ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device and manufacturing method is provided in which asymmetric source/drain regions are formed using a self aligning implant mask. A gate electrode is formed on a substrate and a dielectric layer is formed over the substrate and adjacent the gate electrode. A masking layer is formed over the dielectric layer and the gate electrode and selectively removed to form an implant mask. The implant mask extends further over a first side of the gate electrode than a second side of the gate electrode. Using the implant mask for alignment, a dopant is implanted into the active regions of the substrate adjacent the gate electrode to form a first heavily-doped region adjacent the first side of the gate electrode and second heavily-doped region adjacent the second side of the gate electrode. The first heavily-doped region is spaced further from the gate electrode than the second heavily-doped region. Contacts may be formed to the masking layer or a silicide layer formed from the masking layer.
