            Abstract : 
In this letter, for the first time, the integration benefits of a molecular carborane (CBH-C2B10H12) implant on a state-of-the-art 28-nm logic flow are demonstrated and discussed via advanced modeling. It is shown that, by integrating CBH, pLDD formation can be optimized to provide device benefits via profile/damage engineering.
