Abstract
An improved self-aligned conductive gate member formed by suppressing or decreasing the size of the as-deposited grains of polysilicon and by suppressing further grain growth which may occur during a subsequent annealing or processing step. By maintaining the as-deposited grains as small as possible, the initiation of intergranular voids is minimized.
