摘要:
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device including selective conductive contacts includes the step of depositing a resist over first and second memory device components, each of the first and second components comprising junctions formed in the substrate and a gate formed on the substrate between the junctions. The resist is then removed from the second components to thereby form a resist opening above each of the second component control gates and junctions. The resist is then etched to thereby expose each of the first component control gates but not the substrate surrounding the first component control gates. Conductive contacts are then formed on the exposed first component control gates, and the second component control gates and junctions.

Methods of selectively forming metal silicides on a memory device are provided. The methods can include forming a mask layer over the memory device; forming a patterned resist over the mask layer; removing upper portions of the patterned resist; forming a patterned mask layer by removing portions of the mask layer that are not covered by the patterned resist; and forming metal silicides on the memory device by a chemical reaction of a metal layer formed on the memory device with portions of the memory device that are not covered by the patterned mask layer. By preventing silicidation of underlying silicon containing layers/components of the memory device that are covered by the patterned mask layer, the methods can selectively form the metal silicides on the desired portions of the memory device.

A dual node memory device and methods for fabricating the device are provided. In one embodiment the method comprises forming a layered structure with an insulator layer, a charge storage layer, a buffer layer, and a sacrificial layer on a semiconductor substrate. The layers are patterned to form two spaced apart stacks and an exposed substrate portion between the stacks. A gate insulator and a gate electrode are formed on the exposed substrate, and the sacrificial layer and buffer layer are removed. An additional insulator layer is deposited overlying the charge storage layer to form insulator-storage layer-insulator memory storage areas on each side of the gate electrode. Sidewall spacers are formed at the sidewalls of the gate electrode overlying the storage areas. Bit lines are formed in the substrate spaced apart from the gate electrode, and a word line is formed that contacts the gate electrode and the sidewall spacers.
