摘要:
Methods for forming a mold for a storage electrode in a semiconductor device include forming an interlayer dielectric layer including a contact plug on a substrate. A first mold dielectric layer is formed of a first material on the interlayer dielectric layer. A second mold dielectric layer is formed of a second material on the first mold dielectric layer. The second material has a different etch selectivity than the first material. A first opening is formed that penetrates the first and second mold dielectric layers. The first opening is dry etched to define a second opening having a larger width in the first mold dielectric layer than in the second mold dielectric layer based on the different etch selectivity of the first and second mold dielectric layers to define the mold for the storage electrode.

In a method of forming an isolation layer, first and second trenches are formed on a substrate. The first and the second trenches have first and second widths, respectively, and the second width is greater than the first width. A second isolation layer pattern partially fills the second trench. A first isolation layer pattern and the third isolation layer pattern are formed. The first isolation layer pattern fills the first trench, and the third isolation layer pattern is formed on the second isolation layer pattern and fills a remaining portion of the second trench.

A method of fabricating a non-volatile memory integrated circuit device and a non-volatile memory integrated circuit device fabricated by using the method are provided. A device isolation region is formed in a substrate to define a cell array region and a peripheral circuit region. A plurality of first and second pre-stacked gate structures is formed in the cell array region, and each has a structure in which a lower structure, a conductive pattern and a first sacrificial layer pattern are stacked. Junction regions are formed in the cell array region. Spacers are formed on side walls of the first and second pre-stacked gate structures. A second sacrificial layer pattern filling each space between the second pre-stacked gate structures is formed. The first sacrificial layer pattern is removed from each of the first and second pre-stacked gate structures. A damascene metal layer pattern is formed in each of spaces of the first and second pre-stacked gate structures from which the first sacrificial layer pattern is removed, thus completing first and second stacked gate structures. The second sacrificial layer pattern is removed. A stop layer is formed on top surfaces of the first stacked gate structures, top surfaces and side walls of the second stacked gate structures, and a top surface of the substrate.
