摘要:
A transistor region is a region where a plurality of MOS transistors, including an MOS transistor, are formed, and a dummy region is a region lying under a spiral inductor. In the dummy region, a plurality of dummy active layers are disposed in the main surface of an SOI substrate and a plurality of dummy gate electrodes are disposed covering the respective dummy active layers. The arrangement pattern of the dummy active layers and the arrangement pattern of the dummy gate electrodes nearly match, so that the dummy gate electrodes are aligned accurately on the dummy active layers.

It is an object to provide a semiconductor device having an SOI structure in which an electric potential of a body region in an element formation region isolated by a partial isolation region can be fixed with a high stability. A MOS transistor comprising a source region (51), a drain region (61) and an H gate electrode (71) is formed in an element formation region isolated by a partial oxide film (31). The H gate electrode (71) electrically isolates a body region (13) formed in a gate width W direction adjacently to the source region (51) and the drain region (61) from the drain region (61) and the source region (51) through “I” in a transverse direction (a vertical direction in the drawing), a central “-” functions as a gate electrode of an original MOS transistor.

In a combined isolation oxide film (BT1), a part closer to a gate electrode (GT13) reaches a buried oxide film (2) through an SOI layer (3) while a part closer to another gate electrode (GT12) has a sectional shape provided with a well region on its lower portion. The shape of an edge portion of the combined isolation oxide film (BT1) is in the form of a bird's beak in a LOCOS isolation oxide film. Consequently, the thicknesses of portions defining edge portions of the gate oxide films (GO12, GO13) are locally increased. Thus provided are a semiconductor device including a MOS transistor having a gate oxide film prevented from dielectric breakdown without increasing its thickness and a method of manufacturing the same.

A sidewall oxide layer and a sidewall insulation layer are formed to cover the edge portion of an SOI layer. A channel stopper region is formed in the vicinity of the edge portion of the SOI layer. A protruded insulation layer is formed on the channel stopper region. A gate electrode extends from a region over the SOI layer to the protruded insulation layer and the sidewall insulation layer. In this way, reduction in threshold voltage Vth of a parasitic MOS transistor at the edge portion of the SOI layer can be suppressed.

摘要:
In forming an element isolating region in a silicon semiconductor layer of an SOI substrate, a silicon nitride film of a predetermined thickness is deposited over an oxide film formed on a SOI layer. The silicon nitride film is patterned in a design size of active regions, and side walls of a silicon nitride film are formed on the side surfaces of the patterned silicon nitride film. A first LOCOS process is carried out using the nitride film as an oxidation mask. A LOCOS film formed by the first LOCOS process is removed to form narrower concavities under the side walls. Then, another silicon nitride film is deposited, and is removed leaving portions thereof forming the concavities. Then, a second LOCOS process is carried out to form a LOCOS film as an element isolating region. The second LOCOS process uses the oxidation mask having the narrow cavities, so that stress at the boundary of the active region and the element isolation region is reduced, and the growth of bird's beaks can be suppressed.

A manufacturing method of a semiconductor device having a planar single crystal semiconductor surface is disclosed. In the manufacturing method of a semiconductor device, an insulating film is formed on a semiconductor substrate, a noncrystal semiconductor film is formed on the insulating film, a stripe-like anti-reflection film is formed on the noncrystal semiconductor film, and laser beam is irradiated along the anti-reflection film. Because of the difference in temperature, a film with thicknesses different in a substrate region in which the anti-reflection film is formed and a region around it is formed. A film to be a machining allowance for polishing is formed on the single crystal semiconductor film, polishing is performed from the side of said film to be a machining allowance for polishing so that desired planar film thickness of the single crystal semiconductor film is implemented.
摘要:
A method of producing so-called SOI structures according to this invention includes the step of forming an opening for seeding after an insulating layer of predetermined thickness has been formed on a first monocrystal silicon layer. Further, a non-monocrystal layer, e.g., a polycrystal silicon layer is formed on the surface of the insulating layer. The surface of the polycrystal silicon layer is smoothed as by grinding. A reflection-preventive film is formed on the smoothed surface of the polycrystal silicon layer. The reflection-preventive film has a thin film region whose reflectance is substantially zero and a thick film region having a predetermined reflectance. During laser annealing, the reflection-preventive film produces a predetermined temperature distribution in the polycrystal silicon layer. The polycrystal silicon layer which has melted according to this temperature distribution recrystallizes from adjacent the seed portion and thereby forms a new monocrystal silicon layer over the entire surface. The smoothing process for the polycrystal silicon layer prevents any change in the reflectance of the reflection-preventive film and improves control on the temperature distribution in the polycrystal silicon layer.
