Abstract :
This work deals with the simulation of two-dimensional impurity diffusion in CMOS silicon devices. The reverse modeling method was used to determine the diffusion coefficient (DI), surface recombination rate of defects (KI) and the characteristics of the injecting source. Analysis showed similarity between DI in the 2D system compared with the value obtained from non-patterned samples. The results for DI and KI are very well described by the Arrhenius expressions. DI was found to be related to the substrate type e.g. EPI or CZ. The values of KI related to the interface type, oxidizing or nonoxidizing (SiO2 or Si3N4).
