摘要:
In the semiconductor device, in order to meet the demand of reduced diameter of a contact hole along with the miniaturization of the semiconductor device, an anti-HF side wall film which is not etched by a hydrofluoric acid, formed of an isolating film such as nitride film, is provided on the side wall of contact hole. Further, a second impurity region which is connected to one of the pair of n type source/drain regions and a first impurity region reaching a p type isolation region are provided in silicon substrate 1 near the lower end of contact hole. Because of this structure, it becomes possible to prevent expansion of the diameter for forming the interconnection layer, as desired in the miniaturized semiconductor device, and therefore a semiconductor device and manufacturing method thereof which stabilize operation characteristic of the semiconductor device can be provided.

A semiconductor device has a plurality of fuse members (1a, 1b) composed of a metal that can be cut by laser light (4), disposed over a semiconductor substrate (5). The length L of the fuse members (1a, 1b) is smaller than a value obtained by subtracting an alignment error .alpha. of the laser light (4) from a spot diameter D of the laser light (4), i.e., the value (D-.alpha.). The fuse members (1a, 1b) are spaced a distance l larger than a value obtained by adding the alignment error .alpha. to the half of the spot diameter D, i.e., the value (D/2+.alpha.).

An isolating/insulating film is formed on the surface of a p.sup.- silicon substrate in an element isolating region. An nMOS transistor having a pair of n-type source/drain regions is formed within an element forming region isolated by the isolating oxide film. A p.sup.+ impurity diffusion region is formed on the p.sup.- silicon substrate in such a manner as to be contacted with the lower surface of the isolating oxide film in the element isolating region and to extend at a specified depth from the surface of the p.sup.- silicon substrate in the element forming region. A p-type impurity diffusion region having a p-type impurity concentration higher than that of the p.sup.- silicon substrate is formed at the side end portion of the isolating oxide film in such a manner as to be contacted with the n-type source/drain region. With this arrangement, it is possible to reduce leakage current caused by the distribution of crystal defects in a depletion layer.

A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device whereby the process is simplified and high performance can be obtained in both a trench-gate transistor and a planar transistor that has a thin gate insulating film when the two transistors are formed on the same semiconductor substrate. In a state in which the gate insulating film (11s) in a peripheral circuit region PE is covered by a protective film (12), a gate trench (18) is formed in a memory cell region M, after which a gate insulating film (19) that is thicker than the gate insulating film (11s) is formed on an inner wall of the gate trench (18) in a state in which the gate insulating film (11s) of the peripheral circuit region PE is still covered by the protective film (12).

A semiconductor device having a memory cell portion and a peripheral circuit portion is provided which achieves suppression of reduction of punch-through margin of transistors in the peripheral circuit portion and offers ensured short margin and enhanced current driving capability. After a high-temperature (800° C. to 1000° C.) thermal treatment that is performed to improve burying characteristics after formation of an interlayer insulating film, and also after a high-temperature (800° C. to 1000° C.) thermal treatment that is performed to enhance refresh characteristics after formation of contact plugs in the memory cell portion, a silicon oxide film and insulating film formed on a semiconductor substrate in the peripheral circuit portion are removed by anisotropic dry-etching, leaving the insulating film as sidewall insulating films on sides of sidewall nitride films. Then an impurity ion implantation process is performed using gate interconnections as implant masks to form source/drain regions in the peripheral circuit portion.
摘要:
An ion implanter encloses a semiconductor substrate adjacent to a fixing member which retains a semiconductor substrate on a supporting bed. The ion implanter includes a ring electrode for generating secondary electrons in response to incident ions and a cup-like electrode for directing the secondary ions to the semiconductor substrate. The ring electrode is negatively biased with respect to the supporting bed and the cup-like electrode surrounds the outer edge of the semiconductor substrate. The ion implanter increases the quantity of the secondary electrons produced and efficiently directs them to the semiconductor substrate. The semiconductor substrate which is electrically charged by implanting ions is neutralized, preventing dielectric breakdown from occurring in an insulating film.
