    摘要: A trench (2) is fabricated in a silicon body (1). The walls (4) of the trench are provided with a nitrogen implantation (6). An oxide layer between the source/drain regions (5) and a word line applied on the top side grows to a greater thickness than a lower oxide layer of an ONO storage layer fabricated as gate dielectric at the trench wall. Instead of the nitrogen implantation into the trench walls, it is possible to fabricate a metal silicide layer on the top sides of the source/drain regions in order to accelerate the oxide growth there.

    摘要: In the method, trenches are etched and, in between, bit lines (8) are in each case arranged on doped source/drain regions (3, 4). Storage layers (5, 6, 7) are applied and gate electrodes (2) are arranged at the trench walls. After the introduction of polysilicon, which is provided for the gate electrodes (2), into the trenches, the top side is ground back in a planarizing manner until the top side of the covering layer (16) is reached, and afterward a polysilicon layer (18), which is provided for the word lines, is applied over the whole area and patterned to form the word lines.

    摘要: An electrically conductive bit line layer is applied and patterned into portions arranged parallel to one another before the trench is etched into the semiconductor material, in which case, after the patterning of the bit line layer (3, 4) and before the etching of the trench, an implantation is introduced for the purpose of defining the position of the junctions, or, after the implantation of the n+-type well (19) for the source/drain regions, the bit line layer (3, 4) is patterned using an etching stop layer (2) arranged on the semiconductor body (1).

    摘要: A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a storage layer over a semiconductor body. The storage layer includes a first boundary layer, an intermediate storage layer and a second boundary layer. The storage layer is patterned so that at least some of the storage layer is removed from over a first portion of the semiconductor body and some of the storage layer is removed from over a second portion of the semiconductor body. The first portion of the semiconductor body is doped and the second portion of the semiconductor body is etched.

    摘要: In a memory cell, in a trench, a layer sequence comprising a first oxide layer, a nitride layer provided on the first oxide layer, and a second oxide layer, facing the gate electrode, and provided at the lateral trench walls, while the nitride layer is absent in a curved region of the trench bottom. In an alternative configuration, in each case at least one step is formed at the lateral walls of the trench, preferably below the source region or the drain region, respectively.

    摘要: In the method, trenches (9) are etched and, in between, bit lines (8) are in each case arranged on doped source drain/regions (3). Dopant is introduced into the bottoms of the trenches (9) in order to form doped regions (23), in order to electrically modify the channel regions. Storage layers are applied and gate electrodes (2) are arranged at the trench walls. The semiconductor material at the bottoms of the trenches is etched away between the word lines (18/19) to an extent such that the doped regions (23) are removed there to such a large extent that a crosstalk between adjacent memory cells along the trenches is reduced.
