図13から図18は、図12の半導体装置の製造方法を示す図であり、工程順に示した要部製造工程断面図である。
図13に示すように、p基板51の表面層に、図示しないフォトレジストをマスクにnウェル領域52を形成し、このときnウエル領域52上に形成された図示しない酸化膜をマスクにpウェル領域53を形成し、酸化膜を除去する。この酸化膜除去により、pウェル領域53の表面の高さよりnウェル領域52の表面の高さが低くなり、段差54が生じる。
つぎに、図14に示すように、素子分離のために、pウェル領域53上、pウェル領域53とnウェル領域52の境界付近に選択酸化膜(以下、LOCOS酸化膜55と称す。LOCOSとはLocal Oxidation of Siliconである)を形成する。その後、図示しない犠牲酸化膜を形成し、nウェル領域52とpウェル領域53にそれぞれにイオン注入などによりゲート電極形成箇所下に図示しないチャネル領域を形成する。
13 to 18 are views showing a method for manufacturing the semiconductor device of FIG. 12, and are cross-sectional views of main part manufacturing steps shown in the order of steps.
As shown in FIG. 13, an n-well region 52 is formed on the surface layer of a p-substrate 51 using a photoresist (not shown) as a mask. At this time, an p-well is formed using an oxide film (not shown) formed on the n-well region 52 as a mask. Region 53 is formed and the oxide film is removed. By removing the oxide film, the height of the surface of the n-well region 52 becomes lower than the height of the surface of the p-well region 53, and a step 54 is generated.
Next, as shown in FIG. 14, for element isolation, a selective oxide film (hereinafter referred to as LOCOS oxide film 55) is formed on the p well region 53 and in the vicinity of the boundary between the p well region 53 and the n well region 52. Is a Local Oxidation of Silicon). Thereafter, a sacrificial oxide film (not shown) is formed, and a channel region (not shown) is formed in each of the n well region 52 and the p well region 53 by ion implantation or the like under the gate electrode formation portion.

つぎに、図15に示すように、犠牲酸化膜を除去した後、ゲート酸化膜60、61を例えば10nm形成する。その後、ポリシリコンでゲート電極62、63と、LOCOS酸化膜55上にキャパシタ69の第1電極64とを形成する。そして、通常のMOSFET形成工程にしたがって、pウェル領域53にはnチャネルMOSFET(NMOS)のnソース領域56、nドレイン領域57を形成し、nウェル領域52にはpチャネルMOSFET(PMOS)のpソース領域58、pドレイン領域59を形成する。
つぎに、図16に示すように、キャパシタ69の誘電膜となる酸化膜66をCVD(Chemical Vapor Deposition)により形成し、その上にポリシリコンでキャパシタ69の第2電極67を形成する。
つぎに、図17に示すように、表面にILD72となる酸化膜をCVDで堆積し、例えば、数10秒程度のCMP処理をして、0.6μm程度表面を削って平坦化を行う。
Next, as shown in FIG. 15, after removing the sacrificial oxide film, gate oxide films 60 and 61 are formed to a thickness of 10 nm, for example. Thereafter, the gate electrodes 62 and 63 and the first electrode 64 of the capacitor 69 are formed on the LOCOS oxide film 55 with polysilicon. Then, in accordance with a normal MOSFET formation process, an n source region 56 and an n drain region 57 of an n channel MOSFET (NMOS) are formed in the p well region 53, and a p channel MOSFET (PMOS) p is formed in the n well region 52. A source region 58 and a p drain region 59 are formed.
Next, as shown in FIG. 16, an oxide film 66 serving as a dielectric film of the capacitor 69 is formed by CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition), and a second electrode 67 of the capacitor 69 is formed thereon using polysilicon.
Next, as shown in FIG. 17, an oxide film that becomes ILD 72 is deposited on the surface by CVD, and, for example, CMP is performed for about several tens of seconds, and the surface is flattened by cutting the surface by about 0.6 μm.

