    摘要: A method of fabricating an integrated circuit device includes forming first and second gate patterns on surfaces of a semiconductor substrate in PMOS and NMOS regions, respectively, of the substrate. P-type source/drain regions are epitaxially grown on opposite sides of the first gate pattern in the PMOS region to exert compressive stress on a first channel region therebetween adjacent the first gate pattern. N-type source/drain regions are epitaxially grown on opposite sides of the second gate pattern in the NMOS region to exert tensile stress on a second channel region therebetween adjacent the second gate pattern. Related devices are also discussed.

    摘要: In a non-volatile memory device with a buried control gate, the effective channel length of the control gate is increased to restrain punchthrough, and a region for storing charge is increased for attaining favorably large capacity. A method of fabricating the memory device includes forming the control gate within a trench formed in a semiconductor substrate, and forming charge storing regions in the semiconductor substrate on both sides of the control gate in a self-aligning manner, thereby allowing for multi-level cell operation.
