Title:
FORMING METHOD OF ELEMENT ISOLATING REGION
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3124441
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PURPOSE: To lessen a bird's beak in length keeping a transistor adequate in threshold value when an element isolating region of a transistor is formed.
CONSTITUTION: A first underlay oxide film 102, a polysilicon film 103, and a first silicon nitride film 104 are successively formed on a silicon substrate 101, and furthermore the first silicon nitride film 104, the polysilicon film 103, the first underlay oxide film 102, and a part of the silicon substrate 101 to serve as an element isolating region are etched using a photoresist as a mask so deep (below 1/3 as thick as an element isolating oxide film) as to make the length of a bird's beak and the threshold value of a field effect transistor adequate. A second underlay oxide film 107 and a second silicon nitride film 108 are formed, and then a nitride film side wall 109 above 25nm in thickness is formed. An element isolating oxide film 110 is formed through selective oxidation using a nitride film as a mask. By this setup, an element isolating region below 0.2μm in length can be formed in a DRAM cell pattern.
