  • Patent number: 6002609
    Abstract: A testing pad is connected to an EEPROM through a wiring layer of a security circuit and a test circuit, while a testing pad is connected to the EEPROM through a wiring different from the wiring layer and the test circuit. A polysilicon pattern is connected to the wiring layer, and an n-type diffusion region is connected to the wiring. A tunnel insulation film having a thickness of about 100 .ANG. is formed between the polysilicon pattern and the n-type diffusion region. After a test for the function and stored information of the EEPROM is completed, a voltage, which is not lower than a predetermined voltage applied during the test, is applied between the testing pads to break the tunnel insulation film, thereby making the polysilicon pattern and n-type diffusion region conductive.

  • Patent number: 5094967
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a semiconductor substrate device having a non-volatile memory cell region and a logic region including MOS transistors. A first insulating film and a first electrode layer are formed on a semiconductor substrate. Only those portions of the first insulating film and first electrode layer which are located in the logic region are removed, without removing those portions of the first insulating film and first electrode layer which are located in the non-volatile memory cell region. A sacrificial film is deposited for insulation over the entire surface of the memory cell region and logic region, and then a resist film is coated on the sacrificial film. Subsequently, impurity ions are implanted into a desired channel region located in the logic region. The resist film and sacrificial film are removed, and thereafter a second insulating film and a second electrode layer are formed.

  • Patent number: 4743564
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a CMOS type semiconductor device is shown which includes the following steps. A first and a second conductive diffusion region are formed in a well region and a semiconductor substrate, respectively, and a gate electrode is formed thereon. An insulation layer is formed on the semiconductor substrate and the well region. A contact hole is opened by selectively removing the insulation layer corresponding to the first and the second conductive diffusion regions. At least one metal layer selected from a group consisting of metal and metal silicide having a high melting point is formed on an exposed surface of the first and the second conductive diffusion regions. The semiconductor substrate is heated to melt at least part of the insulation layer and form a tapered portion. A wiring layer is formed on the contact hole.

  • Patent number: 4597824
    Abstract: A method of producing a MOS transistor of LDD structure with p(n) type pockets. A doped oxide film in which impurities such as phosphorus and impurities such as arsenic are doped is formed on a semiconductor substrate, and a nitride film is formed in regions where p type pockets are formed on the both sides of a gate electrode. By implementing heat treatment in the atmosphere of oxygen, the portion below the nitride film is placed in the condition where it is equivalent when heat treated in the atmosphere of nitrogen whereby a p type impurity region and an n.sup.- type impurity region are formed. The region except for that below the nitride film is heat treated in the atmosphere of oxygen to form an n.sup.+ type impurity region. Further, with the gate electrode as a mask, n.sup.- type impurity region and p type impurity region are formed, thereafter selectively growing a film on the side walls of the gate electrode to form an n.sup.

  • Patent number: 4597159
    Abstract: A semiconductor device is manufactured by forming a first insulating film on a surface of a semiconductor substrate of a first conductivity type, and a first nonmonocrystalline silicon film is formed on the first insulating film. A second insulating film is deposited on the first nonmonocrystalline silicon film by CVD, sputtering or molecular beam method. An impurity is then ion-implanted in the first nonmonocrystalline silicon film through the second insulating film. The second insulating film is then removed to expose the surface of the first nonmonocrystalline silicon film doped with the impurity, and a thermal oxide film is formed on the exposed portion of the first nonmonocrystalline silicon film. Subsequently, a second nonmonocrystalline silicon film is formed on the thermal oxide film, and a third insulating film is formed on the second nonmonocrystalline silicon film.

  • Patent number: 4412378
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device. In this method an oxidation-resistive insulating film is formed on a silicon body of a one conductivity type. A first impurity region of the opposite conductivity type is selectively formed in said semiconductor body before or after said insulating film is formed.
