Abstract: Disclosed are an asymmetric recessed gate MOSFET, and a method for manufacturing the same. The asymmetric recessed gate MOSFET comprises: recess regions formed at a predetermined depth in a semiconductor; recessed gate electrodes formed at a predetermined height on a semiconductor substrate by gap-filling the recess regions, and misaligned with the recess region corresponding to one of the source/drain regions; spacers formed on sides of the recessed gate electrodes; and source/drain regions implanted with a dopant formed in the semiconductor substrate exposed between the spacers. The overlap between the gate electrodes and the source/drain regions can be reduced by having one of the source/drain regions misaligned with the recess regions in the recessed gate structure, and abnormal leakage current caused by consistency between an electron field max point A and a stress max pint B can be sharply reduced by changing the profile of the source/drain regions.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a recess-gate structure in which junctions have a thickness significantly smaller than the thickness of a device isolation layer to thereby prevent shorting of the junctions located at opposite lateral sides of the device isolation layer close thereto, resulting in an improvement in the operational reliability of a resultant device, and a method for forming the same. The recess-gate structure comprises a silicon substrate in which an active region and a device isolation region are defined, a plurality of gates formed on the substrate, gate spacers formed at the side wall of the respective gates, and junctions formed in the substrate at opposite lateral sides of the gates and defining an asymmetrical structure relative to each other. A gate recess is defined in the active region of the substrate to have a stepped profile consisting of a bottom plane, top plane, and vertical plane.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for fabricating a semiconductor device wherein boron-halo ion implantation is performed only to a bit-line contact part while masking a storage node contact part. The method comprises the steps of: performing a first ion implantation into the semiconductor substrate to control the threshold voltage Vt; forming a gate electrode on the semiconductor substrate in which the first ion implantation has been performed; performing a second ion implantation with a tilt of desired degree, using the gate electrode as a mask in order to control the threshold voltage; and performing a third ion implantation to form an LDD region in the substrate region at both sides of the gate electrode. In this method, the first ion implantation is performed at a range of below 90% of the whole doping concentration required to control the threshold voltage, and the second ion implantation is performed with a degree of below 30° and in two directions or four directions vertical to the gate electrode.
