ABSTRACT:
There is a process for reducing the sheet resistance of phosphorus-implanted poly-silicon. In an example embodiment, there is an MOS transistor structure. The structure has a gate region, drain region and a source region. A method for reducing the sheet resistance of the gate region comprises depositing intrinsic amorphous silicon at a predetermined temperature onto the gate region. An amorphizing species is implanted into the intrinsic amorphous silicon. Phosphorus species are then implanted into the gate region of the MOS transistor structure. A feature of this embodiment includes using Ar+ as the amorphizing species.
