At the surface of a p-type silicon substrate, n-type source/drain diffused layers are formed. On the substrate between the source/drain diffused layers, a gate insulating film made of a silicon oxide film is formed so as to be isolated from the diffused layers. A gate electrode is formed on the gate insulating film. Sidewalls are formed on the sides of the gate insulating film and gate electrode, extending upward from the substrate. In this invention, the sidewalls are composed of material whose permittivity is higher than that of the gate insulating film, for example, of a silicon nitride film.

A semiconductor device comprises a semiconductor substrate of a first conductivity type, a first insulation film formed on the semiconductor substrate, a gate electrode and a second insulation film formed in sequence on the first insulation film, a trench being formed to extend through the second insulation film, the gate electrode and the first insulation film to an interior of the semiconductor substrate. A cylindrical gate insulation film is formed on a surface of the gate electrode which is exposed in the trench. A capacitor insulation film is formed on a surface of the semiconductor substrate exposed in the trench. A cylindrical conductive film is formed inside these insulation films. The cylindrical conductive film includes a region doped with an impurity of the first conductivity type and formed on a surface of the gate insulation film, a region doped with an impurity of a second conductivity type and formed on a surface of the second insulation film and a region doped with an impurity of the second conductivity type and formed on a surface of the capacitor insulation film. A conductive column is formed in a region surrounded by the cylindrical conductive film.

For increasing pattern density of cell regions in a semiconductor memory device including an array of dynamic memory cells, the cell regions for cell transistor pairs are provided in a semiconductor substrate so as to be crossed by one desired bit line and two word lines adjacent thereto, and the patterns of cell regions have a same direction. Contacts for electrically connecting each bit line to common regions of cell transistor pairs are provided on respective bit lines every desired pitch at positions where each bit line intersects with cell regions. These contacts of adjacent bit lines are successively shifted in a bit line direction by approximately 1/2.sup.n pitch (n is natural numbers greater than or equal to 2).

This invention discloses a semiconductor integrated circuit in which an input protecting circuit and an inner circuit are formed on a single semiconductor substrate and a MOS transistor of the inner circuit is formed by mask-alignment. The source and drain regions of the MOS transistor of the input protecting circuit are formed by self-alignment, so that the impurity concentration of the source and drain regions is increased and the diffusion resistance thereof is reduced, thereby increasing the junction breakdown power caused by a drain current. In addition, the radii of curvature of the junction curved surface portions of the source and drain regions of the MOS transistor of the input protecting circuit are increased so as to reduce the electric field intensity at the junction curved surface portions, thereby improving the junction breakdown withstand characteristics.

In one-transistor.one-capacitor type dynamic memory cell, cell capacitor with a reduced junction leakage current comprises a MOS capacitor which is provided between a semiconductor substrate and a charge storage electrode disposed at a side wall of a trench through a first insulating film, and a stacked capacitor which is provided between the charge storage electrode and a capacitor plate electrode formed on a second insulating film covering the entire surface of the charge storage electrode. The equivalent silicon dioxide thickness of the first insulating film is thicker than that of the second insulating film, and the storage capacitance of the cell capacitor is rendered by a sum of the capacitance of the MOS capacitor and the capacitance of the stacked capacitor because these capacitors are electrically connected in parallel with each other.

A signal line runs in parallel with first to fourth bit lines on a memory cell array of a dynamic memory device. The signal line runs between and along the first and third bit lines, turns at a predetermined position, turns again and runs between and along the second and fourth bit lines. The predetermined turning position is a position corresponding to the half of the bit line length. The result is that the stray capacitances between the signal line and these bit lines are equal at about 1/2C.sub.F.

In a laser-broken fuse used in a memory redundancy technique, an aluminum wiring layer is formed on an interlevel insulating film. A portion of the wiring layer is selected to be broken to shut off conduction of the layer. A polysilicon-made heat member is provided in the interlevel insulating film at the place which is underneath the selected portion. The heat member is located on a field insulating film. This heat member generates heat by absorbing energy from a laser beam, and thermal-explodes in a sealed atmosphere so as to break the selected portion.
