摘要:
A polyside gate of a prescribed shape with a protection film formed on the upper surface thereof is formed on a main surface of a semiconductor substrate. The protection film protects the upper surface of the polyside gate from oxidation in heat treatment. Impurities are implanted in the semiconductor substrate using the polyside gate and the protection film as a mask. The implanted impurities are diffused in the semiconductor substrate by the heat treatment, thereby providing a MOS transistor. A polyside gate of a prescribed shape is formed on a main surface of a semiconductor substrate and an interlayer insulating film is formed to cover the polyside gate. A protection film is formed on the interlayer insulating film and a reflow film is further formed thereon. The protection film protects the polyside gate from oxidation. The surface of the reflow film is made smooth by the heat treatment.

An object is to prevent protrusion of a plug from an interlayer insulating film to prevent formation of a step between circuit parts exceeding a step height allowed in a planarization process and also to prevent formation of particles due to a protruded plug. An interlayer insulating film (11) is etched back over the entire surface under an etching condition in which the etching selectivity of a polysilicon plug (13) with respect to the interlayer insulating film (11) is 10, for example, to recess the polysilicon plug (13) to a given depth in a bit line contact hole (12) to form a recessed polysilicon plug (27).

In a semiconductor device, a plurality of MIS transistors of the same conductivity type having different thresholds are formed at a main surface of semiconductor substrate, and impurity profiles on section extending in a depth direction from the main surface of the semiconductor substrate through respective channel regions of the plurality of MIS transistors have peaks located at different depths. This structure is formed by ion implantation performed on the respective channel regions with different implanting energies or different ion species. According to this semiconductor device, the thresholds of the MIS transistors can be individually controlled, and transistor characteristics optimum for uses can be obtained.

A DRAM is formed on a silicon substrate having a retrograde well and a diffusion-type well. The retrograde well has an impurity concentration profile which is set in steps by a plurality of ion-implantations. The diffusion-type well has an impurity concentration profile which changes monotonously by a thermal diffusion. A memory cell array is formed in the retrograde well region. A peripheral circuit is formed in the diffusion-type well region. The retrograde well enhances integration of devices included in the memory cell array. The diffusion-type well enhances the characteristic of insulating isolation between devices.

A semiconductor memory device in accordance with the present invention includes a plurality of n well regions and p well regions in a p type silicon substrate. One of the p well regions is connected to an external power supply. Peripheries of the p well region having a memory cell array formed therein are surrounded by an n well region having a potential held at a positive potential. The n well region held at the positive potential prevents electrons introduced into the substrate due to undershoot from entering into a p well region through the p well region connected to the external power supply.

A complementary field effect transistor with an N channel MOSFET and a P channel MOSFET formed on the same substrate is disclosed. On the P type main surface of the semiconductor substrate, an N channel MOSFET is formed comprising a gate electrode and a pair of impurity regions which becomes a pair of source/drain regions. Each impurity region of the N channel MOSFET comprises an impurity region of relatively low concentration formed so as to extend to beneath the above mentioned gate electrode, and an impurity region having a concentration higher than that of said impurity region having low concentration formed in a position at a distance from said gate electrode joining the impurity region of low concentration. The length of the portion located beneath the above mentioned gate electrode in the surface portion of the impurity region of low concentration is not less than 0.1 .mu.m in the direction identical to the direction of the channel length. This complementary field effect transistor has both reliability and high speed in the N channel MOSFET, and without punch-through in the P channel MOSFET, even though the devices become more minute.

A semiconductor device incloudes a MOS type field effect transistor whose gate electrode (4) has its surface covered with a first insulating film (5) and left and right sides provided with a pair of second insulating films (10). A first conductive layer (12, 13) is formed on the surface of the source/drain region (8, 11) and the surface of one of a pair of second insulating films (10) which are positioned on one side of the gate electrode (4). A third insulating film (24b) is formed at least on the surface of the second insulating film (10) on which the first conductive layer (12, 13) is not formed. A second conductive layer (18) is provided on the surface of the third insulating film (24b) and on the source/drain region (8, 11) on which the third insulating film (24b) is formed. This structure enables provision of a semiconductor device in which a contact hole can be formed in self-alignment, independent from the influence of errors in the step of patterning a resist mask.
