Abstract

A method of forming an integrated circuit device, and in particular a CMOS integrated circuit device, having an improved lightly doped drain region. The methods include the steps of providing a semiconductor substrate with a P type well region and an N type well region. Gate electrodes are formed overlying gate dielectric over each P type well and N type well regions. The present LDD fabrication methods then provide a relatively consistent and easy method to fabricate CMOS LDD regions with N type and P type implants at a combination of different dosages and angles using first and second sidewall spacers, with less masking steps and improved device performance.