つぎに、図18に示すように、第2電極67上と、nソース領域56上、nドレイン領域57上、pソース領域58上およびpドレイン領域59上のILD72に開口部74、75、76をそれぞれ形成し、これらの開口部74、75、76をアルミニウムなどで充填してプラグ77、78、79を形成し、このプラグ77、78、79と接続する配線80、81とキャパシタ配線82およびパッド用電極83をアルミニウムで同時に形成する。この図18は、図12の従来の半導体装置の要部断面図となる。
上記プロセスにより集積回路を作製した場合、ILD72をCMP処理により平坦化すると、コンタクトを取る箇所のILD72の厚さが場所によって変わってくる。ソース領域56、58およびドレイン領域57、59などシリコン層とコンタクトする箇所のILD72の厚さは厚く、キャパシタ69を構成する第2電極67とコンタクトする箇所のILD72の厚さは薄い。そのため、ILD72の薄い第2電極67とのコンタクトは、オーバーエッチして、図19のA部で示すように、第2電極67が削れて取られると、第2電極67とプラグ79とのコンタクトは第2電極67の側面から取るようになり接触抵抗が増大してコンタクト不良となる。また、図示しないが誘電膜である酸化膜66を突き抜けて第1電極64に達してキャパシタ69が短絡することもある。
Next, as shown in FIG. 18, openings 74, 75, 76 are formed in the ILD 72 on the second electrode 67, the n source region 56, the n drain region 57, the p source region 58, and the p drain region 59. These openings 74, 75, 76 are filled with aluminum or the like to form plugs 77, 78, 79, wirings 80, 81 connected to the plugs 77, 78, 79, capacitor wirings 82 and The pad electrode 83 is simultaneously formed of aluminum. FIG. 18 is a fragmentary cross-sectional view of the conventional semiconductor device of FIG.
In the case where an integrated circuit is manufactured by the above process, when the ILD 72 is planarized by CMP, the thickness of the ILD 72 where the contact is made varies depending on the location. The thickness of the ILD 72 where the source regions 56 and 58 and the drain regions 57 and 59 are in contact with the silicon layer is large, and the thickness of the ILD 72 where the second region 67 is in contact with the second electrode 67 constituting the capacitor 69 is thin. Therefore, when the contact with the thin second electrode 67 of the ILD 72 is over-etched and the second electrode 67 is cut away and removed as shown in part A of FIG. 19, the contact between the second electrode 67 and the plug 79 Is taken from the side surface of the second electrode 67 and the contact resistance increases, resulting in a contact failure. Although not shown, the capacitor 69 may be short-circuited through the oxide film 66 that is a dielectric film to reach the first electrode 64.

また、ILD72をCMP処理する際に平坦化は良好に行われるが、CMP処理は枚葉式で行われるために、研磨量がウェハ間でばらつく場合がある。また、ウェハがゴミなどの介在で傾いたり、ウェハに反りがある場合には、研磨量がウェハ面内でばらつく。このように研磨量にばらつきがあると、研磨量が少ないとILD72の厚さが厚くなり、コンタクトする箇所にILD72が残りコンタクト不良になる。一方、研磨量が多いとオーバーエッチが多すぎて前記のように第2電極67が削れ取られてしまい、コンタクト不良となる。
これらを解決するために、CMP処理でストッパ膜を用いると、ストッパ膜のパターンを形成するためにフォトマスクを追加しなければならず製造コストが増大する。
このストッパ膜を回路形成領域に設けた場合について説明する。
Further, although flattening is performed satisfactorily when the ILD 72 is subjected to the CMP process, the polishing amount may vary between wafers because the CMP process is performed in a single wafer mode. Further, when the wafer is tilted due to the presence of dust or the like, or the wafer is warped, the polishing amount varies within the wafer surface. When the polishing amount varies as described above, the ILD 72 becomes thick when the polishing amount is small, and the ILD 72 remains at the contact point, resulting in poor contact. On the other hand, when the polishing amount is large, the over-etching is excessive and the second electrode 67 is scraped off as described above, resulting in contact failure.
In order to solve these problems, if a stopper film is used in the CMP process, a photomask must be added to form the pattern of the stopper film, and the manufacturing cost increases.
The case where this stopper film is provided in the circuit formation region will be described.

