Abstract
A two step source/drain annealing process which permits a dopant to be ion implanted directly into the silicon without a protective oxide. The gate oxide is removed before the ion implantation of the dopant occurs, thus the dopant is implanted directly into bare silicon. In a first step of the annealing process, a thin oxide is grown over the source and drain regions at a relatively low temperature (e.g., 600.degree. C.) this temperature to prevent the evaporation of the dopant from the silicon substrate and polysilicon gate. The second step of the annealing process occurs at a higher temperature allowing the dopant to be driven into the substrate forming the source and drain regions.
