ABSTRACT:
A process is disclosed for forming one or more doped regions beneath the surface of a single crystal semiconductor substrate, such as retrograde wells or deeper source/drain regions, by implantation at low energy which comprises orienting the crystal lattice of the semiconductor substrate, with respect to the axis of the implantation beam, i.e., the path of the energized atoms in the implantation beam, to maximize the number of implanted atoms which pass between the atoms in the crystal lattice. This results in the peak concentration of implanted atoms in the crystal lattice of the single crystal semiconductor substrate being deeper than the peak concentration of implanted atoms in the substrate would be if the axis of the implantation beam were not so oriented with respect to the crystal lattice of the semiconductor substrate during implantation.
