Description

The sheet resistance of silicon resistors implanted with boron at room temperature has been experimentally determined for doses from 5 x 1012 to 2 x 1016 cm-2. The results have been compared with the calculated values. Two methods for minimizing the temperature coefficients, TCR, are described, and their merits and disadvantages are discussed. For a 1 kΩ resistor, TCR can be reduced to 1000 ppm/0C by implanting 11B+ at low energy, 5 to 10 keV, and to less than 100 ppm/0C by implanting a suitable dose of Ar+ damage. In a two-terminal resistor the end effect of the total sheet resistance on TCR and on voltage coefficient VCR was also investigated. (author)
