Abstract

Gate current leakage is reduced in a submicron FET device by the deposition of an oxide layer over the gate prior to the rapid heating of the device. This is done to prevent the dopant that was implanted into the gate from collecting on the sidewalls of the gate and the oxide layer between gate and substrate. Otherwise the diffused dopant becomes the path of least resistance, thus creating current leakage from the gate to source or gate to drain.
