Abstract: A semiconductor manufacturing process for producing MOS integrated circuits having two gate oxide thickness is provided. A first gate dielectric is formed on an upper surface of a semiconductor substrate. Thereafter, a masking layer is deposited on the first dielectric layer and patterned such that the first dielectric layer is exposed above a second region of the semiconductor substrate. The semiconductor wafer is then subjected to a thermal oxidation process such that a second gate dielectric is formed within the exposed second region of the semiconductor substrate. The second gate dielectric preferably has an oxide thickness that is unequal to the oxide thickness of the first gate dielectric layer. Thereafter, gate structures and source/drain structures are fabricated such that the integrated circuit includes a first transistor having a first gate dielectric thickness and a second transistor having a second gate dielectric thickness.
