ABSTRACT:
In an integrated circuit, dopant concentration levels are adjusted by making use of a perforated mask. Doping levels for different regions across an integrated circuit can be differently defined by making use of varying size and spacings to the perforations in the mask. The diffusion of dopant is completed by making use of an annealing stage.
