Abstract:
A physical vapor deposition (PVD) apparatus for forming a phase-changeable layer includes a process chamber including a loading chamber configured to load a substrate, and a depositing chamber configured to deposit ion particles of a phase-changeable material onto the substrate; a target member on an upper portion of the depositing chamber and configured to provide the ion particles of the phase-changeable material which react with process gases in a plasma state; a plasma generator configured to generate a process gas plasma from the process gases; a chuck on a lower portion of the depositing chamber and holding the substrate, the chuck including a heater configured to heat the substrate, and at least one electrode configured to guide the ion particles of the phase-changeable material to the substrate; and a supplementary heater in the process chamber and configured to transfer radiant heat around the substrate.
Abstract:
A semiconductor memory device and a manufacturing method of the semiconductor memory device are provided. The semiconductor memory device can include a substrate in which a cell area and a peripheral area are defined, a first gate insulating layer on the peripheral area, and a poly gate layer on the first gate insulating layer to form a combined stack, wherein the combined stack of the first gate insulating layer and the first poly gate layer is absent from the cell area.
