Abstract :
The improvement of a 1 ¿m CMOS process using PLASMA SILO as an isolation technique has been evaluated by comparison with a classical LOCOS. The PLASMA SILO provides a reduction of 0.4 ¿m in the channel width loss, and a gain on the narrow channel effect. The other electrical characteristics are maintained (subthreshold characteristics, gate oxide integrity, etc,)
