Abstract :
A new technology for monolithic smart power circuits has been obtained by the extensive use of ion implantation with a wide range of energy and rapid thermal processes. Using the new technology to realize power devices with comparable or better performance than standard devices employing epitaxial technology is possible. A two micron thick silicon dioxide layer is formed on the wafer. After a photolithographic process, boron is implanted by multiple implantations technique
