ABSTRACT:
The present invention facilitates semiconductor device operation and fabrication by providing a cap-annealing process that improves channel electron mobility without substantially degrading PMOS transistor devices. The process uses an oxide
itride composite cap to alter the active dopant profile across the channel regions. During an annealing process, dopants migrate out of the Si/SiO2 in a channel region thereby altering the dopant profile of the channel region. This altered profile generally improves channel mobility thereby improving transistor performance and permitting smaller density designs.
