Definitions
- the invention relates, in general, to non-volatile memory devices and, more particularly, to a non-volatile memory device having a Polysilicon Oxide Nitride Oxide Semiconductor (SONOS) structure in which a charge trap layer is separated physically horizontally and a method of manufacturing the same.
- SONOS Polysilicon Oxide Nitride Oxide Semiconductor
- Non-volatile Semiconductor Memories are largely classified into floating gate series and Metal Insulator Semiconductor (MIS) series in which two or more kinds of dielectric layers are laminated doubly or triply in terms of the process technology.
- NVSM Non-volatile Semiconductor Memories
- MIS Metal Insulator Semiconductor
- the floating gate series implement a memory characteristic by employing the potential well.
- a representative example of the floating gate series is an EPROM Tunnel Oxide (ETO) structure that has been widely used as flash Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EEPROM).
- ETO EPROM Tunnel Oxide
- EEPROM Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory
- the MIS series performs the memory function employing traps existing at the dielectric layer bulk, the dielectric layer dielectric layer interface, and the dielectric layer-semiconductor interface.
- a representative example of the MIS series is a Metal/Polysilicon Oxide Nitride Oxide Semiconductor (MONOS/SONOS) that has been widely used as flash EEPROM.
- MONOS/SONOS Metal/Polysilicon Oxide Nitride Oxide Semiconductor
- a difference between the SONOS and general flash memory is that in the general flash memory, charges are stored in the floating gate, whereas in the SONOS, charges are stored in the nitride layer in terms of the structure.
- the floating gate is formed using polysilicon.
- the retention time of charge is significantly lowered.
- the nitride layer is used instead of polysilicon as described above. Accordingly, the sensitivity to defect in process is relatively small.
- tunnel oxide having a thickness of about 70 ⁇ is formed under the floating gate.
- tunnel oxide having a thickness of about 70 ⁇ is formed under the floating gate.
- SONOS direct tunneling oxide is formed under the nitride layer. It is therefore possible to implement a memory device having a lower voltage, lower power and high-speed operation.
- a conventional flash memory device having the SONOS structure will be described below with reference to FIG. 1 .
- a tunnel oxide layer 11 , a charge trap layer 12 , a blocking gate (oxide layer) 13 , and an electrode 14 for a gate are sequentially formed on a semiconductor substrate 10 .
- Word line patterns are then formed by an etch process.
- the charge trap layer 12 for storing charges and the tunnel oxide layer 11 different electric field (E-field) cannot be applied to the insulating layers, respectively.
- the charges stored in the nitride layer 12 are moved toward the semiconductor substrate 10 by means of a Fowler-Nordheim (F-N) tunneling current through the tunnel oxide layer 11 and are then erased.
- F-N Fowler-Nordheim
- the invention addresses the above problems, and provides a non-volatile memory device having a SONOS structure, in which a charge trap layer in which charges are trapped toward source and drain is separated physically in order to prevent charges at both sides of the charge trap layer from being moved mutually, and interference between the charges at both sides can be prevented although the cell size is reduced, and a method of manufacturing the same.
- the invention provides a non-volatile memory device, including a gate in which a gate insulating layer, a charge trap layer, a blocking oxide layer and a gate electrode are formed, respectively over a semiconductor substrate.
- the charge trap layer is physically divided by a buffer layer.
- the invention provides a method of manufacturing a non-volatile memory device, including the steps of depositing a gate insulating layer, a buffer layer, a blocking oxide layer and a gate electrode over a semiconductor substrate, respectively, etching the gate electrode, the blocking oxide layer, the buffer layer and the gate insulating layer to form a gate, performing an ion implant process to form source and drain regions within the semiconductor substrate, selectively forming a recessed pattern of the buffer layer by selectively etching the buffer layer both sides, and forming a charge trap layer in the recessed pattern of the buffer layer.
- FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a conventional flash memory device having the SONOS structure
- FIGS. 2 to 5 are cross-sectional views illustrating a method of manufacturing a semiconductor memory device having a SONOS structure according to an embodiment of the invention.
- FIGS. 2 to 5 are cross-sectional views illustrating a method of manufacturing a non-volatile memory device having a SONOS structure according to an embodiment of the invention.
- a gate insulating layer 101 , a buffer layer 102 , a blocking oxide layer 103 and a gate electrode 104 are sequentially formed on a semiconductor substrate 100 .
- the buffer layer 102 may be formed using a silicon oxide layer or a silicon nitride layer.
- the blocking oxide layer 103 may be formed using a high dielectric layer, such as Al 2 O 3 , HfO 2 , Ta 2 O 5 , ZrO 2 , La 2 O 3 or TiO 2 , or a combination of them.
- a silicon oxide layer may be used instead of the blocking oxide layer 103 .
- the gate electrode 104 may be formed using polysilicon doped with an impurity.
- the gate electrode 104 may be formed using transfer metal nitride such as TiN, TaN, TiCN, TaCN, TiSiN, TaSiN, WN or RuTiN.
- the buffer layer 102 is preferably formed to a thickness of 20 ⁇ to 1000 ⁇ .
- the gate electrode 104 , the blocking oxide layer 103 , the buffer layer 102 and the gate insulating layer 101 are sequentially partially etched by an etch process, forming a gate pattern.
- An ion implant process is performed to form a source region 105 and a drain region 106 in the exposed semiconductor substrate 100 .
- an etch process is performed to recess the sides of the exposed buffer layer 102 , thus forming a space. It is preferred that the recessed depth be 1/20 to 1 ⁇ 2 or less of the length of a gate pattern.
- a charge trap layer 107 is then deposited on the entire surface.
- the charge trap layer 107 is preferably formed to completely gap fill the empty space formed by etching the buffer layer 102 .
- the charge trap layer 107 may be formed using a silicon nitride layer or metal oxide layer.
- the process of forming the source region 105 and the drain region 106 may be carried out posterior to the process of depositing the charge trap layer 107 .
- an etch process is performed in such a manner that the charge trap layer 107 remains only at both sides of the buffer layer 102 . That is, it is preferred that the charge trap layer 107 be physically separated by the buffer layer 102 . Due to this, the charge trap layer 107 that traps electric charges is divided into two horizontally at both sides of the gate due to a layer having a physically different property, i.e., the buffer layer 102 .
- the process of forming the source region 105 and the drain region 106 may be performed posterior to the process of etching the charge trap layer 107 .
- the charge trap layer that traps electric charges toward the source and drain is physically divided. It can fundamentally prevent the charges at both sides from being moved mutually. It is therefore possible to prevent interference between charges at both sides although the cell size is reduced.
