High performance 30 nm bulk CMOS for 65 nm technology node (CMOS5)

In this paper, we demonstrate high performance CMOS devices developed for the 65 nm technology node. The gate length is shrunk down to 30 nm. The gate oxide is nitrided oxide of 1 nm EOT with an abrupt nitrogen profile. In order to satisfy both the high activation of the gate polysilicon and suppression of the short channel effect, we applied high dose PMOS doping and low temperature spike anneal to the source and drain. Junction leakage is suppressed by applying nickel silicide in such shallow deep junctions. At a supply voltage of 0.85 V, high drive currents (700 /spl mu/A//spl mu/m at Ioff=100 nA//spl mu/m for nMOSFET and 300 /spl mu/A//spl mu/m at Ioff=100 nA//spl mu/m for pMOSFET) and low CV/I values (0.71 ps at Ioff=100 nA//spl mu/m for nMOSFET and 1.41 ps at Ioff=100 nA//spl mu/m for pMOSFET) are achieved. They are the best among published data.
