According to one embodiment, a solid-state imaging device includes a photodiode includes an N-type region and a P-type region, a floating diffusion region, and a transfer transistor. The N-type diffusion region of the photodiode comprises a first semiconductor region and a second semiconductor region formed shallower than the first semiconductor region. An end portion of the first semiconductor region is positioned on the floating diffusion region side rather than an end portion of a gate electrode of the transfer transistor. An end portion of the second semiconductor region is set in substantially the same position as that of the end portion of the gate electrode of the transfer transistor.

A trench dummy element isolating region is formed in the fuse region of a semiconductor substrate. In the semiconductor substrate, a plurality of dummy element regions is formed so as to be enclosed by the trench dummy element isolating region. The occupancy rate of the plurality of dummy element regions in the fuse region is equal to or larger than a specific value. On the semiconductor substrate including the dummy element isolating region and dummy element regions, a plurality of metal fuses composed of multilayer metal wiring lines are formed via an interlayer insulating film. The plurality of dummy element regions are formed only below at least a part of the plurality of metal fuses.

A semiconductor device includes an alignment mark which is arranged adjacent to each corner of a semiconductor chip, and a plug which contacts the alignment mark. The alignment mark is formed by part of the uppermost interconnection layer in a multilevel interconnection which is formed on the semiconductor chip and obtained by stacking low-permittivity insulating layers and interconnection layers. The plug is buried in a contact hole formed in the low-permittivity insulating layer below the alignment mark, and contacts the alignment mark.
摘要:
Since at least a portion of a trench capacitor electrode is formed by a metal, the electrical sheet resistance of the electrode can be lowered, and the signal propagation time prolonged by CR delay can be shortened. This can reduce the read/write time. The formation of a buried gate electrode can realize a reduction of the cell area, which is required in a DRAM- and a DRAM/logic-embedded device. This can increase the gate length and reduce the short channel effect. Since an insulating protective film is deposited on the gate electrode, a bit line contact can be formed in self-alignment.
