  • Publication number: 20050142856
    Abstract: A method of fabricating an interconnection structure of a semiconductor device includes the steps of successively depositing an etch-stop layer and an intermetal insulating layer on a semiconductor substrate, forming a sacrificial insulating layer on the intermetal insulating layer, forming a photoresist pattern on the sacrificial insulating layer to define a trench formation region, etching the intermetal insulating layer using a mask of the photoresist pattern to form a trench, and etching the entire etch-stop layer.

  • Publication number: 20040157398
    Abstract: A method for fabricating a transistor is disclosed. An example method forms a gate electrode on a semiconductor substrate, forms a first preliminary source/drain region and a pocket junction region through a first ion implantation process using the gate electrode as a mask, the pocket junction region being formed under the first preliminary source/drain region. The example method also forms a first oxide layer with uniform thickness on the substrate including the gate electrode, forms a nitride layer with uniform thickness on the first oxide layer, forms a second oxide layer over the nitride layer and forms spacers on sidewalls of the gate electrode.

  • Publication number: 20040149682
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of forming damascene pattern in a semiconductor device, and the method includes forming an insulating layer on a bottom wiring, forming via holes exposing a part of the bottom wiring by removing the insulating layer selectively, filling insides of the via holes to a prescribed thickness, forming an anti-reflection layer on the via holes and the insulating layer, forming a mask pattern for trench etching on the insulating layer on which the anti-reflection layer is formed, and forming a damascene pattern using the mask pattern for trench etching. CD uniformity is improved by minimizing change of the critical dimension of the damascene pattern, thereby increasing reliability of the semiconductor device.

  • Patent number: 5796649
    Abstract: A DRAM capacitor and a method for fabricating the same, capable of achieving an increase in surface area and thereby an increase in capacitance while reducing the topology, by simply forming a conduction layer, as a charge storage electrode, comprised of conduction spacers around a double-layer pin-shaped conduction layer pattern or a combination of a central conduction layer pattern and an outer conduction layer pattern having an upwardly-opened dome structure surrounding the central conduction layer pattern, using an etch rate difference between insulating films.
