In an embodiment, a storage electrode of a capacitor in a semiconductor device is resistant to inadvertent etching during its manufacturing processes. A method of forming the storage electrode of the capacitor is described. The storage electrode of the capacitor may include a first metal layer electrically connected with a source region of a transistor through a contact plug penetrating an insulating layer on a semiconductor substrate. A polysilicon layer may then be formed on the first metal layer. A second metal layer is formed on the polysilicon layer.

A method of forming a floating gate of a non-volatile memory device can include etching a mask pattern formed between field isolation regions in a field isolation pattern on a substrate to recess a surface of the mask pattern below an upper surface of adjacent field isolation regions to form an opening having a width defined by a side wall of the adjacent field isolation regions above the surface. Then the adjacent field isolation regions is etched to increase the width of the opening.

In a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device such as a flash memory device, an insulating pattern having an opening is formed to partially expose a surface of a substrate. A first silicon layer is formed on the exposed surface portion of the substrate and the insulating pattern. The first silicon layer has an opened seam overlying the previously exposed portion of the substrate. A heat treatment on the substrate is performed at a temperature sufficient to induce silicon migration so as to cause the opened seam to be closed via the silicon migration. A second silicon layer is then formed on the first silicon layer. Thus, surface profile of a floating gate electrode obtained from the first and second silicon layers may be improved.

A non-volatile memory device and a method of fabricating the same are provided. The method can include disposing an isolation layer on a semiconductor substrate. The isolation layer may protrude from the main surface of the semiconductor substrate and define an active region. In a recess defined by the protrusion of the isolation layer and the active region, a diffusion-retarding poly pattern and a floating gate may be formed in sequence. A control gate may be disposed on the isolation layer to cover the diffusion-retarding poly pattern and the floating gate.

A method of fabricating a nonvolatile memory device includes forming at least one insulating layer on at least one of a semiconductor substrate and a layer including a semi-conductive material, and performing a plasma process using fluorine on the semiconductor. In some cases, an interface between the insulating layer and the semiconductor substrate includes fluorine.
摘要:
Methods of fabricating semiconductor devices including forming a mask pattern on a semiconductor substrate are provided. The mask pattern defines a first opening that at least partially exposes the semiconductor substrate and includes a pad oxide layer and a nitride layer pattern on the pad oxide layer pattern. The nitride layer has a line width substantially larger than the pad oxide layer pattern. A second opening that is connected to the first opening is formed by at least partially removing a portion of the semiconductor substrate exposed through the first opening. The second opening has a sidewall that has a first inclination angle and at least partially exposing the semiconductor substrate. A trench connected to the second opening is formed by etching a portion of the semiconductor substrate exposed through the second opening using the mask pattern as an etch mask. The trench is substantially narrower than the second opening and has a sidewall that has a second inclination angle that is substantially larger than the first inclination angle.
摘要:
In a method of forming a thin layer (e.g., a charge trapping nitride layer) of a semiconductor device (e.g. a charge trapping type non-volatile memory device), the nitride layer may be formed on a first area of a substrate. A blocking layer may be formed on the nitride layer. An oxide layer may be formed on a second area of the substrate while preventing or reducing an oxidation of the nitride layer by a radical oxidation process in which oxygen radicals react with the second area of the substrate and the blocking layer in the first area of the substrate. The nitride layer may ensure sufficient charge trapping sites and may have a uniform thickness without oxidation thereof in the radical oxidation process.
