Abstract
Within a method for fabricating a microelectronic fabrication comprising a topographic microelectronic structure formed over a substrate, there is implanted, while employing a first ion implant method and while masking a portion of the substrate adjacent the topographic microelectronic structure but not masking the topographic microelectronic structure, the topographic microelectronic structure to form an ion implanted topographic microelectronic structure without implanting the substrate. There is also implanted, while employing a second ion implant method, the portion of the substrate adjacent the topographic microelectronic substrate to form therein an ion implant structure. The method is particularly useful for fabricating source/drain regions with shallow junctions within field effect transistor (FET) devices.
