The impact of flash lamp annealing (FLA) technology realizing the minimum diffusion with low sheet resistivity is investigated based on MOSFET fabrication and computer simulations. It was found that the productivity can be improved, since FLA enables to employ higher acceleration energy ion implantation and higher through-put, and that MOSFET performance can be improved with its deviation being suppressed.
