1. A method for producing a transistor, the method comprising the steps of:
- (a) forming on a substrate between two source/drain regions, a gate region on top of a dielectric region, the dielectric region including areas which overlay the drain/source regions;
(b) performing an implant to dope the source/drain regions;
(c) performing a tilted angle nitrogen implant to implant nitrogen into the areas of the dielectric region overlaying the drain/source regions of the transistor; and
,(d) forming spacer regions on sides of the gate region after the tilted angle nitrogen implant performed in step (c).

Abstract
A transistor is formed which has improved hot carrier immunity. On a substrate, between two source/drain regions, a gate region is formed over a dielectric region. An implant is used to dope the source/drain regions. After doping the source/drain regions, a tilted angle nitrogen implant is performed to implant nitrogen into areas of the dielectric region overlaying the drain/source regions of the transistor. The tilted angle nitrogen implant may be performed before or after forming spacer regions on sides of the gate region.
