.~.~ Including nondopant implantation
DEFINITION
Classification: 438/440
Including nondopant implantation:
(under subclass 439) Process including a step of ion implanting a nonelectrically active impurity species into any region of the semiconductor substrate.
(1) Note. The nondopant may serve to alter the oxidation rate of the implanted region.
