ABSTRACT:
First and second conductivity type regions are produced in a polysilicon layer using only a single masking step. In one embodiment, the polysilicon layer is doped to a first conductivity type. A first oxide layer is then formed and patterned over the polysilicon layer to cover a first region and expose a second region of the polysilicon layer. The exposed second region of the polysilicon layer is then counter-doped, with the first oxide layer acting as a mask to prevent counter-doping of the underlying first region of the polysilicon layer. In accordance with the present invention, n-channel devices with n-type or p-type polysilicon gates and p-channel devices with p-type or n-type polysilicon gates can be formed without having to add a single process step. Thus, n-channel and p-channel devices with two different threshold voltages can be realized without adding a single process step.
