ZERO DRAIN OVERLAP AND SELF-ALIGNED CONTACTS AND CONTACT METHODS FOR MOS DEVICES ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Fabrication techniques are described for the construction of MOS transistors to provide source/drain regions which are self-aligned and non-overlapping with respect to their gate electrode. The non-overlapping feature, along with other optimized device characteristics, are generally provided by defining a gate electrode over a substrate, forming an implant mask of dielectric, for example, on the sides of the gate electrode, and implant- ing a source/drain region such that the implant mask shields a portion of the substrate from implantation to provide a gap between a side edge of the gate electrode and the implanted regions. The source/drain region is then heat driven until its side edge is substantially aligned with the edge of the gate electrode. Self-aligned source/drain contacts are also provided using the implant mask to isolate the gate electrode from the contacts and inter- connects.
