摘要:
An etch stop layer is formed over a surface of an interlayer insulating layer and over a surface of a conductive plug extending at a depth from the surface of the interlayer insulating layer. A lower mold layer is deposited over the etch stop layer, and a wet etch rate of the lower mold layer is adjusted by adding dopants to the lower mold layer during formation of the lower mold layer, and by annealing the lower mold layer. An upper mold layer is then deposited over the surface of the lower mold layer, such that a wet etch rate of the upper mold layer is less than the adjusted wet etch rate of the lower mold layer. The upper mold layer, the lower mold layer and the etch stop layer are then subjected to dry etching to form an opening therein which exposes at least a portion of the surface of the contact plug. Then a wet etching of the upper mold layer and the lower mold layer is performed so as to increase a size of the opening at the lower mold layer and so at to expose a surface portion of the etch stop layer adjacent the surface of the conductive plug. A conductive material is then deposited over the surface of the opening in the upper and lower mold layers to define a capacitor electrode.

摘要:
In a method of forming an oxide layer, ozone is generated by reacting an oxygen gas having a first flow rate with a nitrogen gas having a second flow rate of more than about 1% of the first flow rate. A reactant including the ozone and nitrogen is provided onto a silicon substrate. A surface of the silicon substrate is oxidized via the reaction of the reactant with silicon in the silicon substrate. The flow rate of the nitrogen gas is increased while ozone serving as an oxidant is formed by reacting the nitrogen gas with the oxygen gas. Thus, the oxide layer or a metal oxide layer including nitrogen may be rapidly formed on the substrate.

A vertical type semiconductor device can include a vertical pillar structure that includes a channel pattern with an outer wall. Horizontal insulating structures can be vertically spaced apart from one another along the vertical pillar structure to define first vertical gaps therebetween at first locations away from the outer wall and to define second vertical gaps therebetween at the outer wall, where the second vertical gaps are wider than the first vertical gaps. Horizontal wordline structures can be conformally located in the first and second vertical gaps between the vertically spaced apart horizontal insulating structures, so that the horizontal wordline structures can be vertically thinner across the first vertical gaps than across the second vertical gaps.

The method includes alternately stacking a first insulation film, a first sacrificial film, alternating second insulation films and second sacrificial films, a third sacrificial film and a third insulation film on a substrate. A channel hole is formed to expose a portion of the substrate while passing through the first insulation film, the first sacrificial film, the second insulation films, the second sacrificial films, the third sacrificial film and the third insulation film. The method further includes forming a semiconductor pattern on the portion of the substrate exposed in the channel hole by epitaxial growth. Forming the semiconductor pattern includes forming a lower epitaxial film, doping an impurity into the lower epitaxial film, and forming an upper epitaxial film on the lower epitaxial film. Forming the lower epitaxial film, doping the impurity into the lower epitaxial film and forming the upper epitaxial film are all performed in-situ, and the semiconductor pattern includes a doped region and an undoped region.

In methods of manufacturing a semiconductor device, a plurality of gate structures spaced apart from each other and oxide layer patterns. A sputtering process using the oxide layer patterns as a sputtering target to connect the oxide layer patterns on the adjacent gate structures to each other is performed, so that a gap is formed between the gate structures. A volume of the gap is formed uniformly to have desired volume by controlling a thickness of the oxide layer patterns.
