Abstract: A method of forming a self-aligned floating gate in a flash memory cell. A capping layer is formed on a trench insulating film. An etching process is then performed to etch the trench insulating film to a desired dimension. Therefore, generation of a moat in the trench insulating film is avoided. Further, spacing of a floating gate formed in a subsequent process can be minimized.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of forming a metal line in a semiconductor device. Upon a process of forming a barrier metal layer of Ti/TiN using an ion metal plasma (IMP) method, an increased AC bias power is applied to increase a deposition thickness of Ti/TiN at an edge portion of the bottom of a contact hole. Therefore, it is possible to prevent penetration of fluorine ions into the semiconductor substrate upon a process of depositing a subsequent tungsten layer.

Abstract: In the method for fabricating a metal wiring, an insulation film is formed on a semiconductor substrate. The insulation film has a contact hole exposing the semiconductor substrate. A Ti—Si film is formed over the silicon substrate, and a Ti—Si—N film is formed on the Ti—Si film. The contact hole is then filled by depositing copper on the Ti—Si—N film, and a silicon nitride film is formed over the silicon substrate.
