Abstract:
To achieve a further reduction in the size of a finished product by reducing the number of externally embedded parts, the embedding of a Schottky barrier diode which is relatively large in the amount of current in a semiconductor integrated circuit device has been pursued. In such a case, it is general practice to densely arrange a large number of contact electrodes in a matrix over a Schottky junction region. It has been widely performed to perform a sputter etching process with respect to the surface of a silicide layer at the bottom of each contact hole before a barrier metal layer is deposited. However, in a structure in which electrodes are thus arranged over a Schottky junction region, a reverse leakage current in a Schottky barrier diode is varied by variations in the amount of sputter etching. The present invention is a semiconductor integrated circuit device having a Schottky barrier diode in which contact electrodes are arranged over a guard ring in contact with a peripheral isolation region.