図20は、ストッパ膜を回路形成領域に設けた半導体装置の要部構成図であり、同図(a)は平面図、同図(b)は同図(a)のX−X線で切断した断面図である。
回路形成領域84には、キャパシタ69とストッパ膜65が4箇所に形成されている。同図(b)は図12(b)に相当する図であるが、X−X線上にはキャパシタ69が形成されていない場合の図である。
ストッパ膜65の表面の高さをキャパシタ69の第2電極67より高くするために、ストッパ膜65を形成する箇所のILD72内には高さ調整用の第1ポリシリコン膜64、第2ポリシリコン膜67がキャパシタ69の第1電極64、第2電極67と同時に形成されている。このストッパ膜65を設けることで、ILD72の研磨量を所定量にすることができる(例えば、特許文献1)。
20A and 20B are main part configuration diagrams of a semiconductor device in which a stopper film is provided in a circuit formation region. FIG. 20A is a plan view, and FIG. 20B is cut along line XX in FIG. FIG.
In the circuit formation region 84, capacitors 69 and stopper films 65 are formed at four locations. FIG. 12B is a diagram corresponding to FIG. 12B, but is a diagram in the case where the capacitor 69 is not formed on the XX line.
In order to make the height of the surface of the stopper film 65 higher than that of the second electrode 67 of the capacitor 69, the first polysilicon film 64 and the second polysilicon for height adjustment are formed in the ILD 72 where the stopper film 65 is formed. The film 67 is formed simultaneously with the first electrode 64 and the second electrode 67 of the capacitor 69. By providing the stopper film 65, the polishing amount of the ILD 72 can be set to a predetermined amount (for example, Patent Document 1).

しかし、ストッパ膜65として昨日するためには面積や数が必要となるためて、ストッパ膜65を形成する部分を回路形成領域84内に設けると回路形成領域84の面積が減少する。
この回路形成領域の面積を減少させないために、層間絶縁膜の膜厚を管理するモニターパターンをスクライブラインに設けて、層間絶縁膜の膜厚を測定して管理する方法が報告されている(例えば、特許文献2)。
特開2002−353220号公報 図15 特開2002−83792号公報 図1
However, since the area and the number of the stopper film 65 are required to be used yesterday, the area of the circuit formation region 84 is reduced when the portion for forming the stopper film 65 is provided in the circuit formation region 84.
In order not to reduce the area of this circuit formation region, a method of measuring and managing the thickness of the interlayer insulating film by providing a monitor pattern for controlling the thickness of the interlayer insulating film on the scribe line has been reported (for example, Patent Document 2).
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-353220 FIG. Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-83792 FIG.

しかし、回路形成領域84の面積が減少しないように、ストッパ膜65をスクライブラインに設ける場合、スクライブラインには、PCM(Process Control Monitor)等のモニタを多数形成することが多く、ストッパ膜65を形成する面積が十分に得られないことがある。このストッパ膜65の面積が小さいと、CMP処理でストッパ膜65が削られて前記のILD72の研磨量がばらつき、コンタクト不良を起こす。
この発明の目的は、前記の課題を解決してコンタクト不良を防止できる半導体装置およびその製造方法を提供することにある。
However, when the stopper film 65 is provided on the scribe line so that the area of the circuit formation region 84 is not reduced, many monitors such as PCM (Process Control Monitor) are often formed on the scribe line. A sufficient area may not be obtained. If the area of the stopper film 65 is small, the stopper film 65 is scraped by the CMP process, the amount of polishing of the ILD 72 varies, and contact failure occurs.
An object of the present invention is to provide a semiconductor device and a method for manufacturing the same that can solve the above-described problems and prevent contact failure.

