摘要:
In a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device having a memory mat portion in which an active region and a field region are formed densely, after a polishing stopper film is deposited on a semiconductor substrate, there are formed grooves by etching a polishing stopper film of a field region and the semiconductor substrate. Then, after an insulating film is deposited so as to fill the grooves, then insulating film is partly removed from the memory mat portion by etching. Under this state, the insulating film is chemically mechanically polished until the polishing stopper film is exposed. The film thickness of the polishing stopper film on the active region can be reduced, and an electrical element isolation characteristic of the field region can be improved. At the same time, upon chemical mechanical polishing, a silicon substrate can be prevented from being exposed at the central portion of the memory mat portion and the insulating film can be prevented from being left on the silicon nitride film near the outer periphery, thereby making it possible to form elements having uniform electrical characteristics on all active regions of the memory mat portion.

Vertical MISFETs are formed over drive MISFETs and transfer MISFETs. The vertical MISFETs comprise rectangular pillar laminated bodies each formed by laminating a lower semiconductor layer (drain), an intermediate semiconductor layer, and an upper semiconductor layer (source), and gate electrodes formed on corresponding side walls of the laminated bodies with gate insulating films interposed therebetween. In each vertical MISFET, the lower semiconductor layer constitutes a drain, the intermediate semiconductor layer constitutes a substrate (channel region), and the upper semiconductor layer constitutes a source. The lower semiconductor layer, the intermediate semiconductor layer and the upper semiconductor layer are each comprised of a silicon film. The lower semiconductor layer and the upper semiconductor layer are doped with a p type and constituted of a p type silicon film.

In forming five trenches buried with an intermediate conductive layer for connecting transfer MISFETs and driving MISFETs with vertical MISFETs formed thereover, in which the second and third trenches, and the first, fourth, and fifth trenches are formed separately by twice etching using first and second photoresist films as a mask. Since all the trenches can be formed at a good accuracy even in a case where the shortest distance between the first trench and the second or third trench, and the shortest distance between the second or third trench and the fourth trench is smaller than the resolution limit for the exposure light, the distance between each of the five trenches arranged in one identical memory cell can be reduced to be smaller than resolution limit for the exposure light.

In a semiconductor chip A wherein an element layer 2 having transistors and the like is formed on the front face, and the back face is joined to an underlying member, such as a package substrate, the thickness T is made 100 μm or less, and thereafter, a gettering layer 3 is formed on the back face of the semiconductor chip A. The gettering layer 3 is formed, for example, by polishing the back face of said semiconductor chip A using a polishing machine. Thereby, the yield of devices can be improved in the step for assembling the package.
