摘要:
A semiconductor device includes an inorganic insulating layer on a semiconductor substrate, a contact plug that extends through the inorganic insulating layer to contact the semiconductor substrate and a stress buffer spacer disposed between the node contact plug and the inorganic insulating layer. The device further includes a thin-film transistor (TFT) disposed on the inorganic insulating layer and having a source/drain region extending along the inorganic insulating layer to contact the contact plug. The device may further include an etch stop layer interposed between the inorganic insulating layer and the semiconductor substrate.

Methods of fabricating a semiconductor device are provided. A semiconductor substrate is provided that includes a single crystalline structure within at least a defined region thereof. A thin layer is formed on the semiconductor substrate. The thin layer is patterned to form a plurality of spaced apart field structures and to expose therebetween portions of the semiconductor substrate having the single crystalline structure. A non-crystalline layer is formed on the exposed portions of the semiconductor substrate having the single crystalline structure. The non-crystalline layer is planarized to expose upper surfaces of the field structures and define non-crystalline active structures from the non-crystalline layer between the field structures. A laser beam is generated that heats the non-crystalline active structures to change them into single crystalline active structures having substantially the same single crystalline structure as the defined region of the semiconductor substrate.

Methods of manufacturing semiconductor devices having at least one single crystal silicon layer are provided. Pursuant to these methods, a first seed layer that includes silicon is formed. A first non-single crystalline silicon layer is then formed on the first seed layer. The first non-single crystalline silicon layer is irradiated with a laser to transform the first non-single crystalline silicon layer into a first single crystalline silicon layer. Corresponding semiconductor devices are also disclosed.

In a vertical-type semiconductor device, a method of manufacturing the same and a method of operating the same, the vertical-type semiconductor device includes a single-crystalline semiconductor pattern having a pillar shape provided on a substrate, a gate surrounding sidewalls of the single-crystalline semiconductor pattern and having an upper surface lower than an upper surface of the single-crystalline semiconductor pattern, a mask pattern formed on the upper surface of the gate, the mask pattern having an upper surface coplanar with the upper surface of the single-crystalline semiconductor pattern, a first impurity region in the substrate under the single-crystalline semiconductor pattern, and a second impurity region under the upper surface of the single-crystalline semiconductor pattern. The vertical-type pillar transistor formed in the single-crystalline semiconductor pattern may provide excellent electrical properties. The mask pattern is not provided on the upper surface of the single-crystalline semiconductor pattern in the second impurity region, to thereby reduce failures of processes.

摘要:
In a vertical-type non-volatile memory device, first and second single-crystalline semiconductor pillars are arranged to face each other on a substrate. Each of the first and second single-crystalline semiconductor pillars has a rectangular parallelepiped shape with first, second, third and fourth sidewalls. A first tunnel oxide layer, a first charge storage layer and a first blocking dielectric layer are sequentially stacked on the entire surface of the first sidewall of the first single-crystalline semiconductor pillar. A second tunnel oxide layer, a second charge storage layer and a second blocking dielectric layer are sequentially stacked on the entire surface of the first sidewall of the second single-crystalline semiconductor pillar. A word line makes contact with surfaces of both the first and second blocking dielectric layers. The word line is used in common for the first and second single-crystalline semiconductor pillars.
