  • Publication number: 20250203855
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes an integrated circuit structure including conductive regions; a capacitor including first electrode structures electrically connected to the conductive regions of the integrated circuit structure, a dielectric layer on the first electrode structures, and a second electrode structure on the dielectric layer; an insulating blocking layer on at least a portion of a surface of the second electrode structure; and an interconnection region on the insulating blocking layer and including a conductive pattern and an insulating structure, wherein the insulating structure includes etch stop layers and interlayer insulating layers that are stacked with one another, wherein at least one of the interlayer insulating layers includes hydrogen, and wherein the insulating blocking layer includes a different material from the etch stop layers.

  • Patent number: 11189618
    Abstract: Disclosed are a semiconductor memory device and a method of manufacturing the same. The semiconductor memory device includes a device isolation layer defining active regions of a substrate, and gate lines buried in the substrate and extending across the active regions. Each of the gate lines includes a conductive layer, a liner layer disposed between and separating the conductive layer and the substrate, and a first work function adjusting layer disposed on the conductive layer and the liner layer. The first work function adjusting layer includes a first work function adjusting material. A work function of the first work function adjusting layer is less than those of the conductive layer and the liner layer.
    Type: Grant
