| 20090174004 | SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND FABRICATING METHOD THEREOF - A semiconductor device including a semiconductor substrate having first and second device regions. A first trench is formed in the first region and a second trench is formed in the second region. The first trench and the second trench have different widths and different depths. The first trench and the second trench define device isolation regions and active regions. | 07-09-2009 |
| 20090165706 | METHOD FOR FORMING A PLURALITY OF METAL LINES IN A SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE USING DUAL INSULATING LAYER - A method for forming a plurality of metal lines in a semiconductor device including forming first insulating layer patterns on a semiconductor substrate, the first insulating patterns being spaced from each other; depositing a metal layer on and between the first insulating layer patterns; planarizing the metal layer; patterning the planarized metal layer to form the plurality of metal lines between the first insulating layer patterns; and forming a second insulating layer on and between the metal lines. | 07-02-2009 |
| 20090057747 | NONVOLATILE MEMORY DEVICE AND METHOD FOR FABRICATING THE SAME - A nonvolatile memory device including a floating gate formed on a tunnel oxide layer that is formed on a semiconductor substrate. The device also includes a drain region formed in the substrate adjacent to one side of the floating gate, a source region formed in the substrate adjacent to another side of the floating gate, where the source region is apart from the floating gate, and an inter-gate insulating layer formed on a portion of an active region between the source region and the floating gate and on a sidewall of the floating gate directing toward the source region, as well as on a sidewall of the floating gate directing toward the drain region. The device includes a word line formed over the floating gate and being across the substrate in one direction, and a field oxide layer interposing between the word line and the source region and between the word line and the drain region, and intersecting the word line. | 03-05-2009 |
| 20080227248 | CMOS IMAGE SENSOR AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME - A CMOS image sensor and a manufacturing method are disclosed. The gates of the transistors are formed in the active region of the unit pixel, and a diffusion region for the photo diode is defined by an ion implantation of impurities to the semiconductor substrate. The patterns of the photoresist that are the masking layer against ion implantation are formed on the semiconductor substrate in such a manner that they have the boundary portion of the isolation layer so as not to make the boundary of the defined photo diode contact with the boundary of the isolation layer. Damages by an ion implantation of impurities at the boundary portion between the diffusion region for the photo diode and the isolation layer are prevented, which reduces dark current of the COMS image sensor. | 09-18-2008 |
| 20080197427 | METHOD OF FORMING DOUBLE GATE DIELECTRIC LAYERS AND SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE HAVING THE SAME - A method of forming double gate dielectric layers composed of an underlying oxide layer and an overlying oxy-nitride layer is provided to prevent degradation of gate dielectric properties due to plasma-induced charges. In the method, the oxide layer is thermally grown on a silicon substrate under oxygen gas atmosphere to have a first thickness, and then the oxy-nitride layer is thermally grown on the oxide layer under nitrogen monoxide gas atmosphere to have a second thickness smaller than the first thickness. The substrate may have a high voltage area and a low voltage area, and the oxide layer may be partially etched in the low voltage area so as to have a reduced thickness. The oxy-nitride layer behaves like a barrier, blocking the inflow of the plasma-induced charges. | 08-21-2008 |
