At the component level, polysilicon has long been used as the conducting gate material in MOSFET and CMOS processing technologies. For these technologies, it is deposited using low-pressure chemical-vapour deposition (LPCVD) reactors at high temperatures and is usually heavily doped n-type or p-type. More recently, intrinsic and doped polysilicon is being used in large-area electronics
