Characteristics of short-channel MOSFETs in laser crystallized Si on insulator.

Data are reported on short-channel MOSFET's fabricated in laser crystallized silicon-on-insulator (SOI) structures. In this experiment, special effort was made to minimize enhanced diffusion of dopants from the source and drain regions along grain boundaries. Instead of the standard anneal used for the implant activation, rapid thermal annealing and low temperature furnace annealing were used.
