    摘要: A metal-oxide-metal capacitor comprises a first electrode, a second electrode, a plurality of first fingers and a plurality of second fingers. Each first finger and its corresponding second finger are in parallel and separated by a low k dielectric material. A guard ring is employed to enclose the metal-oxide-metal capacitor so as to prevent moisture from penetrating into the low k dielectric material.

    摘要: A method is provided for the removal of liner oxide from the surface of a gate electrode during the creation of the gate electrode. A layer of gate oxide is formed over the surface of a substrate, a layer of gate electrode is deposited over the layer of gate oxide. The gate electrode is deposited, gate spacers are formed over the liner oxide, exposing surfaces of the liner oxide. The created structure is nitrided by a plasma stream containing N2/H2, reducing the etch rate of the exposed liner oxide. The liner oxide is then removed by applying a wet etch, contact regions to the gate electrode are salicided.

    摘要: A method for manufacturing an erasable programmable memory is disclosed, and an enlargement of the coupling area between control and floating gates is employed to increase the capacitive-coupling ratio. Firstly, the isolation regions are formed on the substrate. A polysilicon layer is formed on a portion of the control region of the substrate to form an uneven silicon surface. An ion implantation is carried out to form the doped tunnel region and the control gate. A tunnel oxide layer and a non-tunnel oxide layer are formed on the doped tunnel region, and an inter-poly dielectric is formed on the control gate. A floating gate is now deposited on the doped tunnel region and the control gate. Then an inter-layer dielectric is formed and etched to provide the isolation and connect between control gate and interconnects.

    摘要: A method of manufacturing the bit lines of memory. The method includes the steps of forming a mask over a substrate, and then patterning the mask layer to form an opening that exposes a portion of the substrate. Thereafter, a portion of the exposed substrate is removed to form a trench in the substrate. Next, the mask layer is removed. Finally, conductive material is deposited into the trench to form a bit line.

    摘要: In this method for manufacturing a split-gate flash memory cell, a floating gate and a control gate are formed over a substrate, and then first spacers are formed on the sidewalls of the gate structure. Next, a polysilicon layer is deposited over the gate structure and the substrate, and second spacers are formed on the sidewalls of the polysilicon layer. A self-aligned ion implantation process is performed, using the second spacers as a mask, implanting ions into the semiconductor substrate to form a drain region. This maintains the channel length. After removing the second spacers, another ion implantation process is performed to create a source region in the semiconductor substrate. During the second implantation, the polysilicon layer offers some protection for the semiconductor substrate, maintaining the capacity for tunneling. Finally, a conductive layer is formed over the polysilicon layer, and the conductive layer combined with the polysilicon layer forms the select gate.
