Abstract
For a 0.25 μm CMOS process a simple and compatible two-step N2O nitridation technology was developed. High quality dielectrics were obtained for both surface channel PMOS and NMOS devices. The use of the nitridation technology improves the gate oxide quality considerably. Furthermore the technology enables the use of BF2+ for gate and drain doping of the PMOS devices. The hot carrier degradation measured at worst case condition (Vga = l/2Vds), results in a slight improvement of lifetime of PMOS devices.
