A manufacturing method of a semiconductor device includes: forming an electric metal layer by depositing metal as art electrode material on an inside of an opening of an insulating layer on a surface of an SiC semiconductor substrate; widening a gap between an inner wall surface in an opening formed in the insulating layer and the electrode metal layer by etching the insulating layer after the electrode metal layer is formed; and forming an ohmic contact between the electrode metal layer and the SiC semiconductor substrate by heating the SiC semiconductor substrate and the metal electrode layer after the insulating layer is etched.

Techniques are disclosed for providing a decoupled via fill. Given a via trench, a first barrier layer is conformally deposited onto the bottom and sidewalls of the trench. A first metal fill is blanket deposited into the trench. The non-selective deposition is subsequently recessed so that only a portion of the trench is filled with the first metal. The previously deposited first barrier layer is removed along with the first metal, thereby re-exposing the upper sidewalls of the trench. A second barrier layer is conformally deposited onto the top of the first metal and the now re-exposed trench sidewalls. A second metal fill is blanket deposited into the remaining trench. Planarization and/or etching can be carried out as needed for subsequent processing. Thus, a methodology for filling high aspect ratio vias using a dual metal process is provided. Note, however, the first and second fill metals may be the same.

A property of a semiconductor device having a non-volatile memory is improved. A semiconductor device, which has a control gate electrode part and a memory gate electrode part placed above a semiconductor substrate of a non-volatile memory, is configured as follows. A thick film portion is formed in an end portion of the control gate insulating film on the memory gate electrode part side, below the control gate electrode part. According to this configuration, even when holes are efficiently injected to a comer portion of the memory gate electrode part by an FN tunnel erasing method, electrons can be efficiently injected to the comer portion of the memory gate electrode part by an SSI injection method. Thus, a mismatch of the electron/hole distribution can be moderated, so that the retention property of the memory cell can be improved.

摘要:
A conductive via for connecting between a digit line and one side of the magnetic device is positioned beneath, and aligned with, each magnetic device. Other contacts may satisfy the same design rules, using the same process step. An electrode formed on the conductive via is polished to eliminate step functions or seams originating at the conductive via from propagating up through the various deposited layers. This integration approach allows for improved scaling of the MRAM devices to at least a 45 nanometer node, a cell packing factor approaching 6F 2 , and a uniform thickness of material between the bit lines and the underlying memory elements.
