  • Patent number: 8821752
    Abstract: The present invention provides an etching composition, comprising a silyl phosphate compound, phosphoric acid and deionized water, and a method for fabricating a semiconductor, which includes an etching process employing the etching composition. The etching composition of the invention shows a high etching selectivity for a nitride film with respect to an oxide film. Thus, when the etching composition of the present invention is used to remove a nitride film, the effective field oxide height (EEH) may be easily controlled by controlling the etch rate of the oxide film. In addition, the deterioration in electrical characteristics caused by damage to an oxide film or etching of the oxide film may be prevented, and particle generation may be prevented, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the etching process.

  • Publication number: 20110212611
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for forming a dual gate of a semiconductor device. The method comprises the steps of forming a first polysilicon layer doped with p-type impurity ions and a second polysilicon layer doped with n-type impurity ions on a first region and a second region of a semiconductor substrate, respectively, and sequentially subjecting the surfaces of the first and second polysilicon layers to wet cleaning, drying, and dry cleaning. The wet cleaning is performed by using a sulfuric acid peroxide mixture (SPM), a buffered oxide etchant (BOE), and Standard Clean-1 (SC-1) as cleaning solutions.

  • Patent number: 7846809
    Abstract: A method for forming a capacitor of a semiconductor device includes the steps of forming first and second sacrificial insulation layers over a semiconductor substrate divided into first and second regions. The second and first sacrificial insulation layers in the first region are etched to define in the first region of the semiconductor substrate. Storage nodes on surfaces of the holes are formed. A partial thickness of the second sacrificial insulation layer is etched to partially expose upper portions of the storage nodes. A mask pattern is formed to cover the first region while exposing the second sacrificial insulation layer remaining in the second region. The exposed second sacrificial insulation layer in the second region is removed to expose the first sacrificial insulation layer in the second region. The exposed first sacrificial insulation layer in the second region and the first sacrificial insulation layer in the first region is removed. The mask pattern is removed.
