Conventional well (depth and profilecontrolled by diffusion drive-in)

Retrograde well (depth and profilecontrolled by implantation energy and dose)

Retrograde Well

- formed by high energy (>200keV) implantation

Lecture 21EE143 S06

1) Very low thermal budget for well formation(no need for diffusion drive-in)

2) Retrograde Well is formed AFTER field oxidation⇒ small lateral diffusion and localized high conc under FOX

Conventional vs Retrograde Well
