摘要:
A first insulating layer is formed on semiconductor substrate, and a trench is formed in the first insulating layer. An amorphous silicon layer doped with impurities is formed on a side and bottom walls of the trench. Next, a resist material is partially filled in the trench so that an upper portion of the amorphous silicon layer is exposed. The exposed portion is implanted with impurity ions. After removal of the resist material, the amorphous silicon layer is heat treated so as to grow hemispherical grains on its surface.

摘要:
A method of forming an isolation region exerts no adverse influence upon steps after forming the isolation region and is, besides, capable of forming the isolation region having a narrow isolation width. After a mask has been formed of an oxidationproof material such as Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 on a silicon substrate, a field oxide is formed by effecting selective oxidation in a high-pressure dry oxygen atmosphere. Thereafter, a portion, protruded from the silicon substrate, of the formed field oxide is removed, thereby forming the isolation region.

摘要:
In a semiconductor memory device, storage electrodes of two memory cells adjacent to each other are superimposed with each other, with their contours being substantially aligned. As a result, the storage electrodes are extended to cover two memory cell regions. The superimposed storage electrodes are electrically insulated from each other, and the upper storage electrode extends through the lower storage electrode.

A portable electronic device has an attribute memory such as a one-time programmable read-only memory that non-rewritably stores an original attribute characterizing an authenticatee. When the authenticatee uses the portable electronic device at an authentication terminal, the authenticatee inputs the same attribute to the authentication terminal. The input attribute is sent from the authentication terminal to the portable electronic device and compared with the original attribute in the portable electronic device. Alternatively, the original attribute is sent from the portable electronic device to the authentication terminal and compared with the input attribute in the authentication terminal. The use of a non-rewritable attribute memory improves the security of the authentication system.
摘要:
An object of the present invention is to provide a semiconductor memory cell capable of ensuring a large surface area of each of a plurality of storage electrodes thereby to increase the capacity of a capacitive portion (capacitor) formed between the storage electrode and a cell plate electrode, in other words, greatly increasing the capacity of the memory cell and to provide a method of manufacturing the semiconductor memory cell. The storage electrode is structured so as to have oblique inclinations. A semiconductor memory cell is normally selected by applying a voltage to a word line so as to start up the word line. Thus, the reading of information from or writing of it into the selected semiconductor memory cell is performed. The information is transferred to the corresponding memory cell from the outside of the memory cell through its corresponding bit line. Alternatively, the information is transferred to the outside. The retention of the information in the memory cell is carried out by electric charges stored in the capacitor formed between the storage electrode and the cell plate electrode. Therefore, the greater the capacity of the capacitor, the higher the performance of the memory cell is made.
