Abstract: Disclosed are a transistor in the semiconductor device and method of fabricating the same. A gate oxide film is formed using a nitrification oxide film in a low voltage device region and a gate oxide film is formed to have a stack structure of a nitrification oxide film/oxide film/nitrification oxide film in a high voltage device region. An electrical thickness by an increased dielectric constant could be reduced even when a physical thickness of the gate oxide film is increased. The leakage current and diffusion and infiltration of a dopant into the gate oxide film or the channel region could be prevented. Furthermore, an electrical characteristic of the device could be improved by reducing the leakage current.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device by which a high voltage device and a low voltage device are simultaneously formed. Nitrogen ions are implanted only into the semiconductor substrate in the low voltage device region. An oxidation process under N2O gas or NO gas ambient is then performed to form a first nitrification oxide film having a thick thickness in a high voltage device region and a second nitrification oxide film having a thin thickness and a high concentration of nitrogen ions in a low voltage device region. Next, the first and second nitrification oxide films are rapidly nitrified to form a dual gate insulating film consisting of third and fourth nitrification oxide films having a high dielectric constant. Therefore, reliability of a gate insulating film can be improved and increase in the leakage current can be also prevented.
