Abstract: A method of manufacture for flat-cell Mask ROM devices on a silicon semiconductor substrate covered with a first gate oxide layer comprises, forming a first conductor structure on the first gate oxide layer, forming a buried conductive structure within the substrate by ion implantation with a portion thereof in juxtaposition with the first conductor structure, etching away the exposed surfaces of the first gate oxide layer exposing portions of the semiconductor, forming a second gate oxide layer on the surface of the semiconductor, and forming a second conductor structure on the second gate oxide layer.

Abstract: A doped FET DRAM includes a silicon substrate, with a buried bit line in the silicon substrate. A plug extends down through the substrate to the bit line. A source region and a drain region are positioned above the plug in the substrate with one thereof connected to the plug with a layer of gate oxide above the source region and drain region. A gate above the gate oxide is juxtaposed with the source region and drain region. The source is connected to a capacitor formed of two layers of polysilicon separated by a dielectric of an ONO oxide layer.

Abstract: A semiconductor device is formed on a substrate lightly doped with a dopant, a source region and a drain region in the substrate on the surface thereof, a dielectric layer deposited upon the substrate, a first floating gate layer formed on the dielectric layer, a second floating gate layer formed on the the first floating gate layer, a second dielectric material deposited upon the surface of the first floating gate electrode, a control gate electrode deposited upon the surface of the additional dielectric material, and means for applying a voltage to the control gate electrode.

Abstract: An EPROM memory cell and its fabrication are described. The semiconductor substrate is a first conductivity type. The process begins by forming a conductive gate overlying the substrate, but electrically insulated therefrom by a layer of a first dielectric material. The gate includes a first conductive material, a second layer of dielectric material, and a second conductive layer. A sidewall dielectric spacer is formed adjacent to an edge of the gate. Ions are implanted into the substrate of a species of an opposite conductivity type, at a substantial acute angle relative to a vertical angle with respect to the substrate, with the spacer protecting the substrate from ion implantation adjacent to the gate. Alternatively, the sidewall can be formed subsequent to the second deposition of doping ions at an acute angle.

Abstract: A ROM device with an array of cells and a method of manufacturing comprises: forming closely spaced conductors in the surface of a semiconductor substrate having a second type of background impurity. Insulation is formed on the substrate. Closely spaced, parallel, conductors on the insulation are arranged orthogonally to the line regions. Glass insulation is formed over the conductors. Reflowing the glass insulation, forming contacts and forming a metal layer on the glass insulation follow. A resist is formed, exposed forming a resist metal pattern, then etching through the resist to pattern metal and removing the resist. Depositing a resist onto the patterned metal, and exposing the second resist with a custom code pattern, developing the resist into a mask follow. Impurity ions are implanted into the substrate adjacent to the conductors through the openings in a second resist layer.

Abstract: A ROM device with an array of cells has conductors formed in a substrate. Insulation is formed, and parallel conductors are formed orthogonally to the line regions, as thin as about 2000 .ANG.. Glass insulation having a thickness of about 3000 .ANG. or less, formed over the conductors is is reflowed. Contacts and a metal layer on the glass insulation are formed. Resist is patterned and used for etching the resist pattern in the metal. Removal of the second resist and device passivation with a layer having a thickness of about 1000 .ANG., precede activation of the impurity ions by annealing the device at less than or equal to about 520.degree. C. in a reducing gas atmosphere. After resist removal, a second resist is formed and exposed with a custom code pattern to form a mask. Ions are implanted into the substrate with a dosage of between about 1 E 14 and 3 E 14 atoms/cm.sup.2 with an energy of less than or equal to 200 keV adjacent to the conductors through the openings in the insulation.

Abstract: A ROM device provides a double density memory array. The word line array is composed of transversely disposed conductors sandwiched between two arrays of bit lines which are orthogonally disposed relative to the word line array. The two arrays of bit lines are stacked with one above and with one below the word line array. A first gate oxide layer is located between the word line array and a first one of the array of bit lines and a second gate oxide layer is located between the word line array and a the other of the arrays of bit lines. The two parallel sets of polysilicon thin film transistors are formed with the word lines serving as gates for the transistors.

Abstract: A symmetrical, SRAM silicon device comprises substrate comprising a semiconductor material with, a set of buried local interconnection lines in the silicon substrate. A word line is located centrally on the surface of the device. Pull down transistors are located symmetrically one either side of the word line. Interconnections are formed in the same layer as a BN+ diffusion. There is only one wordline composed of polysilicon. The pull down transistors are located on opposite sides of the word line. The cell size is small. There is no 45.degree. layout, and the metal rule is loose. Pass transistor source and drain regions are in the substrate juxtaposed with the buried local interconnection line. There is a layer of gate oxide above the source region and the drain region, and a gate adore the gate oxide juxtaposed with the source region and drain region.
