    摘要: A semiconductor device of SOI structure formed by the mesa isolation method, which can sufficiently reduce the wiring capacitance even if the width of the isolation trench is large. An SOI layer which constitutes an element region is formed by forming a buried oxide film in a silicon substrate, forming an isolation trench in the buried oxide film and burying an isolating material in the isolation trench. By the formation of the SOI layer with the isolating material, a dummy SOI layer is formed in a field part other than the element region. Then, by the formation of a MOSFET gate wiring on the dummy SOI layer, the wiring capacitance is reduced. Furthermore, the dummy SOI layer is completely depleted when the MOSFET threshold value is applied to the gate wiring.

    摘要: A semiconductor integrated circuit device having an SOI structure is capable of preventing occurrence of leak current flowing from a diffusion layer even when a semiconductor element having a pn-junction is included in the semiconductor substrate. The semiconductor integrated circuit device having the SOI structure is formed with a semiconductor layer, or SOI layer, on a p-type semiconductor substrate through a buried insulating film and further with semiconductor circuit elements serving as functional elements at the SOI layer thus formed. As a protection transistor to protect the semiconductor circuit elements, a MOSFET may be formed in which n-type diffusion layers are formed in the semiconductor substrate. The n-type diffusion layers of the MOSFET are to be surrounded by p-type diffusion layers more highly doped than the semiconductor substrate.

    摘要: A SOI semiconductor integrate circuit device, which can protect against surges between a signal-input terminal and power-supply input terminal thereof to obtain an improved electrostatic withstand quantity, is disclosed. An inverter circuit which is an integrated circuit is formed in a thin-film semiconductor layer formed through an insulation film on a p-type silicon substrate. An n-type diode diffusion region, resistor diffusion region, and FET diffusion region are formed within the silicon substrate. An input portion of the inverter circuit is connected through the resistor diffusion region to a signal-input terminal IN. A power-supply input terminal VC is connected to a ground terminal GND through a reverse-biased diode D formed by the diode diffusion region. When surge is applied to the signal-input terminal IN, a parasitic diode DD composed by the resistor diffusion region and silicon substrate exhibits avalanche breakdown and surge voltage is bypassed. An electrostatic withstand quantity of the inverter circuit can be increased.

    摘要: The present invention is intended to provide a method of fabricating an EEPROM having excellent endurance characteristics. A work obtained by processing a substrate (1) by a wafer processing process including a passivating process and having a tunnel oxide film, an aluminum wiring film and a passivation film is subjected to a low-temperature heat treatment employing a processing temperature of about 250.degree. C. and a processing time on the order of 50 hr in a thermostatic oven (20) in the presence of nitrogen gas. The low-temperature heat treatment reduces trap sites produced in the tunnel oxide film by a plasma CVD process carried out to form the passivation film to repair the tunnel oxide film damaged by the plasma CVD process and to improve the endurance characteristics. The aluminum wiring film is not deteriorated by the low-temperature heat treatment because the low-temperature heat treatment employs a relatively low processing temperature.

    摘要: In a semiconductor integrated circuit device having an input protection circuit element such as a diode formed in the semiconductor substrate, the leak current is suppressed. An nMOS transistor and a pMOS transistor that constitute a CMOS inverter circuit are formed using a SOI structure. An n-type diffusion layer and p-type diffusion layer are formed within the semiconductor substrate to thereby construct a protective diode that forms an input protection circuit for the CMOS inverter circuit. By surrounding the outer periphery of the n-type diffusion layer with the p-type diffusion layer, the depletion layer that is formed at an interface between the semiconductor substrate and a buried insulation film therein is cut off by the p-type diffusion layer, thereby suppressing the leak current between the n-type diffusion layer and the p-type diffusion layer.

    摘要: A protective circuit that can maintain effectiveness when excess voltages of both polarities are applied is placed between the input terminal of an internal CMOS inverter and an input pad. The protective circuit includes a protective resistor, a P-channel MOSFET and an N-channel MOSFET. The N-channel MOSFET is placed between a connecting line and a ground terminal with the gate terminal of the MOSFET connected to the connecting line. The P-channel MOSFET is placed between the connecting line and the ground terminal with the gate terminal of the MOSFET connected to the connecting line. The P-channel MOSFET releases excess negative voltage from the outside using ON-state current and the N-channel MOSFET releases excess positive voltage from the outside using ON-state current.
