摘要:
A megabit dynamic random access memory realizing high integration and high reliability is disclosed. The need for an allowance for photomask alignment which is carried out to produce a stacked capacitor memory cell is eliminated. The plate electrode of each memory cell is isolated from the corresponding data line in a memory array by means of an insulating film which is self-alignedly provided around the plate electrode.

An insulation film on silicon buried in a trench is prepared by forming a field oxide film by using a first Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 mask formed on a silicon substrate, forming a second Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 mask for formation of a trench, forming a trench in the silicon substrate by using the second Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 mask, burying polycrystalline silicon in the trench, removing the second Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 mask while leaving the first Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 mask and oxidizing the surface of the polycrystalline silicon buried in the trench by thermal oxidation. The so-formed insulation film on silicon buried in the trench has a uniform thickness and a high dielectric strength. The surface of the substrate at a part where an active element will be formed in the future is not oxidized.

摘要:
A semiconductor memory comprises a switching device and a charge-storage device disposed at the upper and lower sides, respectively, of each of semiconductor islands. The islands are formed on a semiconductor substrate that is completely isolated from the semiconductor substrate by an insulator. The switching device and charge-storage device are substantially the same width. The memory cell structure is extremely small. The cell structure is highly resistant to alpha-particles and is formed self-aligned. During manufacture, the SiO.sub.2 island is oxidized adjacent its lower end to insulate the island from the substrate.
