  • Abstract
    A CMOS VLSI technology using p- and p+ poly gates for NMOS and PMOS devices is presented. Due to the midgap work function of the p- poly gate, the NMOS native threshold voltage is 0.7 V and, therefore, no additional threshold adjust implantation is required. The NMOS transistor is a surface-channel device with improved field-effect mobility and lower body effect due to the reduction in the channel doping concentration. In addition, the p - poly gate is shown to be compatible with p+ poly-gated surface-channel PMOS devices
