    摘要: The specification describes intergate dielectrics between the floating silicon gate and the control silicon gate in MOS memory devices. The intergate dielectrics are composite structures of SiO.sub.2 --Ta.sub.2 O.sub.5 --SiO.sub.2 with the first SiO.sub.2 layer grown on the floating gate,, and all layers preferably produced in situ in an LPCVD reactor. After formation of the composite SiO.sub.2 --Ta.sub.2 O.sub.5 --SiO.sub.2 dielectric, it is annealed at low pressure to densify the SiO.sub.2 layers. Electrical measurements show that the charge trap density in the intergate dielectric is substantially lower than in layered dielectrics produced by prior techniques.

    摘要: A method of suppressing damage to gate dielectrics by reducing the electrical field across the gate dielectric during plasma etching, photoresist stripping, or plasma assisted deposition of the overlying conductor to be etched. Openings in the gate oxide in the vicinity of the gates to be formed place the two conductive layers in contact with each other before the gates are formed and allows for the underlying conductive layer (usually the substrate) to be exposed to the plasma as the overlying unmasked conductive layer (usually polysilicon) is etched away. Preferably, the layer to be etched is deposited to be in contact with the underlying layer at the openings. This technique is applicable to integrated capacitor structures and other susceptible structures with a dielectric layer between two conductors.
