    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a dual work function gate conductor having a self-aligned insulating cap, and a method for forming the dual work function gate conductor. SOLUTION: Two diffusion regions 36 are formed on a substrate 20, and gate stacks 33 and 34 are formed on the substrate 20 between these regions 36. The stacks 33 and 34 have a gate insulating layer 24, and polysilicon layers 26 and 26a on the layer 24, respectively. The layers 26 and 26a are n-type doped and remain intrinsic. A barrier layer 28 is formed on each of the layers 26 and 26a. A dopant source 30 is formed on the layer 28 for both stacks 33 and 34. The layer 28 has a p-type dopant. The stacks 33 and 34 are covered with an insulating cap 32 so that diffusion contacts can be formed on the gates in a borderless manner. When to start activating the source 30 for doping the layers 26 and 26a can be postponed until the desired timing.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce an interference action between a buried strap and an access transistor channel of a semiconductor memory, by making a distance between a gate and the side of a trench larger than the minimum feature size. SOLUTION: A trench 102 forms an angle A at 0 degree to 45 degrees to a word line 104, and the angled portion 108 of an active area 106 forms a herringbone pattern to effectively lay out components such as the trench 102 and a contact 116. A portion 110 of the active area 106 is elongated to a value larger than feature size F to increase an average distance to reduce a dopant interference between the buried strap of the trench 102 and the word line 104. Therefore, this realizes a longer distance between the trench 102 and the bit line contact 116.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a manufacturing method of a semiconductor memory structure, especially a deep trench semiconductor memory device for which a temperature sensitive high dielectric constant material is taken inside the storage node of a capacitor. SOLUTION: In this manufacturing method, after shallow trench separation at high temperature and processing a gate conductor, a deep trench storage capacitor is manufactured. With the manufacturing method, a temperature sensitive high dielectric constant material can be taken into a capacitor structure without causing decomposition of the material. Furthermore, the manufacturing method limits the spread of a buried strap outward diffused part 44, and thus the electric characteristics of an array MOSFET are improved.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new deep trench(DT) collar process which reduces disturbance of strap diffusion to an array metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor(MOSFET) of a semiconductor device. SOLUTION: By this method, an oxidation barrier layer is formed on a sidewall of the DT provided in the semiconductor substrate, a photoresist layer of specific depth is provided in the trench to remove the oxidation barrier layer to specific depth and expose the trench sidewall, and the remaining photoresist is removed. A layer of a silicon material is stuck on the exposed trench sidewall, and a dielectric layer is formed on the silicon material layer to form a collar. The remaining oxidation barrier layer is removed from the trench and polysilicon which forms a storage node is charged. Consequently, the distance between a MOSFET gate and a DT storage capacitor is maximized, and the effective edge bias of the DT at its peak is reducible without spoiling the storage capacity.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To simultaneously form a line interconnection of a bit line or the like and borderless contact to a diffused part such as bit line contact. SOLUTION: A semiconductor substrate contains a previously patterned gate stack 12 on the substrate, is covered with a first dielectric substance 40 for forming a first level 42 and then deposited with a second dielectric substance 44 to form a second level 46. A line interconnection opening 62 is formed at a second level 46 by a lithography and etching. The etching is continued to a microcrystallized region of an array region 30 of the substrate, and formed with a borderless contact opening between the gate stacks 12 corresponding to the line interconnection such as an opening of the bit line or the like. These openings are filled with one or more conductors to form the contact with the diffused part such as bit line contact or the like corresponding to the line interconnection of the bit line or the like.

The upper part of the stepped part is filled with a conductive material to serve as a strap 904, and N-type ions are implanted for the formation of a source region 61 inside the substrate 10. An insulating film 905 is attached, a gate electrode 108 is deposited, a trench 105 is cut by etching, a spacer 103 is attached, then N-type ions are implanted to form a drain region 106 adjacent to the upper gate 108, and the opening 105 is filled up with conductor to serve as a contact. The strap 904 serves as a source electrode which crosses the capacitor 41 at grade and is electrically connected to the contact 105, which serves as a drain electrode through the intermediary of diffusion regions 61 and 106 located inside the substrate 10.
