Abstract: The present invention discloses methods for manufacturing a capacitor of a semiconductor device employing doped silicon film as an electrode and an oxide film-nitride film-oxide film as a dielectric film. An interlayer insulating film is formed on a semiconductor substrate. A storage electrode is formed consisting of a doped polysilicon on the interlayer insulating film. A first oxide film is formed on the storage electrode that is subjected to a thermal treatment in an atmosphere containing an n-type impurity to implant the impurity into the first oxide film. A nitride film is formed on the first oxide film, whereby the impurity in the first oxide film is diffused into the nitride film. A second oxide film is formed on the nitride film. A plate electrode is then formed on the second oxide film.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device. The method includes the steps of forming a gate in a cell region and a peripheral region of a substrate, depositing a buffer oxide layer on the gate and the substrate, annealing a resultant structure of the substrate, depositing a nitride spacer layer on the buffer oxide layer, depositing an oxide spacer layer on the nitride spacer layer, forming an oxide spacer at the peripheral region of the substrate, and removing the oxide spacer layer remaining in the cell region. The annealing step is additionally carried out after depositing the buffer oxide layer so as to improve the interfacial surface characteristic and film quality, so that oxide etchant is prevented from penetrating into the silicon substrate during the wet dip process. Unnecessary voids are prevented from being created in the silicon substrate.
