Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention provide a semiconductor integrated circuit device and a method for fabricating the device. In one embodiment, the method comprises forming a plurality of preliminary gate electrode structures in a cell array region and a peripheral circuit region of a semiconductor substrate; forming selective epitaxial films on the semiconductor substrate in the cell array region and the peripheral region; implanting impurities into at least some of the selective epitaxial films to form elevated source/drain regions in the cell array region and the peripheral circuit region; forming a first interlayer insulating film; and patterning the first interlayer insulating film to form a plurality of first openings exposing the elevated source/drain regions. The method further comprises forming a first ohmic film, a first barrier film, and a metal film; and removing portions of each of the metal film, the first barrier film, and the first ohmic film.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, the method including supplying a first reactant to inside a processing chamber into which a substrate has been introduced; controlling a flow of a first purge gas and storing the first purge gas, of which flow has been controlled, in a first storage for a given time period; supplying the first purge gas from the first storage to the inside of the processing chamber after supplying the first reactant; and supplying a second reactant to the inside of the processing chamber after supplying the first purge gas.
Abstract:
A method of forming a tungsten film including disposing a substrate inside a process chamber; performing a tungsten nucleation layer forming operation for forming a tungsten nucleation layer on the substrate, performing a first operation for forming a portion of a tungsten bulk layer on the tungsten nucleation layer by alternately supplying a tungsten-containing gas and a reducing gas into the process chamber, and performing a second operation for stopping the supply of the tungsten-containing gas and the reducing gas and removing a remaining gas in the process chamber may be provided. The first operation and the second operation may be repeated at least twice until the tungsten bulk layer reaches a desired thickness.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes: a semiconductor substrate having a trench therein, a metal-containing barrier layer extending along an inner wall of the trench and defining a wiring space in the trench, the wiring space having a first width along a first direction, and a metal-containing conductive line on the metal-containing barrier layer in the wiring space, and including at least one metal grain having a particle diameter of about the first width along the first direction.
