ABSTRACT:
A region in an integrated circuit substrate is formed by first ion implanting impurities of a selected conductivity-determining type into a semiconductor substrate through at least one aperture in a masking electrically insulative layer, and then diffusing a conductivity-determining impurity of the same type through the same aperture into said substrate.
The method has particular application when the electrically insulative layer is a composite of two layers, e.g., a top layer of silicon nitride and a bottom layer of silicon dioxide and the aperture is thus a pair of registered openings respectively through said silicon nitride and silicon dioxide layers, and the aperture through the silicon dioxide layer has greater lateral dimensions than that in the silicon nitride layer to provide an undercut beneath the silicon nitride ion implantation barrier layer.
