A method of forming a vertical diode and a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device (e.g., a semiconductor memory device such as a phase-change memory device) includes forming an insulating structure having an opening on a substrate and filling the opening with an amorphous silicon layer. A metal silicide layer is formed to contact at least a portion of the amorphous silicon layer and a polysilicon layer is then formed in the opening by crystallizing the amorphous silicon layer using the metal silicide layer. A doped polysilicon layer is formed by implanting impurities into the polysilicon layer. Thus, the polysilicon layer is formed in the opening without performing a selective epitaxial growth (SEG) process, so that electrical characteristics of the diode may be improved.

Provided is a method for manufacturing semiconductor devices including channel trenches that are separated by isolation structures. According to the process, the substrate is etched to form isolation trenches after which a sidewall oxide layer, a liner nitride layer and a field oxide layer are subsequently formed on the substrate and in the isolation trenches. The substrate is then planarized to remove upper portions of the sidewall oxide layer, the liner nitride layer and the field oxide layer to expose surface portions of the substrate between adjacent isolation trench structures. Channel trenches are then formed in the exposed surface portions of the substrate leaving residual substrate regions adjacent the isolation trench structures. These residual substrate regions are then oxidized and removed to form improved second channel trenches for the formation of transistor regions.

Methods and apparatus are provided for forming thin films for semiconductor devices, which enable supplying and removing reactants containing constituent elements of a thin film to be formed, by preheating and supplying a process gas and a purging gas at a predetermined temperature in forming the thin film on a substrate. For example, a method for forming a thin film includes supplying a first reactant to a chamber to chemically adsorb the first reactant onto a substrate, the first reactant being bubbled by a first gas that is preheated, purging the chamber to remove residues on the substrate having the first reactant chemically adsorbed, and forming the thin film by a means of chemical displacement by supplying a second reactant to the chamber to chemically adsorb the second reactant onto the substrate.

A first gate oxide layer pattern having a first thickness is formed in a first region of a substrate and a second gate oxide layer having a second thickness is formed in a second region of a substrate. A surface of the second gate oxide layer is selectively nitrified to form an oxynitride layer, thereby reducing a depletion effect of a poly gate and a fluctuation of threshold voltage.

A method of inhibiting pit occurrence on a semiconductor substrate during manufacture of a semiconductor device includes forming an isolation using a shallow trench isolation (STI) method in a semiconductor substrate, forming an insulation layer on an entire surface of the semiconductor substrate having the isolation, implanting ions into the semiconductor substrate using the insulation layer as a buffer layer, annealing the semiconductor substrate using a rapid thermal annealing (RTA) process, forming a photoresist layer on the insulation layer and then forming an opening in the photoresist layer to expose an underlayer thereof, forming an align key by etching the underlayer at the opening, and removing the photoresist layer and the insulation layer. Alternatively, the thickness of the insulation layer may be reduced to prevent the occurrence of pits on active areas of the semiconductor substrate.
