Patents by Inventor Yoshihiko Miyawaki

Yoshihiko Miyawaki has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 7300836
    Abstract: This invention is directed to a manufacturing method of a semiconductor device having a MOS transistor and a diffusion resistance layer formed on a same semiconductor substrate, where current leakage from the diffusion resistance layer is minimized. The manufacturing method of the semiconductor device of the invention has following features. That is, a CVD insulation film is formed on a whole surface of an n-type well including on a gate electrode and a p+-type diffusion resistance layer formed thereon. Then, a second photoresist layer is formed having an opening above a part of the diffusion resistance layer. By using this second photoresist layer as a mask, an anisotropic etching is performed to the CVD insulation film to form a sidewall spacer on a sidewall of the gate electrode.

  • Patent number: 7059859
    Abstract: In a semiconductor device having a MOS transistor and a diffused resistor layer, a leakage current of a diffused resistor layer is suppressed. A film of gate electrode material is formed over the entire surface of an N-type well, a photoresist layer is formed to mask a region to form a gate electrode and portions of the diffused resistor layer and the gate electrode and a damage prevention films are formed by anisotropically etching the film of gate electrode material. After forming a CVD insulation film over the entire surface of the N-type well, sidewall spacers are formed on sidewalls of the gate electrode and the damage prevention films by anisotropically etching the CVD insulation film. A source layer and a drain layer of the MOS transistor and contact regions to the diff-used resistor layer are formed by doping portions of the N-type well and the diffused resistor layer with high concentration P-type impurities using the gate electrode, the damage prevention film and the sidewall spacers as a mask.
