Abstract

See full text

A method of fabricating a polycide semiconductor element in which a lift-off mask is formed on a first region of a layer of polysilicon. A first dopant is implanted into second regions of the polysilicon which are adjacent the first region, the first region being masked from implantation by the lift-off mask. A layer of silicide is forced over the implanted regions and the lift-off mask and then the lift-off mask and the respective part of the layer of silicide which is deposited thereover are removed thereby to expose the first region. The method may be used to fabricate a resistive device in a polycide semiconductor element. There is also disclosed a semiconductor element, e.g. a resistive device, made by the method.
