  • Patent number: 5121186
    Abstract: A method for forming a contact to a selective region of an integrated circuit characterized by the steps of: forming a layer of refractory metal over and around the selected region; forming a layer of amorphous silicon over the layer of refractory metal; patterning the amorphous silicon in to an elongated strip which extends away from the selected region; annealing the integrated circuit to convert the strip of amorphous silicon into a silicide path; and removing the unreacted refractory metal. The method of the present invention can be used to extend a contact to the source, drain, or gate of a MOSFET from the top of an adjacent section of field oxide, and can also be used as a method for local interconnection of IC devices, such as CMOS devices.
