interstitials can be healed by thermal treatmen
t at 850 degrees C directly after ion implantation, resulting in the suppre
ssion of the RSCE.
