Abstract

Utilizing a laser annealing technology, a drastic reduction in polysilicon sheet resistivity has been observed. The technology was successfully applied in MOS fabrication process steps, and practically no degradation in device characteristics was observed. Physical mechanism of polysilicon laser annealing is also presented, through a study of crystalline structure, mobility and carrier concentration, and the thermal instability during the subsequent thermal annealing.
