ABSTRACT:
A method to simultaneously fabricate the self-aligned silicided devices and electrostatic discharge devices is disclosed. A substrate is provided, a functional region and an electrostatic discharge region are defined on the substrate, gates of the regions are formed, lightly doping drain is formed in the substrate, a pad silicon nitride is formed on the electrostatic discharge region, spacers of the functional region is formed, a refractory metal is deposited or sputtered on the functional region, a two-step salicide process is performed on the substrate and a salicide layer is formed on the surface of the functional region, a high-energy implantation is performed on the substrate to form the active regions of the functional device and the electrostatic discharge device, a thick field oxide is formed on the surface of the substrate and a rapid thermal processing anneal is performed on the substrate to form an ultra-shallow junction of the functional devices.
