    Abstract: PURPOSE:To prevent carriers from being extracted from a floating gate to a control gate when data are written, and prevent the state from being mistaken for the erase state when data are read. CONSTITUTION:When a writing voltage is low, data can be written through a channel 21a whose threshold voltage is low. The channel region 21a is arranged in series between a channel region 21b whose threshold voltage is high and a source 12/a drain 13. Thereby, when the channel region 21a is turned into the depletion type by excessive erase of data, the memory cell can be turned into the enhancement type by turning the channel region 21b into the enhancement type.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To realize low voltage without increasing a chip area by constructing a split gate structure without enlarging a memory cell area. CONSTITUTION:An enhancement gate 32 is formed by making a SiO2 14b on the side wall of a tungsten polycide 37 in a trench 36 thicker than a SiO2 on the bottom. A SiO2 41 fills out the top of the tungsten polycide 37, and a contact hole 24 and an opening 44 are positioned on the tungsten polycide 37. As a result, a memory cell area does not only increase but can be reduced instead.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To lessen a semiconductor memory in number of manufacturing processes by a method wherein the gate electrode of a semiconductor memory provided with a buried gate is provided at a position lower than the surface of a substrate, and a semiconductor layer is formed on a source-drain lead-out wiring layer to constitute a thin film transistor. CONSTITUTION:A gate electrode 3 is buried at a position lower than the surface 4 of a substrate as covered with an insulating film 5, and a source region 6 and a drain region 7 are formed on the surface 4 of the substrate sandwiching the gate electrode 3 between them. A wiring layer 10 connected to the source region 6 and the drain region 7 is covered with a thin insulating film 11, and a thin film transistor is formed taking advantage of a semiconductor layer 12 deposited on the insulating film 11. That is, the gate electrode 3 is formed in a substrate at a position deeper than the surface 4 of the substrate 1, and the wiring layer 10 connected to the source region 6 and the drain region 7 is used for a thin film transistor as it is. By this setup, a memory cell high in degree of integration can be obtained without increasing manufacturing processes in number.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To enable the title semiconductor device to be miniaturized by a method wherein the surface of a gate electrode near the surface of a semiconductor substrate is positioned inside the semiconductor substrate. CONSTITUTION:Even if a contact window 18a opposite to a source drain region 15a and a gate electrode 17 are seen as if in contact with each other at the same level, a wiring 21 and a gate 17 opposite to a source drain region 15a are isolated from each other by at least the length between the surface of the gate electrode 17 near a semiconductor substrate 13 and the surface of the semiconductor substrate 13. Furthermore, the gate electrode 17 looks planar when seen from the wiring 21 opposite to the source drain region 15a so as to lessen the fringe effect. Accordingly, the electric field between the wiring 21 opposite to the source drain region 15a and the gate electrode 17 is weak so that specified dielectric strength may be gained even if the contact window 18a opposite to the source drain region 15a and the gate electrode 17 are approached with each other at the same level.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To make it possible to prevent deterioration or breakdown of a gate insulating film arising at removal of a resist film or at ion implantation by forming a conductive layer on a film on a gate insulating film so as to form a gate electrode with the film and the conductive layer. CONSTITUTION:After forming a field insulating layer 2 and a gate insulating film 3, a thin impurity-doped polycrystalline silicon film 4 is formed. Next, ions of, for example, boron B are implanted into the surface part of a semiconductor region 1 through the gate insulating film 3 and the polycrystalline silicon film 4 so as to form an ion implanted region 5 for controlling the threshold voltage Vth. Further, ions of impurity of the same conductivity as the semiconductor region 1 are implanted into the lower part of a channel region formation part so as to form an ion implanted layer 6 in high impurity concentration to suppress the expansion of a depletion layer. Next, an impurity-doped polycrystalline silicon layer 7 constituting a silicon gate electrode, etc., is formed on the whole surface of the film 4. Next, after formation of a silicon gate electrode 8, ions of impurity are implanted into a the semiconductor region 1 with the field insulating film 2 and the gate electrode 8 as a mask so as to form a source region 9 and a drain region 10.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To minimize field concentration while inhibiting the reduction of mutual conductance gm by forming a low impurity-concentration region adjacent to a gate electrode in a surface region in a substrate and also shaping a high impurity-concentration region adjacent to the low impurity-concentration region under the low impurity-concentration region while being adjoined to the low impurity-concentration region. CONSTITUTION:A low impurity-concentration region 5 is formed to a section adjacent to a gate electrode 4 in a surface region in a semiconductor substrate 7. A high impurity-concentration region adjacent to the low impurity- concentration region 5 is also shaped under the low impurity-concentration region 5 while being adjoined to the region 5 in the region 9 deeper than the surface region in the substrate 7. Consequently, currents can flow in the vertical direction (the direction of the arrow (a)). Accordingly, the resistance of source- drain can be minimized, and the reduction rate of mutual conductance gm thereof can be decreased.
