摘要:
Provided are a method of forming an insulating layer and a method of manufacturing a transistor using the method. The method of forming the insulating layer includes forming a preliminary insulating layer including silicon oxide (SiO2) on a silicon (Si)-containing substrate. A reactive gas containing ammonia (NH3) gas is supplied to the preliminary insulating layer. Nitrogen radicals (N*) and hydrogen radicals (H*) are generated from the ammonia gas using plasma. The hydrogen radicals combine with oxygen of the preliminary insulating layer, and the nitrogen radicals combine with the silicon oxide so that an insulating layer including hydroxides (OH) and silicon oxynitride (SiON) can be formed.

In semiconductor devices, methods of forming the same, the semiconductor device include a first gate structure having a first gate oxide layer pattern, a first polysilicon layer pattern containing atoms larger than silicon and a first hard mask layer pattern on substrates under tensile stress. N-type impurity regions are formed under the surface of the substrate on both sides of the first gate structure. A second gate structure having a second gate oxide layer pattern, a second polysilicon layer pattern containing atoms smaller than silicon and a second hard mask layer pattern on substrates under compressive stress. Additionally, P-type impurity regions are formed under the surface of the substrate on both sides of the second gate structure. The semiconductor devices have good device properties.

In methods of manufacturing a recessed channel array transistor, a recess may be formed in an active region of a substrate. A plasma oxidation process may be performed on the substrate to form a preliminary gate oxide layer on an inner surface of the recess and an upper surface of the substrate. Moistures may be absorbed in a surface of the preliminary gate oxide layer to form a gate oxide layer. A gate electrode may be formed on the gate oxide layer to fill up the recess. Source/drain regions may be formed in an upper surface of the substrate at both sides of the gate electrode. Thus, the oxide layer may have a uniform thickness distribution and a dense structure.

A recessed channel array transistor may include a substrate, a gate oxide layer, a gate electrode and source/drain regions. The substrate may have an active region and an isolation region. A recess may be formed in the active region. The gate oxide layer may be formed on the recess and the substrate. The gate oxide layer may include a first portion on an intersection between a side end of the recess and a sidewall of the active region and a second portion on a side surface of the recess. The first portion may include a thickness greater than about 70% of a thickness of the second portion. The gate electrode may be formed on the gate oxide layer. The source/drain regions may be formed in the substrate. Thus, the recessed channel array transistor may have a decreased leakage current and an increased on-current.

Methods of forming integrated circuit devices include forming an electrically conductive layer containing silicon on a substrate and forming a mask pattern on the electrically conductive layer. The electrically conductive layer is selectively etched to define a first sidewall thereon, using the mask pattern as an etching mask. The first sidewall of the electrically conductive layer may be exposed to a nitrogen plasma to thereby form a first silicon nitride layer on the first sidewall. The electrically conductive layer is then selectively etched again to expose a second sidewall thereon that is free of the first silicon nitride layer. The mask pattern may be used again as an etching mask during this second step of selectively etching the electrically conductive layer.
