AbstractPolysilicon gates are an important element of modem MOS integrated circuit technology. The workfunction difference (ϕps) between the polysilicon gate and the silicon substrate is a vital parameter of the MOS system because it determines the threshold voltage of the field-effect transistor. Ideally, ϕps is determined by the doping level in both polysilicon and the substrate. In reality process variations influence the ϕPS in a tangible way. Some of these effects are reviewed in the present paper.
