A buried local interconnect and method of forming the same counterdopes a region of a doped substrate to form a counterdoped isolation region. A hardmask is formed and patterned on the doped substrate, with a recess being etched through the patterned hardmask into the counterdoped region. Dielectric spacers are formed on the sidewalls of the recess, with a portion of the bottom of the recess being exposed. A metal is then deposited in the recess and reacted to form silicide at the bottom of the recess. The recess is filled with fill material, which is polished. The hardmask is then removed to form a silicide buried local interconnect.

A MONOS device and method for making the device has a charge trapping dielectric layer, such as an oxide-nitride-oxide (ONO) layer, formed on a substrate. A recess is created through the ONO layer and in the substrate. A metal silicide bit line is formed in the recess and bit line oxide is formed on top of the metal silicide. A word line is formed over the ONO layer and the bit line oxide, and a low resistance silicide is provided on top of the word line. The silicide is formed by laser thermal annealing, for example.

A manufacturing method for a MirrorBit® Flash memory includes providing a semiconductor substrate and depositing a charge-trapping dielectric material. First and second bitlines are implanted and a wordline material is deposited. A hard mask material is deposited over the wordline material. The hard mask material is of a material having the characteristic of being deposited rather than grown. A photoresist material is deposited over the wordline material and is patterned to form a patterned hard mask. The patterned photoresist material is removed. The wordline material is processed using the patterned hard mask to form a wordline. The patterned hard mask material is removed.

A non-volatile memory device for retention of data when electrical power is terminated. The non-volatile memory device includes at least one memory cell and a charge pump for stepping up the incoming voltage supply. The charge pump includes at least one capacitor, wherein the dielectric of the charge pump capacitor and the dielectric of the memory cell are formed during the same processing step.

A method for manufacturing a MirrorBit® Flash memory includes providing a semiconductor substrate and successively depositing a first insulating layer, a charge-trapping layer, and a second insulating layer. First and second bitlines are implanted and wordlines are formed before completing the memory. Spacers are formed between the wordlines and an inter-layer dielectric layer is formed over the wordlines. One or more of the second insulating layer, wordlines, spacers, and inter-layer dielectric layers are deuterated, replacing hydrogen bonds with deuterium, thus improving data retention and substantially reducing charge loss.

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming an interface layer, a nitrided gate dielectric, a gate electrode, and source drain regions. The interface layer is formed in a substrate by laser processing. The nitrided gate dielectric is formed over the interface layer by laser processing. The gate electrode is formed over the substrate and the gate dielectric after the laser processing step, and source/drain regions are formed in the substrate proximate to the gate electrode.

A method of fabricating a dual bit dielectric memory cell structure on a silicon substrate includes implanting buried bit lines within the substrate and fabricating a layered island on the surface of the substrate between the buried bit lines. The island has a perimeter defining a gate region, and comprises a tunnel dielectric layer on the surface of the silicon on insulator wafer, an isolation barrier dielectric layer on the surface of the tunnel dielectric layer, a top dielectric layer on the surface of the isolation barrier dielectric layer, and a polysilicon gate on the surface of the top dielectric layer. A portion of the isolation barrier dielectric layer is removed to form an undercut region within the gate region and a charge trapping material is deposited within the undercut region.
