Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a silicon layer with high resistance and a fabricating method to improve the reliability of devices containing the silicon layer. The silicon layer has multiple layers with different dopants and grain boundaries, which increases the overall resistance and reduces variations in conductivity between layers. This improves the reliability of devices containing the silicon layer.

Problems solved by technology

However, when the amount of the implanted dopants becomes less, variations of the conductivity between silicon layers become larger.
Since these silicon layers are fabricated with the same implantation process, but on different wafers, the reliability of devices containing these silicon layers is poor.
