Abstract: Within a semiconductor fabrication and a method for fabricating the semiconductor fabrication there is provided a series of field effect devices having in a first instance an optional pair of different gate dielectric layer thicknesses, and in a second instance different dopant distribution profiles with respect to a pair of gate electrodes formed upon a pair of gate dielectric layers of a single thickness. The method provides the semiconductor fabrication with multiple gate dielectric layer thicknesses, actual and effective, with enhanced manufacturability and reliability.

Abstract: A method for reducing a dinitrogen (N2) ion concentration in an ion implanter including providing an ion implanter having an ion source chamber for producing source ions said ion source chamber surrounded by a plurality of source magnets having a current supply for altering a position of said source ions; providing a gaseous source of material to the ion source chamber for ionization thereby creating a supply of source ions for implantation; creating a supply of source ions to include dinitrogen (N2) ions and nitrogen (N) ions supplied for implantation; and, increasing a current supply to at least one of the plurality of source magnets such that a ratio of dinitrogen (N2) ions to nitrogen (N) ions supplied for implantation is reduced.
