In a DRAM having a structure in which a storage node electrode is formed via an insulator film in a trench formed in a memory cell region to thereby form a capacitor, and in which the storage node electrode is connected in the source/drain regions of a MOSFET through a storage node contact formed in a part of the insulator film, the trench is disposed so as to deviate widthwise in a channel region of the MOSFET, so that the distance between adjacent element regions is reduced without causing misalignment of masks used in the formation of the storage node contact, thereby to provide a miniaturized high-reliability DRAM. In addition, the storage node contact and the trench can be formed in large size.

A semiconductor memory device wherein at least one of a storage node contact hole and a bit line contact hole includes a first contact hole made in a first inter-layer insulating film formed over a gate electrode and a second contact hole made in a second inter-layer insulating film formed over an electrically conductive material embedded up to a level higher than the gate electrode in the first contact hole which is contacted with the electrically conductive material, the conductive material being exposed by etching a part of the second inter-layer insulating film, whereby the size of the memory device can be made small and the reliability can be improved. Further, a capacitor is formed in a layer higher than a bit line thereby to facilitate the processing of a storage node electrode to increase the capacitor area and to improve the reliability since it is unnecessary to carry out patterning a plate electrode within a cell array. With the above construction, a short-circuiting between the embedded layers is removed and a good quality of the second inter-layer insulating film is formed.
摘要:
A manufacturing method of semiconductor devices and semiconductor devices isolated by a trench portion. The trench portion is refilled with a Si epitaxial growth layer. The trench has a first insulating layer on its side wall and a second insulating layer formed by the oxidation in the self-alignment manner, as a cap layer, on the top portion of the trench. A semiconductor device formed on the substrate is isolated by the trench. The excessive leakage currents created by the stress between the substrate and the Si epitaxial layer are decreased. The concentration of the field effect at the corner portion of the trench is suppressed by the cap layer.The refilling step can be also made to a trench having the wider opening and another trench having the narrower opening simultaneously and uniformly.

A MOS-type semiconductor integrated circuit device is provided in which MOS transistors are formed in a vertical configuration. The MOS transistors are constituted by pillar layers formed on the substrate. The outer circumferential surfaces of the pillar layers are utilized to form the gates of the MOS transistors. Thus, large gate widths thereof can be obtained within a small area. As a result, the total chip area of the MOS transistors can be significantly reduced while maintaining a prescribed current-carrying capacity.

This invention provides a semiconductor device by which a high-speed DRAM cell and logic circuit can be obtained without increasing the number of fabrication steps, and a method of fabricating the same. A memory cell is constructed of capacitors formed in two end portions of an element formation region of a silicon substrate and a MOS transistor formed between these capacitors. The interval between gate electrodes of MOS transistors in adjacent memory cells is made larger than the intervals between these gate electrodes and gate electrodes formed outside the former gate electrodes. A portion above an n-type diffusion layer connected to a capacitor node is filled with a spacer insulating film, and an n-type diffusion layer connected to a bit line is covered with the spacer insulating film. A titanium silicide film is formed on one of these n-type diffusion layers and the gate electrodes. In a first transistor in a memory cell array, a metal silicide film is not formed on the surfaces of source and drain diffusion layers and is formed only on the surface of a gate electrode. In a second transistor in a logic circuit, a metal silicide film is formed on the surfaces of source and drain diffusion layers and a gate electrode.