図2に示すように、p基板1の表面層に、図示しないフォトレジストをマスクにnウェル領域2を形成し、このときnウエル領域2上に形成された図示しない酸化膜をマスクにpウェル領域3を形成し、酸化膜を除去する。この酸化膜除去により、pウェル領域3の表面の高さよりnウェル領域1の表面の高さが低くなり、段差4が生じる。
つぎに、図3に示すように、素子分離のために、pウェル領域3上、pウェル領域3とnウェル領域1の境界付近にLOCOS酸化膜5を形成する。その後、図示しない犠牲酸化膜を形成し、nウェル領域1とpウェル領域3のそれぞれにイオン注入などによりゲート電極形成箇所下に図示しないチャネル領域を形成する。
2 to 7 are views showing a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device according to a second embodiment of the present invention, and are cross-sectional views showing main part manufacturing steps shown in the order of steps. This method of manufacturing a semiconductor device shows the method of manufacturing the semiconductor device of FIG. Moreover, these process sectional views are sectional views corresponding to FIG.
As shown in FIG. 2, an n-well region 2 is formed on a surface layer of a p-substrate 1 using a photoresist (not shown) as a mask. At this time, an oxide film (not shown) formed on the n-well region 2 is used as a mask. Region 3 is formed and the oxide film is removed. By removing the oxide film, the height of the surface of the n-well region 1 becomes lower than the height of the surface of the p-well region 3, and a step 4 is generated.
Next, as shown in FIG. 3, a LOCOS oxide film 5 is formed on the p-well region 3 in the vicinity of the boundary between the p-well region 3 and the n-well region 1 for element isolation. Thereafter, a sacrificial oxide film (not shown) is formed, and a channel region (not shown) is formed in each of the n well region 1 and the p well region 3 by ion implantation or the like under the gate electrode formation portion.

つぎに、図4に示すように、犠牲酸化膜を除去した後、ゲート酸化膜10、11を例えば10nm形成する。その後、ポリシリコンでゲート電極12、13と、LOCOS酸化膜5上にキャパシタ19の第1電極14とパッド用電極33形成箇所に高さ調整用の第1ポリシリコン膜15とを同時に形成する。この第1ポリシリコン膜15を形成するのは、後で形成するパッド用電極33形成箇所のストッパ膜21の表面の高さをキャパシタ19形成箇所のストッパ膜20の表面の高さと同一とするために必要である。そして、通常のMOSFET形成工程にしたがって、pウェル領域3にはnチャネルMOSFET(NMOS)のnソース領域6、nドレイン領域7を形成し、nウェル領域2にはpチャネルMOSFET(PMOS)のpソース領域8、pドレイン領域9を形成する。
つぎに、図5に示すように、キャパシタ19の誘電膜となる酸化膜16をCVDにより形成し、その上にポリシリコンでキャパシタ19の第2電極17と、高さ調整用の第2ポリシリコン膜18を同時に形成する。この第2ポリシリコン膜18を形成するのは、後で形成するパッド用電極33形成箇所に形成されるストッパ膜21の表面の高さをキャパシタ19形成箇所のストッパ膜20の表面の高さと同一にして、キャパシタ19の第2電極17がCMP処理で削られることを防止する。
Next, as shown in FIG. 4, after removing the sacrificial oxide film, gate oxide films 10 and 11 are formed to a thickness of 10 nm, for example. Thereafter, the gate electrodes 12 and 13, and the first electrode 14 of the capacitor 19 and the first polysilicon film 15 for height adjustment are simultaneously formed on the LOCOS oxide film 5 at the position where the pad electrode 33 is formed. The first polysilicon film 15 is formed in order to make the height of the surface of the stopper film 21 where the pad electrode 33 is formed later the same as the height of the surface of the stopper film 20 where the capacitor 19 is formed. Is necessary. Then, in accordance with a normal MOSFET formation process, an n source region 6 and an n drain region 7 of an n channel MOSFET (NMOS) are formed in the p well region 3, and a p channel MOSFET (PMOS) p is formed in the n well region 2. A source region 8 and a p drain region 9 are formed.
Next, as shown in FIG. 5, an oxide film 16 serving as a dielectric film of the capacitor 19 is formed by CVD, on which a second electrode 17 of the capacitor 19 and a second polysilicon for height adjustment are formed with polysilicon. The film 18 is formed simultaneously. The second polysilicon film 18 is formed because the height of the surface of the stopper film 21 formed at the place where the pad electrode 33 is formed later is the same as the height of the surface of the stopper film 20 where the capacitor 19 is formed. Thus, the second electrode 17 of the capacitor 19 is prevented from being scraped by the CMP process.

