摘要
The influence of point-like and extended defects on MOS devices is discussed. Our analysis considers only a particular class of devices, random access memories (RAMs), since these involve the major difficulties. Point-like defects are usually removed by a suitable gettering technique, with care being taken not to introduce further extended defects in addition to the ones already present on the silicon slice. An extensive analysis of the electrically active defectivity of commercially available silicon wafers is reported and the influence of defectivity on RAM yield is discussed. © 1979.
