Abstract
A method is provided for the formation of ultra-shallow boron doped regions in a semiconductor device. In one embodiment of the invention an N-type semiconductor substrate (15) is provided having a first P-type region formed therein. A dielectric layer (16) is formed on the substrate surface and a material layer (17) doped with fluorinated boron is formed on the dielectric layer (16). A second P-type region (22), characterized by a high dopant concentration at the substrate surface and a uniform junction profile, is formed in the substrate adjacent to the first P-type region by diffusing boron atoms from the material layer (17) through the dielectric layer (16) and into the substrate (15). The second P-type region (22) has a very shallow junction depth which is closer to the substrate surface than the first P-type region.
