摘要:
A semiconductor device has a bit line interconnection with a greater width and a reduced level on a bit line contact is provided, as are methods of fabricating such devices. These method includes forming a buried gate electrode to intersect an active region of a substrate. Source and drain regions are formed in the active region. A first conductive pattern is formed on the substrate. The first conductive pattern has a first conductive layer hole configured to expose the drain region. A second conductive pattern is formed in the first conductive layer hole to contact the drain region. A top surface of the second conductive pattern is at a lower level than a top surface of the first conductive pattern. A third conductive layer and a bit line capping layer are formed on the first conductive pattern and the second conductive pattern and patterned to form a third conductive pattern and a bit line capping pattern. The second conductive pattern, the third conductive pattern, and the bit line capping pattern, which are sequentially stacked on the drain region, constitute first bit line structures, and the first conductive pattern, the third conductive pattern, and the bit line capping pattern, which are sequentially stacked on the isolation region, constitute second bit line structures.

An integrated circuit device includes an integrated circuit substrate and a first gate pattern on the substrate. A non-conductive barrier layer pattern is on the first gate pattern. The barrier layer pattern has openings at selected locations therein extending to the first gate pattern. A second gate pattern is on the barrier layer pattern and extends into the opening in the barrier layer pattern to electrically connect the second gate pattern to the first gate pattern.

摘要:
Provided are methods of manufacturing semiconductor devices by which two different kinds of contact holes with different sizes are formed using one photolithography process. The methods include preparing a semiconductor substrate in which an active region is titled in a diagonal direction. A hard mask is formed on the entire surface of the semiconductor substrate. A mask hole is patterned not to overlap a word line. A first oxide layer is deposited on the hard mask, and the hard mask is removed to form a piston-shaped sacrificial pattern. A first polysilicon (poly-Si) layer is deposited on the sacrificial pattern and patterned to form a cylindrical first sacrificial mask surrounding the piston-shaped sacrificial pattern. A second oxide layer is coated on the first sacrificial mask to such an extent as to form voids. A second poly-Si layer is deposited in the voids and patterned to form a pillar-shaped second sacrificial mask. The second oxide layer is removed to expose the active region. The sectional area of a buried contact (BC) storage contact pad may be increased, while the sectional area of a direct contact (DC) bit line contact pad may be reduced.
摘要:
An integrated circuit device includes first and second conductive structures spaced apart from one another on a substrate along a first direction. The first and second conductive structures extend in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction. A contact plug is interposed between the first and second conductive structures and is separated therefrom along the first direction by respective air gaps on opposite sides of the contact plug. The air gaps define first and second air spacers that electrically insulate the contact plug from the first and second conductive structures, respectively. An upper insulation layer covers the first and second air spacers and the first and second conductive structures. The air spacers may sufficiently reduce the loading capacitance between the conductive structures. Related fabrication methods are also discussed.

摘要:
A transistor structure and a method of forming the same prevent a boundary face of first and second gate electrodes from being oxidized in a subsequent oxidation process, by forming an oxidation inhibition layer in the boundary face. A gate insulation layer is formed on a semiconductor substrate, and a gate stack is obtained by a sequential accumulation of first and second gate electrodes and a capping layer on the gate insulation layer. An oxidation inhibition layer is formed in a sidewall portion of the gate stack, and the oxidation inhibition layer covers a boundary face of the first and second gate electrodes. Source/drain regions are opposite to the gate stack.
