Abstract

A radiation hardened CMOS formed by applying a radiation hard gate oxide layer on a silicon substrate, applying silicon doped aluminum gates on the gate oxide, and by ion implanting and annealing source and drain regions using said gates as masks at a temperature of or below 500 degrees centigrade. Using an N.sup.- type substrate, a P.sup.+ guard ring is formed at the interface of the P.sup.- well of the N channel MOS device and the N.sup.- substrate before the formation of the gate oxide.
