摘要:
A semiconductor integrated circuit device having a switching MISFET, and a capacitor element formed over the semiconductor substrate, is disclosed. The impurity concentration of the semiconductor region of the switching MISFET to which the capacitor element is connected is less than the impurity concentration of semiconductor regions of MISFETs of peripheral circuitry. The Y-select signal line overlaps the lower electrode layer of the capacitor element. A potential barrier layer, provided at least under the semiconductor region of the switching MISFET to which the capacitor element is connected, is formed by diffusion of an impurity for a channel stopper region. The dielectric film of the capacitor element is co-extensive with the capacitor electrode layer over it. The capacitor dielectric film is a silicon nitride film having a silicon oxide layer thereon, the silicon oxide layer being formed by oxidizing a surface layer of the silicon nitride under high pressure. An aluminum wiring layer and a protective (and/or barrier) layer are formed by sputtering in the same vacuum sputtering chamber without breaking the vacuum between forming the layers; and a refractory metal, or a refractory metal silicide QSi.sub.x, where Q is a refractory metal and x is between 0 and 2, is used as a protective layer, for an aluminum wiring containing an added element (e.g., Cu) to prevent migration.

A boron doped amorphous silicon film is formed by CVD under the conditions of a pressure lower than 1 atm and a temperature higher than 200.degree. C. and lower than 400.degree. C. by using at least one of disilane and trisilane, and diborane as source gases. Since the resultant amorphous silicon film can diffuse impurities at a lower temperature than in the case of the polycrystalline silicon film formed by the conventional method, a pn junction much shallower than in the prior art can be formed.

A semiconductor device, such as an FET or a charge coupled device, is provided having a channel or a charge coupled portion formed in a thin semiconductor layer which is substantially perpendicular to the substrate. Necessary electrodes, such as the gate electrode, and necessary insulating layers can be added at the thin semiconductor layer, and can maintain the necessary amount of electric current by securing the height of the semiconductor layer. The structure has the advantage that it can have its plane size reduced. Further, the semiconductor memory device using the above semiconductor device is suitable to high integration and has excellent electric characteristics.

Herein disclosed is a semiconductor device of high density. The semiconductor device having a high density and a microstructure is required to have a high breakdown voltage and a high speed even with a low supply voltage. The semiconductor device comprises: a semiconductor body; a gate insulating film formed over the body; and a MOS transistor having a source/drain region formed in the body and a gate electrode film formed over the gate insulating film. The gate electrode film is composed of two or more films having different etching rates. The gate etching is stopped at the interface of the composite film to form an inverse-T gate electrode structure; and in that an electric conduction is observed between the component films. Thus, the overlap between the gate and the drain can be controlled.

A memory is disclosed which uses a microcapacitor as a data storage portion. The microcapacitor uses as its main electrode surface the side wall of a first trench formed on a semiconductor substrate, and is fabricated by diffusing an impurity from a second diffusion trench adjacent to the first trench by setting the shapes and diffusion conditions of the first and second trenches so that the tip of the diffusion layer reaches the side wall of the first trench. The capacitor uses the diffusion layer as one of the electrodes. An insulating film is deposited on the side wall of the first trench and an electrode as the other electrode of the capacitor is deposited on this insulating film. The memory can reduce a leakage current between memory cells by connecting the capacitor to a transistor fabricated in the same semiconductor substrate, and can be formed within a limited space.

A shallow p-type well is formed in a region different from respective regions in a p-type substrate where a deep n-type well, a shallow p-type well, and a shallow n-type well are formed. A p-type diffusion tap formed in the shallow p-type well is wired to a p-type diffusion tap formed in a shallow n-type well in the deep n-type well using an interconnection in a second layer. The respective gate electrodes of an nMIS and a pMIS each formed in the deep n-type well are coupled to the respective drain electrodes of an nMIS and a pMIS each formed in the substrate using an interconnection in a second or higher order layer.

摘要:
After silicon oxide film (9) is formed on the surface of a semiconductor substrate (1), the silicon oxide film (9) in a region in which a gate insulation film having a small effective thickness is formed is removed using diluted HF and after that, high dielectric constant insulation film (10) is formed on the semiconductor substrate (1). Consequently, two kinds of gate insulation films, namely, a gate insulation film (12) comprised of stacked film of high dielectric constant insulation film (10) and silicon oxide film (9) and gate insulation film (11) comprised of the high dielectric constant insulation film (10) are formed on the semiconductor substrate (1).
摘要:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor integrated circuit device comprising forming a silicon oxide film as thin as 5 nm or less on the surfaces of p type wells and n type wells by wet oxidizing a substrate, heating the substrate in an atmosphere containing about 5% of an NO gas to introduce nitrogen into the silicon oxide film so as to form a silicon oxynitride film, exposing the substrate to a nitrogen plasma atmosphere to further introduce nitrogen into the silicon oxynitride film in order to form a silicon oxynitride gate insulating film having a first peak concentration near the interface with the substrate and a second peak concentration near the surface thereof. Thereby, the concentration of nitrogen in the gate insulating film is increased without raising the concentration of nitrogen near the interface between the substrate and the gate insulating film to a higher level than required.
