Abstract

Latchup free lateral CMOS transistors with PMOS devices in the laser recrystallized silicon and the NMOS devices in the bulk silicon were fabricated. One micron thick field oxide isolates the PMOS devices in the recrystallized silicon from the NMOS devices in the bulk wafer. The seed area for recrystallization was used for the fabrication of the NMOS devices. An oxide layer of 0.1um thickness was used to protect the channel region of the NMOS devices during the laser recrystallization. The effect of this channel protect-oxide is discussed and the characteristics of the NMOS devices with and without the channel protect oxide are compared.
