Abstract :
A CMOS process is developed in a research environment for integration studies of sub-50 nm MOSFETs with high-k (HiK) dielectrics, metal gates (MG), ultra-shallow junctions with laser thermal annealing (LTA), raised source/drain (RSD) and novel device architectures (e.g., double-gate transistors, strained channels). We have optimized the process parameters and show that high-performance transistors can be realized, promising direct applicability of the results to future manufacturing.
