    摘要: The present invention intends to provide a semiconductor device capable of realizing a thin gate stack and the manufacturing method thereof. A gate cap layer and/or a protection insulating film (an etching stopper) has a plurality of insulating materials such as oxide and nitride stacked on each other. With this structure, an insulating layer having an etching rate lower than that of the interlayer insulating layer, for example, can be exposed during the etching of the interlayer insulating layer, and the gate stack can be formed thin and the aspect ratio of the contact hole formed in the device can be reduced. The present invention can realize a thin gate stack in such a manner, and thus is suitable for a SAC used in a DRAM.

    摘要: A method of filling one or more trenches formed in a silicon substrate includes the steps of forming a thin polycrystalline silicon film in a trench such that the thin polycrystalline silicon film is sufficiently thin so as to not close the trench; forming an amorphous silicon film on thin polycrystalline film and the surface of the substrate and in the trenches; and annealing the amorphous silicon film such that the amorphous silicon layer migrates to fill the trenches to a first level. The deposition and annealing steps are performed in ambient atmospheres having low partial pressures of H.sub.2 O and O.sub.2, the annealing temperature is higher than the deposition temperature, and the annealing pressure is greater than the deposition pressure.

    摘要: A field effect transistor is manufactured by forming an isolating structure on a semiconductor substrate to define an active area. A gate structure is formed which is insulated from a surface of the active area of the semiconductor substrate. An amorphous silicon film is formed on the gate structure, on the surface of the semiconductor substrate, and on the isolating structure. A first portion of the amorphous silicon film is converted to an epitaxial film and a second portion of the amorphous silicon film is converted to a polysilicon film. Impurities are diffused throughout the polysilicon film and into an upper surface portion of said epitaxial film. The impurity doped polysilicon film and the upper surface portion of the epitaxial film are oxidized to form oxide films and the oxide films are removed so that the epitaxial film remains at least on the active area of the semiconductor substrate. Source and drain regions of the transistor are formed in the active area of the semiconductor substrate.
