A method for making a semiconductor MOS device is provided. A gate structure is formed on a substrate. A source and a drain are formed in the substrate on both sides of the gate structure. The substrate is then subjected to a pre-amorphization implant (PAI) process. A transitional stress layer is then formed on the substrate. Thereafter, a laser anneal with a first temperature is performed. After the laser anneal, a rapid thermal process is performed with a second temperature that is lower than the first temperature. Subsequently, the transitional stress layer is removed.

A method for inspecting a photoresist pattern is disclosed. First, a substrate with a first doping region is provided. Then, a photoresist is formed to cover the substrate. Later, the photoresist is patterned to form a photoresist pattern. Afterwards, the substrate is doped by using the photoresist pattern, and a PN junction exists in the first doping region. Thereafter, a current passing through the PN junction is tested to inspect the photoresist pattern.

A method of manufacturing a metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) transistor device is disclosed. A gate dielectric layer is formed on an active area of a substrate. A gate electrode is patterned on the gate dielectric layer. The gate electrode has vertical sidewalls and a top surface. A liner is formed on the vertical sidewalls of the gate electrode. A nitride spacer is formed on the liner. An ion implanted is performed to form a source/drain region. After salicide process, an STI region that isolates the active area is recessed, thereby forming a step height at interface between the active area and the STI region. The nitride spacer is removed. A nitride cap layer that borders the liner is deposited. The nitride cap layer has a specific stress status.

A method of manufacturing a code pattern on a semiconductor substrate with an array of substantially parallel buried bit lines integral therewith and with word lines above the buried bit lines, includes: forming a titanium nitride layer above the word lines, forming and patterning a code mask above the titanium nitride layer, implanting impurities into the substrate through openings in the code mask to form the code pattern, and performing rapid thermal annealing of the implant. The step height of the titanium nitride layer is employed to form the code identification on the substrate.

A multi-state read-only-memory device and a method for fabricating the same is suitable for forming on a semiconductor substrate. The read-only memory device is provided with bit lines and word lines which are mutually intersecting.

A method of fabricating flat-cell mask ROM devices having buried bit-lines that will not be subject to punch-through between neighboring bit lines as a result of heating in subsequent steps after the buried bit-lines are formed. In the method, the first step is to prepare a semiconductor substrate with a gate oxide layer formed thereon. Thereafter, a first polysilicon layer is formed over the gate oxide layer, and a plurality of trenches at predetermined positions, with these trenches extending through the gate oxide and first polysilicon layer and into the substrate to a predetermined depth. Then, trenches are filled with tungsten to form a plurality of source/drain regions. A second polysilicon layer is then formed over the first polysilicon layer, and an insulating layers is formed over each of the source/drain regions. Thereafter, a third polysilicon layer is formed over the second polysilicon layer and the insulating layers, and finally the third polysilicon layer is defined to form a gate for the integrated circuit device. Since the source/drain regions are made of tungsten metal, the spacing distance therebetween will not be changed when subjected to high-temperature conditions during subsequent process steps. The punch-through effect can thus be avoided.
