    摘要: A method is provided for fabricating a split gate flash EPROM device. A stack is formed of a first dielectric layer on the lightly doped semiconductor substrate followd by a floating gate, a first intergate dielectric layer, an intermediate control gate layer, an isolating layer over the intermediate control gate layer, and a floating gate mask on the device. The stack is formed by etching in the pattern of the floating gate. A split gate mask is formed followed by ion implanting dopant into source/drain regions in the substrate adjacent to the mask with one source/drain region self aligned with the stack and the other spaced away from the other side of the stack. After mask removal, a second intergate dielectric layer blanket is formed with an etch back forming sidewalls next to the stack by etching away exposed portions of the first dielectric layer, forming a second dielectric layer on the substrate and the source/drain regions. Removal of the isolating layer over the intermediate control gate layer follows. Then a blanket control gate layer over the device and a control gate mask are formed, patterning the control gate layer by etching portions of the control gate layer unprotected by the control gate mask, and removal of the control gate mask.

    摘要: A clamp circuit for a read-only-memory (ROM) device provides clamp voltages which can uniformly compensate for the parasitic capacitance on ROM word lines and improve the performance of the ROM device. The clamp circuit includes an active load, a plurality of amplifiers and a transmission gate. The amplifiers have various trip voltages and are controlled by different decoding signals for providing various clamp voltages to different word lines in the ROM device. Each amplifier is composed of a NOR gate and a transistor. The amplifier trip voltages can be easily set to desired values when designing NOR gate layout patterns without additional complicated processes being introduced into the fabrication methodology of a semiconductor integrated circuit.

    摘要: A process for manufacturing an LDD type of FET, based on the salicide process, is described. Said process does not lead to short circuits between the drain region and and the main body of the FET through the buried contact. The process is based on the use of Liquid Phase Deposition (LPD) as the method for growing the oxide layer from which the spacers are formed. Since oxide layers formed through LPD will deposit preferentially on silicon and silicon oxide surfaces relative to photoresist surfaces, the areas in which the LPD layer forms are readily controlled. This feature allows the buried contact layer to be replaced by an extended drain region which can be connected to other parts of the integrated circuit (by the salicide process) without the danger of shorting paths being formed therein.

    摘要: A liquid crystal display having an improved angular distribution for emerging radiation is described, together with a method for manufacturing it. This was achieved by forming patterns, one per pixel, of concentric annuli in one of the orientation layers and radial spokes in the other orientation layer. This guarantees that there is a wide range in the orientations of the twisted nematics, leading to an improved angular distribution for the emerging radiation. The invention is applicable to both monochrome as well as color displays and may also be used as a way to adjust, during manufacturing, the angular distribution of the emerging light.

    摘要: A method for manufacturing a DRAM capacitor on a substrate in which an insulator, a first barrier layer, a first conductive layer and a second barrier layer are sequentially applied over the gate electrode and source/drain areas of the substrate. Portions of the deposited layers above the source/drain areas are removed to form trenches which reach these areas. After portions of the second barrier layer and the first conductive layer are etched away, a conductive material layer is deposited thereover, an n-type dopant is doped into the conductive material layer, the dopant is diffused into the substrate to form n.sup.+ -type diffused regions, and the conductive material layer is shaped to form spaced-apart poly spacers and poly fins. Thereafter the first and the second barrier layers are removed to form a bottom plate of the DRAM capacitor which is defined by the first conductive layer, the poly spacers and the poly fins. Finally, a dielectric film is applied over the bottom plate and a further conductive layer is deposited thereover so that it forms a top plate of the DRAM capacitor. The resulting stack/trench capacitor has a larger dielectric film area and a correspondingly larger capacitance.

    摘要: Disclosed is a process for fabricating a semiconductor device having both a functional region and an electrostatic discharge (ESD) protective region formed on the same substrate. A gate oxide layer is formed on both the functional region and the ESD protective region and a polysilicon layer is formed on the gate oxide layer. A mask is used to etch the polysilicon layer and the gate oxide layer to form gate electrode and also expose part of the silicon substrate. Ions are implanted to form a lightly doped source/drain electrode. An ESD mask is used to selectively remove part of the oxide layer on the functional region, thus forming an isolator on lateral sides of the gate electrode in the functional region. Ions are then implanted to form a heavily doped region and lightly doped source/drain electrode. After that, a metallization layer is formed by sputtering deposition and then rapid thermal annealing and etching are performed to form self-aligning TiSi.sub.2 layer on the gate electrode and on exposed surface of the source/drain electrode. Then the ESD mask is used again to selectively remove part of the oxide layer on the ESD protective region. Finally, ions are implanted to form a heavily doped region. Using the same ESD mask to construct both the ESD protective region and the functional region provides considerable cost savings.

    摘要: In accordance with the invention, a double poly process is used to double the memory density of a buried bit line ROM on the same silicon area. In particular the word-line pitch is decreased to increase the cell density in a direction perpendicular to the word lines. The invention uses a self-aligned method for ROM code implantation and a polyplanarization by chemical-mechanical polishing (CMP) to achieve a self aligned double poly word line structure.

    摘要: A process for fabricating memory cells of a static random access memory (SRAM) device is disclosed to reduce the required die area and increase storage capacity. Each of the memory cells of the SRAM comprises a group of four MOS transistors, a pair of resistors, a pair of bit lines, as well as a word line. The process of fabrication the memory cells of the SRAM device comprises a number of process steps that are implemented subsequently on the surface of said semiconductor substrate, with the first and second MOS transistors first formed on the semiconductor substrate. According to the process, the first and second resistors are then formed on top of the first and second MOS transistors. Then the third and fourth MOS transistors and a word line are subsequently formed on top of the first and second resistors. Finally, the first and second bit lines for the memory cells are formed on top of the third and fourth MOS transistors. The process for fabricating the memory cells is characterized by the fact that the third and fourth MOS transistors are fabricated as vertical conduction transistors having their drains, sources and gates aligned substantially in a direction orthogonal to the plane of the semiconductor substrate.
