Method for fabricating a simplified CMOS polysilicon thin film transistor and resulting structure
First Claim
1. A MOS structure, comprising:
- two first activated areas of a first field effect transistor, said two first activated areas having a first conductivity type and being laterally spaced apart from one another;
two second activated areas of a second field effect transistor adjacent said first field effect transistor, said two second activated areas having a second conductivity type opposite said first conductivity type;
an isolation barrier comprising dielectric material and disposed between a first activated area and a second activated area, said isolation barrier having at most the same height as at least said second activated area; and
an interconnect comprising conductive material, said interconnect including at least one downwardly extending member to communicate with said first activated area and said second activated area.

Abstract
A method of forming a MOS device using doped and activated n-type and p-type polysilicon layers includes forming a first doped and activated polysilicon area (either n-type and p-type) on a substrate. An isolation material layer is formed abutting the first activated area. A second doped and activated polysilicon area of opposite conductivity type from the first activated area is formed adjacent to the isolation material layer. The second activated opposite area has a height that does not exceed that of the first doped and activated polysilicon layer. Further processing may be effected to complete the MOS device. The method of the present invention eliminates ion implantation and annealing steps used in previously existing methods.
