Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a simplified method for processing a structure surface so as to contain a surface higher in a first region and a surface lower in a second region.
SOLUTION: A plurality of layers are formed on a surface, and a lower layer 13 indicates polishing rate higher than that for an upper layer 14, and also, the thicknesses of the plurality of layers are greater than a step height. Thereafter, the plurality of layers are chemically and mechanically polished so as to remove at least a part of the lower layer 13 in the first region. By the use of this method, a leveling can yet be enhanced further. Further, after a wet-cleaning process, a small upper contact opening is obtained, and deformation of the contact opening caused by an annealing processing is decreased.

Abstract: To produce a contact hole plane, in a memory component, a semiconductor substrate (10) is prepared with a cell field zone (101) and a logic zone (102) together with surface gate electrode conductor paths (11,12) under a covering layer (113,123), and an oxide layer (13) is applied. A block mask (14) at the cell fields is used for anisotropic etching of the oxide layer to free the semiconductor surface and covering layer at the logic zone, and the mask is removed. A second oxide layer is applied forming a sacrifice layer over the conductor paths, and a mask layer is deposited and structured to give openings for the bit conductor contacts for the contact openings. An anisotropic etching of the sacrifice layer forms blocks over the contact openings and the mask layer is removed. Etching of the conductor paths and semiconductor surface at the blocks gives them side covers from the two oxide layers. A filling layer is between the blocks, the sacrifice layer blocks are removed at the filling layer, and the contact openings are filled with a conductive material.

Abstract: Production of a contact hole (CB) in a semiconductor structure comprises forming an insulation (60, 70) made from silicon oxide for embedding first and second structural elements (GS1', GS2'), forming a mask (80) on the insulation which has an opening (O) between the structural elements partially overlapping the structural elements, forming a contact hole by etching using the mask, and forming a new side wall spacer (90) on the structural elements in the contact hole.

Abstract: A gate structure of a transistor is fabricated with an additional barrier formed on a metal layer of the gate structure before the deposition of a silicon oxide layer. Applying this barrier layer on the metal layer before the deposition of the silicon oxide layer prevents an oxidation of the metal during the deposition of the silicon oxide layer. A lowering of the conductivity of the metal layer or a loss of metal through sublimating metal oxide is thereby prevented. As a result, in particular the performance of the gate structure or of the transistor is improved further. In addition, disturbing coupling effects in the circuit are significantly reduced by the use of the silicon oxide cap.

Abstract: Production of an integrated semiconductor circuit comprises applying a first conducting layer (1) on a semiconductor substrate; forming a first covering layer on the first conducting layer so that the covering layer extends over a first flat region (I) of the substrate; applying a second conducting layer (2) on the substrate; forming a second covering layer on the second conducting layer in a second flat region (II) so that the covering layer is separated from the boundary between the first flat region and the second flat region using a boundary region having the lowest possible thickness; and etching to remove the second conducting layer and continuing etching until the first covering layer is removed from the boundary region and a trench (G) is formed between the covering layers. Preferred Features: A barrier layer (3) is deposited in the trench to prevent ion diffusion between the two flat regions. The first covering layer is removed by anisotropic etching. An embedded DRAM is produced in the first flat region.

Abstract: Integrated semiconductor circuits have MOS transistors whose gate electrodes are provided with dopings in order to set the electrical potential of the channel area by changing the ionization energy (work function) of the electrons. Transistors in semiconductor circuits, which have both a memory area and a logic area, are produced either using different dopings for pMOS and NMOS transistors in the logic area (dual work function) or using common source/drain electrodes in the memory area (borderless contact), with all the transistors in the semiconductor circuit receiving the same gate doping in the latter case. A method is proposed by which a dual work function and a borderless contact can be produced at the same time. Furthermore, the method results without any additional effort in a trench between the gate layer stacks of the memory area and of the logic area, which prevents lateral ion diffusion.

Abstract: Memory cells are part of two or more integrated circuits (ICs). A testing structure fits between the ICs and has a memory cell (250) with connecting strip conductors (201-206) running in a strip conductor surface of metal and each linking to doping areas (241,243-4,245-7) for transistors (Q1-Q6) via vertical contacts (V1-V6). An Independent claim is also included for a semiconductor disk with two or more integrated circuits set apart from each other and a testing structure between these integrated circuits.
