Abstract:
A single transistor planar RAM memory cell with improved charge retention and a method for forming the same, the method including providing forming a pass transistor structure adjacent a storage capacitor structure separated by a predetermined distance; carrying out a first ion implantation process to form first and second doped regions adjacent either side of the pass transistor structure, the first doped region defined by the predetermined distance; depositing a spacer dielectric layer; etching back the spacer dielectric layer to leave an unetched spacer dielectric layer portion overlying the first doped region while forming a sidewall spacer of a predetermined width overlying a first portion of the second doped region; and, carrying out a second ion implantation process to form a relatively higher dopant concentration in a second portion of the second doped region.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a simple and convenient method for fabricating a capacitor device with BiCMOS processes. An electrode of the capacitor device formed according to the present invention is an ion doping region formed in an epitaxy layer so that the thickness of the dielectric layer of the capacitor device decreased relative to a specific ion concentration. Accordingly, the capacitor device formed therein has a high capacitance and good performance.
Abstract:
A split-gate flash memory is formed by a method described in the following steps. A tunnelling oxide layer, a first conductive layer, and a hard mask layer are formed on a substrate in sequence. A drain opening and a floating gate opening are formed on the hard mask layer by defining the hard mask layer in order to expose the first conductive layer. A first polyoxide layer and a second polyoxide layer are formed on the first conductive layer exposed by the drain opening and the floating gate opening, respectively. The first polyoxide layer and the first conductive layer beneath the first polyoxide layer are removed to expose the substrate in the drain opening. A drain region is formed in the substrate in the drain opening. The hard mask layer is removed, and the first conductive layer is etched into a floating gate using the second polyoxide layer as a mask. A split-gate oxide layer and a second conductive layer are formed on the resulting structure in sequence. A control gate is formed by defining the second conductive layer, and a source region beside the floating gate is formed in the substrate.
