A voltage controlled current source outputs oscillator drive current and oscillator equivalent current. A signal oscillator outputs first source oscillation signal and second source oscillation signal. A differential amplifier outputs first amplification oscillation signal and second amplification oscillation signal. First switch circuit and second switch circuit output first current oscillation signal and second current oscillation signal, respectively. A first current value converter-amplifier circuit converts a value of the first current oscillation signal whereas a second current value converter-amplifier circuit converts a value of the second current oscillation signal, so that the thus converted values become output current finally. An adder outputs to the differential amplifier a differential amplifier drive current in which equivalent current for use with conversion is added up with the oscillator equivalent current outputted from the voltage controlled current source.

A long-life, electrically writable and erasable non-volatile semiconductor memory device is disclosed. The memory device is fabricated in the following steps. After forming a first gate insulating film on a semiconductor substrate, a window is opened in the first gate insulating film to expose a portion of the surface of the semiconductor substrate, using a two-step etching technique in which dry etching and wet etching are performed successively. The exposed portion of the semiconductor substrate not over-etched is selectively oxidized to form a tunnel insulating film (second gate insulating film) having edge portions resistant to dielectric breakdown. Thereafter, a floating gate, a third gate insulating film, and a control gate are formed sequentially. The floating gate is patterned in such a way as to cover the entire tunnel insulating film or cross only a portion of an edge of the tunnel insulating film. The stress caused to the tunnel insulating film as a result of the oxidation process for forming the third gate insulating film is relieved, providing the tunnel insulating film with resistance to dielectric strength.

摘要:
A method for patterning a metal layer without so-called "rabbit ears" comprising the steps of:deposition of a metal layer on a substrate, deposition of a barrier layer on the metal layer, formation of a mask layer of a predetermined pattern on the barrier layer, etching of the barrier layer and the metal layer under conditions such that the mask layer is also eroded slightly, and removal of the mask layer. In other embodiments, selective etching of barrier layer and mask sidewalls avoids or eliminates such "rabbit ears" and/or etchant product deposits which are precursors of such "rabbit ears".
