Abstract :
A 0.15 /spl mu/m CMOS technology integrating W/WNx/polysilicon gate electrodes and Ti silicided source/drain diffusions is presented in this paper. Gate electrodes with sheet resistance as low as 1.6 /spl Omega//sq. and Ti silicided source/drain diffusions of 3.6 /spl Omega//sq. are realized. As a result, both the gate RC delay and parasitic source/drain resistance are minimized and high circuit performance is achieved.
