  • Patent number: 7989281
    Abstract: Provided is a method for manufacturing a dual gate in a semiconductor device. The method includes forming a gate insulating layer and a gate conductive layer on a semiconductor substrate, forming a diffusion barrier layer on the gate conductive layer, forming a barrier metal layer on the diffusion barrier layer, depositing a first gate metal layer on the barrier metal layer, forming a metal nitride barrier layer on a surface of the first gate metal layer by supplying nitrogen (N2) plasma on the first gate metal layer, forming a second gate metal layer on the metal nitride barrier layer, and forming a hard mask layer on the second gate metal layer.

  • Publication number: 20100159636
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are a method of forming a stable phase change layer without generating seams, and a method of manufacturing phase change memory device using the same. In the method of forming a phase change layer, the phase change layer is formed by performing a first deposition process of a phase change material, performing an etching process so as to etch the phase change material, and performing a second deposition process of a phase change material on the etched phase change material. The etching process and the second deposition process are performed a predetermined number of times.

  • Patent number: 7608535
    Abstract: An interlayer insulation layer is formed on a semiconductor substrate to cover a lower wiring layer that is also formed on the semiconductor substrate. A contact hole to expose a surface of the lower wiring layer is formed by etching the interlayer insulation film. A wetting layer is formed on an inner wall of the contact hole. An anti-deposition layer is formed around an entrance of the contact hole to prevent an aluminum layer from being deposited around the entrance of the contact hole. The contact hole is filled with the aluminum layer.
