Abstract: Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET) is fabricated by forming gate spacers on both sidewalls of a gate pattern in a semiconductor substrate including first and second regions. Then, a first impurity region is formed in the semiconductor substrate at the first region, and the gate spacer exposed at the first region is removed. A second impurity region is formed in the semiconductor substrate at the first region. A third impurity region is formed at the semiconductor substrate in the second region, and the gate spacer exposed at the second region is removed. A fourth impurity region is formed in the semiconductor substrate at the second region. The first and third impurity regions are formed deeper than the second and fourth impurity regions.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method of forming a nonvolatile memory device. The method comprises steps of forming a tunnel insulation pattern and a first floating gate pattern that are sequentially stacked on a semiconductor substrate, and then forming a trench comprising sidewalls aligned with the first floating gate pattern in the semiconductor substrate. Next, a device isolation layer is formed to fill in the trench, and an etch stop layer and a mold layer are sequentially formed on the device isolation layer and on the first floating gate pattern. The mold layer and the etch stop layer are successively patterned to form a groove exposing at least the first floating gate pattern, and a second floating gate pattern is formed to fill in the groove. This method can prevent bridges of floating gate layer that usually occur from regions not being fully etched due to high device integration.

Abstract: A flash memory cell and a method for fabricating the same are provided. A first conductive film exposing a predetermined area of a semiconductor substrate is formed on the semiconductor substrate, and a tunnel oxide and a first interlevel dielectric film are formed on the surface of the semiconductor substrate exposed by the first conductive film and on the surface of the first conductive film, respectively. A floating gate covering the tunnel oxide and extending to the upper portion of the first conductive film in the vicinity of the tunnel oxide is formed as a second conductive film, and a second interlevel dielectric film is formed on the surface of the floating gate. A third conductive film electrically connected to the first conductive film in the vicinity of the floating gate is formed on a second interlevel dielectric film, thereby forming a control gate electrode comprised of the first conductive film and the third conductive film.
