Abstract
A localized oxidation of silicon (LOCOS) process was investigated using nitrogen ion implantation. The doses of 2E12, 2E13, 2E14, and 1E15 atoms/cm2 were implanted through a photoresist mask using the Varian/Extrion 40-100 ion implanter. The results show the initial formation of a LOCOS oxidation. The localized image faded on extended oxidation which indicates the implanted region did not adequately inhibit the diffusion of oxygen.
