  • Abstract
    A fabrication process for the Lightly Doped Drain/Source Field-Effect Transistor, LDDFET, that utilizes RIE produced SiO2 sidewall spacers is described. The process is compatible with most conventional polysilicon-gated FET processes and needs no additional photo-masking steps. Excellent control and reproducibility of the n- region of the LDD device are obtained. Measurements from dynamic clock generators have shown that LDDFET´s have as much as 1.9x performance advantage over conventional devices.
