A method of fabricating a recess channel transistor is provided. First, a hard mask is formed on a doped-semiconductor layer and a substrate. The doped-semiconductor layer and the substrate are etched to form a trench and define a source/drain in the doped-semiconductor layer. An implantation process is performed with a tilt angle on sidewalls of the trench to form an implant area. A thermal oxidation process is performed to form an oxide layer. The oxide layer comprises a first thickness on the source/drain in the sidewalls of the trench and a second thickness on the other portion in the sidewalls of the trench.

Disclosed is a method for forming salicide in a semiconductor device. The method comprises the steps of: forming a first and a second gate oxide film and in a non-salicide region and a salicide region, the first gate oxide film being thicker than the second gate oxide film; forming a conductive layer and a nitride based hard mask layer, and then selectively removing the conductive layer, the hard mask layer, the first gate oxide film, and the second gate oxide film, thereby forming gate electrodes and simultaneously exposing an active region of the salicide region; forming a spacer oxide film on an upper surface, except for the hard mask layer, of a second resultant structure; selectively removing the spacer oxide film, thereby forming a spacer and simultaneously exposing the active region of the salicide region; removing the hard mask layer; and forming a salicide film on the upper surfaces of the gate electrodes and on the surface of the active region in the salicide region. Therefore, a non-salicide region and a salicide region can be formed selectively and simultaneously in a one-chip semiconductor device, so that the number of steps for a salicide forming process can be reduced.
摘要:
A dielectric layer (e.g., an interpoly dielectric layer) is deposited over low and high voltage devices of a peripheral memory device. The dielectric behaves as an oxidation and wet oxide etch barrier. The dielectric prevents the devices from being stripped by a wet oxide etch that can result in the exposure of the silicon corners. The exposure of a silicon corner may increase thinning of a gate oxide at the field edge. This causes variability and unreliability in the device. The dielectric is not removed from a device until the device is ready for processing. That is, the dielectric remains on a device until the growing of a gate oxide on that device has begun. This reduces the exposure of the silicon corner. Hedges that result may be removed by exposing a trench in the field oxide at the hedge.

In one embodiment, an EEPROM device having voltage limiting charge pumping circuitry includes charge-pumping circuitry that limits the voltage supplied to the high voltage transistors to levels below the breakdown field of the tunnel oxide layer. The EEPROM device includes a substrate having a programming region, a tunnel region, a sensing region, and a low voltage region. A first oxide layer having a first thickness overlies the tunnel region and the sensing region. A second oxide layer having a second thickness overlies the low voltage region. The first oxide thickness is greater than the second oxide thickness. A charge pumping circuit is coupled to the programming region and to the tunnel region. The charge pumping circuit impresses a voltage level across the first oxide layer that is below the field breakdown voltage of first oxide layer.
