N-Well Fabrication:
•Here we take P-substrate blank wafer.
•Where we take n+ as the Drain and Source
•Channel is created between n-well.
•Fourth terminal as P+ diffusion region
Step No : 01
•Firstly, we take P-substrate because we have to form N-Well fabrication.
•There is a blank wafer on which we make substrate
P-Substrate
Blank WaferP-Substrate
Oxidation
We put P-Substrate in the furnace where temperature is 1000°C
Oxidation Process is done by high oxygen and hydrogen purity.
This Oxidation layer is basically used for insulation and also for the Gates.
Si + O2 → SiO2
Si + 2 H2O → SiO2 + 2 H2

Oxidation On P-Substrate
P-Substrate
SiO2
We clearly see the Silicon
Dioxide Layer on P-
Substrate
Step N0 : 02
•A light sensitive Polymer
•That’s soften upon exposed to light.
•After getting elusion spin at 300 rpm
•To get uniform layers of photo-sensitive material Approximately 0.5-1µm
P-substrate
SiO2
Photo Resistor
Masking
•Process Of transferring a desire pattern on wafer
•Mainly known as Optical mask.
•Expose to light through optical mask
•Types of masking:
Direct Contact
Proximity
Projection
N-Mask
•N-Mask is opaque and transparent
regions.
•These Plates are placed on different on
Wafer and place very precisely

Photo Resistor
•Negative photo resist ,this area is hardened and
exposed to UV rays.
•Positive Photo resist layer become soften
and removed by acidic or basic solution
•Wafer is immersed in acidic and basic solution and clean the exposed layer of photo
resistor
•Depends on the material used to be etched out
•Example like in Silicon or Poly silicon we use Hydro fluoric Acid
•Nitride we use phosphoric Acid

•Like we use fuming Nitric acid or exposure to Oxides
•Finally Removes the photo resistive layer or protective Layer

Step No : 05
•Make selective Diffusion Only by two steps
Pre-Deposition
Drive-In
Pre-Deposition:
•Wafer is heated in 1000°C
•Doping atoms like (Phosphorus and Boron with Inert Gas)
•Diffusion is placed on the silicon forming a saturation of Dopant atom.
•Temperature goes to 1300°C
•Concentration depends on Duration of Doping
Drive-In
•Wafer is heated in inert Gases
•Distributes Atoms more uniformly
and to higher depth

•Now again take a chemical reaction of
wafer with HF(Hydro fluoric acid)
•Only to Remove the silicon dioxide layer
•Poly silicon layer is generally formed by silane at
about 1000°C
•This Layer is generally thick oxides layer
•Then silicon is reacted with the oxygen at
700°C to give Aluminum and nitride and also
silicon dioxide deposited on the Wafer.
•Aluminum is then vaporized to
deposited on the wafer
P-substrate
N-Well
Thin Gate Oxide:
•Conducting layer that
connect the underlying
source or drain.
•Dielectric layer that
separate gate terminal
from source or drain.
•Layer is normally compose
of Aluminum or dry
oxides.
P-substrate
N-
Well
Photo
Resist
•We first put a photo resist on the
Poly silicon layer
•Then we put a masking on which
part we want to aligned
•Thin gate Oxide are made for
transistors.
•Poly silicon is used because it
doesn’t melt in the further process.

Self Alignment
•Poly silicon gives precise alignment for the source and Drain
•Now, protective layer of Oxide is form
•Use Masking process to make small gaps for n+ doping

•Low temperature Process
•Doping ion are accelerated to target solid material
•Changes electrical ,Physical and chemical properties
Advantages:
•Precise Control of Dose and Depth
•Wide selection of Masking
Material like(photo resist , oxide,
poly silicon)
•Less sensitive to surface cleaning
process
•Use in semi-conductor fabrication
