    • The present invention provides a method of manufacturing a lightly doped drain (LDD) structure using a polymer layer to define the LDD. The polymer layer is formed in an etch step which defines the gate electrode. The method begins by forming spaced field oxide regions 12 in a substrate 10. Next, a gate oxide layer 14, and a material layer 18 and a hard mask layer 22 are sequentially formed over the active area and the field oxide regions 12. A photo resist block 24 is formed over the hard mask layer 22 over the active area. The hard mask layer 22 is etched using the photo resist block 24 as a mask forming a hard mask block 22. The etch simultaneously forms a polymer layer 26 over the a top and sidewalls of the photo resist block 24 and over the sidewalls of the hard mask block. Impurities ions are implanted into the substrate in the active area using the polymer layer 26 as a mask forming highly doped drain regions 30 in the substrate 10. Next, the photo resist block 24 and the polymer layer 26 are removed. The hard mask is used as an etch barrier to etch the gate material to form a gate electrode 19 between the lightly doped drains. Subsequently, impurities ions are implanted into the substrate in the active area using the hard mask block 23 as a mask forming lightly doped drain regions 34 in the substrate 10.

    • A method to make a self-aligned floating gate in a memory device. The method patterns the floating gate (FG) using the trench etch for the shallow trench isolation (STI). Because the floating gate (FG) is adjacent to the raised STI, sharp corners are eliminated between the FG and CG thereby increasing the effectiveness of the intergate dielectric layer. The method includes: forming an first dielectric layer (gate oxide) and a polysilicon layer over a substrate, etching through the first dielectric oxide layer and the polysilicon layer and into the substrate to form a trench. The remaining first dielectric layer and polysilicon layer function as a tunnel dielectric layer and a floating gate. The trench is filled with an isolation layer. The masking layer is removed. An intergate dielectric layer and a control gate are formed over the floating gate and the isolation layer.

    • A method for fabrication of a lightly-doped-drain (LDD) structure for self aligned polysilicon gate MOSFETs is described wherein a polymer layer, formed along the sidewall during the patterning process of the polysilicon gate electrode, is used to mask the source/drain ion implant. The sidewall polymer layer replaces the conventional silicon oxide sidewall as an LDD spacer and offers improved thickness control as well as an improved sequence of processing steps whereby the deposition of a spacer oxide layer onto the gate oxide is eliminated. A cap oxide layer first deposited over the gate polysilicon layer. This oxide layer is then patterned and etched using RIE under conditions which form a polymer sidewall layer along the edges of the cap oxide pattern. The polysilicon layer is then etched, and has a pattern concentric with the cap oxide pattern but wider by the thickness of the polymer sidewall. After removal of the polymer and residual photoresist, the source/drain implant is performed, followed by removal of the polysilicon lip by RIE using the cap oxide as a mask. The LDD implant is then performed.

    • A method for making low sheet resistance local metal interconnections and improved transistor performance is described. The method involves patterning a polysilicon layer and a silicon nitride (Si3N4) cap layer over device areas to form FET gate electrodes, and the patterned polysilicon extends over the field oxide regions to form portions of the local interconnections. After forming source/drain areas and sidewall spacers on the FET gate electrodes, a silicon oxide (SiO2) insulating layer is deposited and polished back to the Si3N4 cap. The Si3N4 is then selectively removed over the patterned polysilicon layer, leaving recesses in the SiO2 layer. After etching contact openings in the SiO2 layer to the substrate, a high electrically conducting metal layer, having a barrier layer, is deposited and patterned to complete the local interconnections. Portions of the metal are retained in the recesses over the pattered polysilicon layer to improve transistor performance, while portions of the metal in the contact openings provide low-contact resistance to the substrate.
