摘要:
A semiconductor integrated circuit device and a method of manufacturing the same. The surface of a substrate of an active region surrounded by an element isolation trench is horizontally flat in the center portion of the active region but falls toward the side wall of the element isolation trench in the shoulder portion of the active region. This inclined surface contains two inclined surfaces having different inclination angles. The first inclined surface near the center portion of the active region is relatively steep and the second inclined surface near the side wall of the element isolation trench is gentler than the first inclined surface. The surface of the substrate in the shoulder portion of the active region is wholly rounded and has no angular portion.

By ion-implanting an inert gas, for example, nitrogen into a polycrystalline silicon film in an nMIS forming region from an upper surface of the polycrystalline silicon film down to a predetermined depth, an upper portion of the polycrystalline silicon film is converted to an amorphous form to form an amorphous/polycrystalline silicon film. And then, an n-type impurity, for example, phosphorous is ion-implanted into the amorphous/polycrystalline silicon film to form an n-type amorphous/polycrystalline silicon film, the n-type amorphous/polycrystalline silicon film is processed to form a gate electrode having a gate length shorter than 0.1 μm, a sidewall formed of an insulating film is formed on a side wall of the gate electrode, and a source/drain diffusion layer is formed. Thereafter, a cobalt silicide (CoSi2) layer is formed on an upper portion of the gate electrode by salicide technique.

The object of the present invention is to provide a new nonvolatile semiconductor memory device and its manufacturing method for the purpose of miniaturizing a virtual grounding type memory cell based on a three-layer polysilicon gate, enhancing the performance, and boosting the yield. In a memory cell according to the present invention, a floating gate's two end faces perpendicular to a word line and channel are partly placed over the top of a third gate via a dielectric film. The present invention can reduce the memory cell area of a nonvolatile semiconductor memory device, increase the operating speed, and enhances the yield.
