摘要:
A semiconductor device in which a trench-shaped groove (20) and a depression (100), which is formed by removing at least part of the area above and adjacent to the groove, are formed to be continuous on one side of the semiconductor substrate, in which aforementioned groove and aforementioned depression is buried a polysilicon conductive layer (103), the top of which conductive layer is converted into an insulator (102), the bottom of which insulating film (102) is contained in the depression (100). It is possible to form the element areas according to designs, and it is also possible to flatten the surface without wire cutting in the conductive layer.
摘要:
A type of semiconductor device with a configuration characterized by the fact that an electroconductive film (90) is formed beforehand in connection to step (54a) of insulating film (54), and an electroconductive layer (63) with step from the aforementioned electroconductive film is coated to form the side contact of the memory cell.Even in the case when breakage takes place in electroconductive layer (63), the electrical conduction is still maintained via substrate electroconductive film (90), and no wire breakage, in effect, takes place. In addition, it is possible to form the pattern for the aforementioned electroconductive layer by, for instance, etching back method without applying a special mask; hence, the manufacturing process is simplified.

摘要:
A semiconductor device in which a bit line (41), which is adhered to a contact hole (49) between polysilicon gate electrodes (35) and (36), is directly connected with an SiO.sub.2 film (53) having the same pattern on the gate electrodes; wherein an Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 layer (56) is buried outside the contact areas between the gate electrodes to approximately the same height as the SiO.sub.2 layer (53). The interlayer insulating film of the conventional memory cells array unit is no longer required, and it is not necessary to form contact holes in the interlayer insulating film. As a result, even if the gaps between the gates are designed to be small, there will be no short-circuiting between the bit line and word lines due to mask shifting, etc., making it possible to offer a highly integrated, highly reliable device.

摘要:
A memory cell array (300) is disclosed having variable pitch word lines and bit lines. The word lines include central word lines (302a) having a first pitch, and peripheral word lines (302b), situated proximate to the edge of the array (300), having a second pitch that is greater than the first pitch. In a similar fashion, the bit lines include central bit lines (304a) having a third pitch, and peripheral bit lines (304b), situated proximate to the edge of the array (300), having a fourth pitch that is greater than the third pitch. The increase in word line and bit line pitch can reduce the adverse results of proximity effects caused by the junction of the dense array features with the relatively open features of the adjacent periphery circuits.
