DRAM devices include a plurality of word lines extending in a first direction and a plurality of bit lines extending in a second direction and intersecting the word lines. A plurality of active regions is provided that are electrically coupled to the word lines and the bit lines. Each of the active regions defines a single unit memory cell having an area of 6F2 in terms of a minimum line width F. Each of the active regions may be overlapped by only one word line and the active regions may be defined by an isolation region.
Abstract:
A semiconductor memory device includes a plurality of rows, each row comprising a plurality of active regions arranged at a pitch wherein the active regions in adjacent rows are shifted with respect to each other by one half of the pitch, wherein a distance between each active region in a row is equal to a distance between active regions in adjacent rows.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention provide methods of forming SAC pads in non-straight semiconductor device having non-straight type or separate type active regions. A plurality of gate line structures extending in one direction may be formed on a semiconductor substrate having non-straight active regions. An interlayer insulating layer covering gate line structures may be formed on the gate line structures. Then, a photo-resist layer may be formed on the interlayer insulating layer. A photo-resist pattern may be formed through exposing and developing the photo-resist layer by using a photo-mask having, for example, a bar type, a wave type, or a reverse active type pattern. Then, contact holes exposing source/drain regions may be formed by etching the interlayer insulating layer using the photo-resist pattern as an etching mask. Contact pads may then be formed by filling the contact holes with a conductive material.
Abstract:
This invention relates to an apparatus and method for forming a high temperature superconducting film on a tape substrate. In this invention, the superconducting film is deposited on the tape substrate wound around a cylindrical substrate holder inserted in an auxiliary chamber. The holder rotates during the whole deposition process. Vapors of film materials are supplied from a main chamber through an opening between the two chambers. According to the present invention, it is possible to form a highly uniform high temperature superconducting film on a tape substrate at high speeds suitable for large scale production. The manufacturing speed can easily be controlled by the size of the substrate holder.

There are provided a method of forming a trench for a recessed channel of a transistor and a layout for the same. A layout for the recessed channel according to one aspect of the present invention is formed such that an open region is extended across at least one of a first active region in a lateral direction, and also across another second active region in parallel with the first active region in a diagonal direction, and the extension is cut not to reach an isolation region between two third active regions that are in parallel with the second active region in a diagonal direction, and have noses facing each other in a longitudinal direction, and the layout includes an alignment of a plurality of open regions, which are discontinuously aligned. An etch mask is formed using the layout, and a semiconductor substrate is etched using the etch mask, and a trench for a recessed channel is formed on the active region.
