Abstract
A deep submicron transistor fabrication method that employs only optical lithography involves the formation of a relatively wide aperture using optical techniques; the formation of composite sidewalls having differential etch resistance in the aperture to define a final aperture width less than that available with conventional optical techniques; the etching of the final aperture to expose a controlled channel length; the implantation of the channel through the aperture; and the implantation of source and drain with the sidewalls protecting previously doped LDD regions in the active area.
