Jw. Jung et al., Two-step rapid thermal annealing (TS-RTA) to suppress out-diffusion of dopants without degrading short channel effect of transistor, IEEE ELEC D, 21(8), 2000, pp. 376-377
We examined effects of source/drain annealing condition on the gate sheet r
esistance and short channel effect. We found that two-step rapid thermal an
nealing (TS-RTA) technology, where 700 degrees C, 3 min pre-annealing in O-
2 is introduced before 1000 degrees C anneal in N-2, suppressed dopant out-
diffusion without degrading short channel effect of transistor.
