Process for forming twin well CMOS integrated circuits

摘要

A complementary insulated gate field effect transistor comprises a semiconductor body having an effectively planar surface, the semiconductor body containing complementary conductivity type wells in which complementary transistors are formed. A field insulator layer is selectively formed on the surface of the body, the field insulator layer being hardened against radiation. That portion of the planar surface of the body on which the field insulator layer is formed is not lower than respective surface portions on which first and second gate insulator layers of the complementary conductivity type transistors are formed. In addition to respective gates, and source and drain region pairs, the complementary transistors have insulative spacers which abut sidewalls of the first and second gates and the field insulator layer and extend over portions of the source and drain regions.
