摘要:
A drain (7) includes a lightly-doped shallow impurity region (7a) aligned with a control gate (5), and a heavily-doped deep impurity region (7b) aligned with a sidewall film (8) and doped with impurities at a concentration higher than that of the lightly-doped shallow impurity region (7a). The lightly-doped shallow impurity region (7a) leads to improvement of the short-channel effect and programming efficiency. A drain contact hole forming portion (70) is provided to the heavily-doped impurity region (7b) to reduce the contact resistance at the drain (7).

摘要:
A method for fabricating a semiconductor structure includes growing regions of oxide on a first structure, to form bit-line regions; wherein said semiconductor structure includes a semiconducting substrate, a patterned ONO layer on said substrate, wherein said patterned ONO layer comprises regions of ONO and exposed regions of said semiconducting substrate, a patterned hard mask layer on said regions of ONO, and a patterned photoresist layer on said patterned hard mask layer.
摘要:
A process for fabricating an ONO structure for a MONOS type Flash cell includes growing a first silicon oxide layer over a semiconductor substrate. Thereafter, a silicon nitride layer is formed to overlie the first silicon oxide layer, and a polycrystalline silicon layer is deposited to overlie the silicon nitride layer. By utilizing the polycrystalline silicon layer as the top layer of the ONO structure, a resist layer can be cleaned more aggressively than if the top layer of the ONO structure were an oxide layer. A second silicon oxide layer overlies the polycrystalline layer, of the ONO structure. Since the second silicon oxide layer is deposited on top of polycrystalline silicon after the resist material is cleaned, some resist material can remain on the polycrystalline layer without degrading the performance of the MONOS type cell.
摘要:
A process for fabricating an ONO structure for a MONOS type Flash cell having a core and a periphery includes providing a semiconductor substrate. A first silicon oxide layer is grown overlying the semiconductor substrate, and a silicon nitride layer is deposited overlying the silicon oxide layer. Before depositing a second silicon oxide layer of the ONO structure, a bit-line mask is performed for forming at least one bit-line at the core. Thereafter, an ONO mask is formed to protect the ONO structure during an etch of the periphery. After depositing and cleaning the masks for the bit-line formation and the periphery etch, the second silicon oxide layer is deposited to overlie the silicon nitride layer using an HTO deposition process. By depositing the second silicon oxide layer after forming the ONO and bit-line masks, degradation of the second silicon oxide layer is prevented, and the top silicon oxide layer maintains a high quality.
摘要:
A semiconductor device is fabricated by the step of forming a first device isolation film in a peripheral circuit region by the use of a first pattern and a second device isolation film in a memory cell region by the use of a second pattern; forming a first conducting film processed by the use of a third pattern having a pattern-to-be-removed in a peripheral edge of the memory cell region; the step of forming an insulation film covering the memory cell region and processed by the use of a fourth pattern whose peripheral edge is positioned on the pattern-to-be-removed of the third pattern; and the step of forming a second conducting film processed by a fifth pattern.
