A reduction in size nonvolatile semiconductors for use in a memory device and an increase in the capacity thereof are promoted. Each memory cell of a flash memory is provided with a field effect transistor having a first gate insulator film formed on a p-type well, a selector gate which is formed on the first insulator film and has side faces and a top face covered with a silicon oxide film (first insular film), floating gates which are formed in a side-wall form on both sides of the selector gate and which are electrically isolated from the selector gate through the silicon oxide film, a second gate insulator film formed to cover the silicon oxide film and the surface of each of the floating gates, and a control gate formed over the second gate insulator film.

A non-volatile semiconductor memory device provides for higher integration by reducing the area of occupation of direct peripheral circuits, in which the memory cell of an AND type flash memory includes a selection gate, a float gate, a control gate that functions as a word line, and an n-type semiconductor region (source, drain) that functions as a local bit line. A pair of local bit lines adjacent to each other in a memory mat are connected with one global bit line at one end in the direction of the column of the memory mat, and a selection MOS transistor, formed by one enhancement type MOS transistor and one depletion type MOS transistor; is connected in series with each of the pair of local bit lines. One of the local bit lines is selected by turning the selection MOS transistor on/off.

An AND flash memory of the type wherein a memory cell is constituted of n-type semiconductor regions (a source and a drain) formed in a p-type well of a semiconductor substrate and three gates (including a floating gate, a control gate and a selective gate) is manufactured. In the manufacture, arsenic (As) is introduced into a p-type well in the vicinity of one of side walls of the selective gate to form n-type semiconductor regions (a source and a drain). Thereafter, to cope with a drain disturb problem, the substrate is thermally treated by use of an ISSG (In-Situ Steam Generation) oxidation method so that a first gate,insulating film disposed in the vicinity of one of side walls, at which the n-type semiconductor regions have been formed, is formed thick.

A semiconductor integrated circuit device and a method of manufacturing the same. The surface of a substrate of an active region surrounded by an element isolation trench is horizontally flat in the center portion of the active region but falls toward the side wall of the element isolation trench in the shoulder portion of the active region. This inclined surface contains two inclined surfaces having different inclination angles. The first inclined surface near the center portion of the active region is relatively steep and the second inclined surface near the side wall of the element isolation trench is gentler than the first inclined surface. The surface of the substrate in the shoulder portion of the active region is wholly rounded and has no angular portion.
摘要:
The object of the present invention is to provide a new nonvolatile semiconductor memory device and its manufacturing method for the purpose of miniaturizing a virtual grounding type memory cell based on a three-layer polysilicon gate, enhancing the performance, and boosting the yield. In a memory cell according to the present invention, a floating gate's two end faces perpendicular to a word line and channel are partly placed over the top of a third gate via a dielectric film. The present invention can reduce the memory cell area of a nonvolatile semiconductor memory device, increase the operating speed, and enhances the yield.
