ABSTRACT:
The present invention discloses a method to simultaneously fabricate the self-aligned silicided devices and ESD protective devices in a substrate. A functional region and a ESD protective region are defined on the substrate and each region has a gate structure. Firstly, lightly doped drain (LDD) regions are formed in both of the region by an ion implantation process. An N-type conducting dopants are implanted into the ESD protective region. Afterwards, the spacers of the gate structures are defined for isolation. A thermal oxidation process is done to grow a thin pad oxide on the functional region and a thicker pad oxide on the ESD protective region. A blanket implantation is performed on all NMOS device. After the implantation process, a RTP process is done to activate the dopants in the substrate and to recover implant damages. Finally, the thin pad oxide layer is removed by using a wet etching process and a self-aligned silicide layers are defined on the gate, source and drain regions of the functional region.
