Patents by Inventor Hyeung-Tae Kim

Hyeung-Tae Kim has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 5629540
    Abstract: The capacitor area is increased with a cylinder-shaped first storage electrode overlapped with a second electrode in an area which covers two adjacent cells. Included in a semiconductor device using the invention may be: a semiconductor substrate; a word line on the substrate; impurity regions at opposite sides of the word line in the substrate; a first contact hole on an odd impurity region; a first storage electrode connected to the first contact hole, which is overlapped with an adjacent even cell; a first sidewall storage electrode at opposite sides of the first storage electrode; a second contact hole on the even impurity region, the second contact hole having an insulated sidewall; a second storage electrode connected to the second contact hole, which is overlapped with an adjacent odd cell; a second sidewall storage electrode at opposite sides of the second storage electrode.

  • Patent number: 5567244
    Abstract: The present invention provides a process for cleaning semiconductor devices which enables the contamination of copper to maintained under a level of about 10.sup.9 atoms/cm.sup.2 to meet the qualification of DRAMs of equal to or greater than 64M bits in capacity by means of supplying O.sub.3 to a solution, resulting in great reproducibility and reliability. According to the present invention, a mechanism for removing a copper impurity in a semiconductor device uses oxygen to form a cupric oxide, which forms a cupric fluoride, which is then removed from the solution.
