Abstract:
An interlayer insulating film is formed. Then a first gate electrode and a second gate electrode are buried in the interlayer insulating film. Then, an anti-diffusion film is formed over the interlayer insulating film, over the first gate electrode, and over the second gate electrode. Then, a first semiconductor layer is formed over the anti-diffusion film which is present over the first gate electrode. Then, an insulating cover film is formed over the upper surface and on the lateral side of the first semiconductor layer and over the anti-diffusion film. Then, a semiconductor film is formed over the insulating cover film. Then, the semiconductor film is removed selectively to leave a portion positioned over the second gate electrode, thereby forming a second semiconductor layer.
Abstract:
The deposition rate of a porous insulation film is increased, and the film strength of the porous insulation film is improved. Two or more organic siloxane raw materials each having a cyclic SiO structure as a main skeleton thereof, and having mutually different structures, are vaporized, and transported with a carrier gas to a reactor (chamber), and an oxidant gas including an oxygen atom is added thereto. Thus, a porous insulation film is formed by a plasma CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) method or a plasma polymerization method in the reactor (chamber). In the step, the ratio of the flow rate of the added oxidant gas to the flow rate of the carrier gas is more than 0 and 0.08 or less.

Abstract:
To improve information retention resistance of a resistance change memory which requires high information retention resistance. On the assumption that a special data storage memory and a general-purpose data storage memory are distinguished from each other, a forming operation small in resistance rise rate is used for an information writing operation of the special data storage memory. A switching operation is used for information writing of the general-purpose data storage memory. That is, the special data storage memory is configured so as to store information while adapting an initial resistance state to “0” whereas adapting a low resistance state to “1”. On the other hand, the general-purpose data storage memory is configured so as to store information while adapting a high resistance state to “0” whereas adapting a low resistance state to “1”.
Abstract:
The present invention makes it possible to lower the on resistance of a semiconductor element without hindering the function of a diffusion prevention film in a semiconductor device having the semiconductor element that uses a wire in a wiring layer as a gate electrode and has a gate insulation film in an identical layer to the diffusion prevention film. A first wire and a gate electrode are embedded into the surface layer of an insulation layer comprising a first wiring layer. A diffusion prevention film is formed between the first wiring layer and a second wiring layer. A gate insulation film is formed by: forming a recess over the upper face of the diffusion prevention film in the region overlapping with the gate electrode and around the region; and thinning the part.
