摘要:
In order that a top surface of a gate electrode does not have sharp portions, ends of the top surface of the gate electrode are rounded before refractory metal is deposited for silicidation. This reduces intensive application of film stresses which are generated in heat treatment, enabling formation of a silicide layer with a uniform, sufficient thickness.

摘要:
A memory cell in a DRAM, which is a semiconductor memory device, is provided with a bit line 21a connected to a bit line plug 20b and a local interconnect 21b, over a first interlevel insulating film 18. A conductor sidewall 40 of TiAlN is formed on side faces of hard mask 37, upper barrier metal 36, Pt film 35 and BST film 34. No contact hole is provided on the Pt film 35 constituting an upper electrode 35a. The upper electrode 35a is connected to an upper interconnect (a Cu interconnect 42) via the conductor sidewall 40, dummy lower electrode 33b, dummy cell plug 30 and local interconnect 21b. The Pt film 35 is not exposed to a reducing atmosphere, and therefore deterioration in characteristics of the capacitive insulating film 34a can be prevented.
摘要:
A silicon film is formed within a contact hole formed in a first insulating film on a semiconductor substrate in a manner that an upper portion of the contact hole remains, and a cobalt film is then deposited on the silicon film. Thereafter, a heat treatment is carried out so as to react the silicon film with the cobalt film, thereby forming a cobalt silicide layer in the surface portion of the silicon film. A barrier layer is formed on the cobalt silicide layer so as to completely fill the contact hole, and thus, a plug including the polysilicon film, the cobalt silicide layer and the barrier layer is formed. After a recess is formed in a second insulating film deposited on the first insulating film so as to expose the top surface of the plug, a capacitor bottom electrode, a capacitor dielectric film and a capacitor top electrode are successively formed in the recess.
