摘要:
In an exemplary embodiment of the invention a method of forming a gate oxide layer of a semiconductor device uses deuterium gas. The method includes introducing a semiconductor substrate, and depositing an insulating layer on the semiconductor substrate by supplying an oxidation reaction gas and a deuterium gas to the semiconductor substrate. Thus, a high quality gate oxide layer can be formed and resistance to degradation from the hot carrier effect can be improved. Further, when the method is applied to a tunnel oxide layer process of a flash memory, problems such as an increasing dispersion of the threshold voltage can be mitigated.

In a method of manufacturing a floating gate of a non-volatile semiconductor memory, a pattern is formed on a substrate to have an opening that exposes a portion of the substrate. A first preliminary polysilicon layer is formed on the pattern and the exposed portion of the substrate to substantially fill the opening. A first polysilicon layer is formed by partially etching the first preliminary polysilicon layer until a first void formed in the first preliminary polysilicon layer is exposed. A second polysilicon layer is formed on the first polysilicon layer.

A method of forming a dielectric layer for a non-volatile memory cell is disclosed. According to the method, a dielectric layer is formed by successively forming a lower oxide layer, a nitride layer and an upper oxide layer on a semiconductor substrate. The lower and upper oxide layers are formed using a radical oxidation process. A method of forming a non-volatile memory cell having the dielectric layer is also disclosed.

A method of forming a floating gate of a non-volatile memory device can include etching a mask pattern formed between field isolation regions in a field isolation pattern on a substrate to recess a surface of the mask pattern below an upper surface of adjacent field isolation regions to form an opening having a width defined by a side wall of the adjacent field isolation regions above the surface. Then the adjacent field isolation regions is etched to increase the width of the opening.

In an embodiment, a method of forming a gate structure for a semiconductor device includes forming a preliminary gate structure on a semiconductor substrate. The preliminary gate structure includes a gate oxide pattern and a conductive pattern sequentially stacked on the substrate. Then, a re-oxidation process is performed to the substrate having the preliminary gate structure using an oxygen radical including at least one oxygen atom, so that an oxide layer is formed on a surface of the substrate and sidewalls of the preliminary gate structure to form the gate structure for a semiconductor device. The thickness of the gate oxide pattern is prevented from increasing, and the quality of the oxide layer is improved.
