Abstract: A semiconductor memory device includes a vertical MISFET having a source region, a channel forming region, a drain region, and a gate electrode formed on a sidewall of the channel forming region via a gate insulating film. In manufacturing the semiconductor memory device, the vertical MISFET in which leakage current (off current) is less can be realized by: counter-doping boron of a conductivity type opposite to that of phosphorus diffused into a poly-crystalline silicon film (10) constituting the channel forming region from an n type poly-crystalline silicon film (7) constituting the source region of the vertical MISFET, and the above-mentioned poly-crystalline silicon film (10); and reducing an effective impurity concentration in the poly-crystalline silicon film (10).

Abstract: A vertical MIS is provided immediately above a trench-type capacitor provided in a memory cell forming region of a semiconductor substrate, and a lateral nMIS is provided in the peripheral circuit forming region of the semiconductor substrate. After forming the capacitor, the lateral nMIS is formed. In addition, after forming the lateral nMIS, the vertical MIS is formed. Furthermore, after forming a capacitor, an isolation part of the peripheral circuit is formed.

Abstract: Disclosed are a gain cell structure capable of making a memory cell compact in size and a method of manufacturing the same at low cost. A memory cell is constituted of a reading MIS transistor and a writing MIS transistor. The reading MIS transistor has a pair of n+ type semiconductor regions (source region and drain region) formed on a main surface of a semiconductor substrate and a first gate electrode formed on a path of the n+ type semiconductor regions 13 via a first gate insulating film. The writing MIS transistor is arranged on the reading MIS transistor and has a layered structure made by laminating a lower semiconductor layer (source region), an intermediate semiconductor layer (channel forming region), and an upper semiconductor layer (drain region) in this order. The writing MIS transistor has a vertical structure in which a second gate electrode is arranged on both sidewalls of the layered structure via a second gate insulating film.
