ABSTRACT:
In a semiconductor device, an interconnection of differentially doped diffusion regions formed on a substrate includes an interconnecting layer disposed between the two diffusion regions so that the two regions are coupled to one another. The interconnect region is defined by the existing mask boundaries of N+ dopant and P+ dopant regions such that N+ and P+ dopant is not allowed to enter the interconnect region. Thus, the interconnect region is defined without requiring additional masking and etching steps. Once the interconnect region is defined, then the interconnecting layer is formed by a deposition and sintering process. The interconnecting layer provides a schottky barrier and ohmic contact.
