    Abstract: Integrated circuit gates are fabricated by forming an insulated gate on an integrated circuit substrate, wherein the insulated gate includes a gate oxide on the integrated circuit substrate, a polysilicon pattern including polysilicon sidewalls, on the gate oxide, and a metal pattern on the polysilicon pattern. The insulated gate is pretreated with hydrogen and nitrogen gasses. The polysilicon sidewalls are then oxidized. The pretreating in hydrogen and nitrogen gasses prior to oxidizing can reduce growth in thickness of the gate oxide during the oxidizing and/or can reduce formation of whiskers on the metal pattern, compared to absence of the pretreatment.

    Abstract: A method of forming a T-shaped isolation layer, a method of forming an elevated salicide source/drain region using the same, and a semiconductor device having the T-shaped isolation layer are provided. In the method of forming the T-shaped isolation layer, an isolation layer having a narrow trench region in the lower portion thereof and a wide trench region in the upper portion thereof is formed on a semiconductor substrate. Also, in the method of forming the elevated salicide source/drain region, the method of forming the T-shaped isolation layer is used. In particular, conductive impurities can also be implanted into the lower portion of the wide trench region which constitutes the head of the T-shaped isolation layer and is extended to both sides from the upper end of the narrow trench region by controlling the depth of the wide trench region in an ion implantation step for forming the source/drain region.

    Abstract: Methods of forming CMOS integrated circuit devices include forming at least first, second and third transistors in a semiconductor substrate and then covering the transistors with one or more electrically insulating layers that impart a net stress (tensile or compressive) to channel regions of the transistors. The covering step may include covering the first and second transistors with a first electrically insulating layer having a sufficiently high internal stress characteristic to impart a net tensile (or compressive) stress in a channel region of the first transistor and covering the second and third transistors with a second electrically insulating layer having a sufficiently high internal stress characteristic to impart a net compressive (or tensile) stress in a channel region of the third transistor. A step may then performed to selectively remove a first portion of the second electrically insulating layer extending opposite a gate electrode of the second transistor. In addition, a step may be performed to selectively remove a first portion of the first electrically insulating layer extending opposite a gate electrode of the first transistor and a second portion of the second electrically insulating layer extending opposite a gate electrode of the third transistor.
