A nonvolatile semiconductor memory device comprising: a semiconductor substrate (20); and a memory transistor (100) including a source region (20S) and a drain region (20D) which are impurity diffusion layers formed in the semiconductor substrate, a tunnel insulating layer (25) formed on the semiconductor substrate, and a staked-structure gate electrode (20G) having a floating gate (24), a dielectric layer (23) and a control gate (22) which are layered on the tunnel insulating layer.

A semiconductor device including a MOS element having a buried contact structure. The buried contact structure includes a first contact diffused region formed by diffusion from a polycrystalline silicon layer and a second contact diffused region formed by diffusion deeper than the first contact diffused region, so that a parasitic resistance of the MOS element can be reduced. In a composite element composed of the MOS element and a bipolar element, partly since the first contact diffused region and an emitter diffused region of the bipolar element can be formed simultaneously, and partly since the depth of connection of the emitter diffused region, with the parasitic resistance of the MOS element being reduced, it is possible to realize a high-speed operation.

This device is composed of a semiconductor substrate, a bipolar element formed on the substrate so as to insulate a base region and an emitter electrode from one another by a base/emitter electrode insulating film, and a MOS element formed on the substrate in such a manner that a gate electrode together with an emitter electrode of the bipolar element are formed in a common layer and that a gate oxide film is formed between the gate electrode and another layer adjacent to and under the first-named layer. The base/emitter electrode insulating film has a thickness greater than that of the gate oxide film.

摘要:
The method of manufacturing a non-volatile semiconductor memory device comprises a step of providing a first ion implantation on the principal surface of a silicon substrate in a manner to cover a groove to form a first impurity region on the principal surface. Next, a step of providing a second ion implantation to cover the groove to form a second impurity region on the principal surface that overlaps the first impurity region at the groove and electrically connects the second source/drain region and the third source/drain region by the first impurity region. In short, the impurity region at the groove is formed by a twice ion implantation of the first and second ion implantations.