また、これらのストッパ膜20、21の表面の高さは、回路形成領域34内に形成されるゲート電極12、13やソース領域/ドレイン領域など他の箇所の表面の高さよりも高くすることで、CMP処理で表面が削られるのを防止する。
つぎに、図6に示すように、第2電極17上と第2ポリシリコン膜18上にILD22となる酸化膜を形成し、この酸化膜上のキャパシタ19形成箇所とパッド用電極33形成箇所に窒化膜でストッパ膜20、21を形成する。その後、さらにその表面にILD22となる酸化膜をCVDで堆積させた後、このILD22となる酸化膜をパッド用電極33形成箇所のストッパ膜21が露出するまでCMP処理をして平坦化する。このとき、第2電極17上のストッパ膜20も露出する。尚、CPM処理した後はストッパ膜20、21は役目を終えるので削除しても構わない。
Further, the heights of the surfaces of these stopper films 20 and 21 are made higher than the heights of the surfaces of other portions such as the gate electrodes 12 and 13 and the source / drain regions formed in the circuit formation region 34. The surface is prevented from being scraped by the CMP process.
Next, as shown in FIG. 6, an oxide film to be ILD 22 is formed on the second electrode 17 and the second polysilicon film 18, and the capacitor 19 and the pad electrode 33 are formed on the oxide film. Stopper films 20 and 21 are formed of a nitride film. Thereafter, an oxide film to be ILD 22 is further deposited on the surface by CVD, and then the oxide film to be ILD 22 is planarized by CMP until the stopper film 21 at the position where the pad electrode 33 is formed is exposed. At this time, the stopper film 20 on the second electrode 17 is also exposed. Note that after the CPM treatment, the stopper films 20 and 21 finish their roles and may be deleted.

つぎに、図7に示すように、第2電極17上のストッパ膜20と、nソース領域6上、nドレイン領域7上、pソース領域8上およびpドレイン領域9上のILD22に開口部24、25、26をそれぞれ形成し、これらの開口部24、25、26をアルミニウムなどで充填してプラグ27、28、29を形成し、これらのプラグ27、28、29と接続する配線30、31とキャパシタ配線32と、ストッパ膜21上にパッド用電極33をアルミニウムで同時に形成する。前記したように、このパッド用電極33下のストッパ膜21の表面の高さが他の箇所より高くなるようにストッパ膜21は形成される。
パッド用電極33形成箇所にストッパ膜21を形成することで、回路形成領域34の面積を小さくすることがない。
また、開口部24、25、26を同時にエッチングにより形成する際、第2電極20上に形成されるストッパ膜20のエッチングレートをILD22のエッチングレートより小さい条件で行うことで、第2電極17のオーバーエッチングを減少できるので、コンタクト不良を防止できる。
Next, as shown in FIG. 7, the opening 24 is formed in the stopper film 20 on the second electrode 17 and the ILD 22 on the n source region 6, the n drain region 7, the p source region 8 and the p drain region 9. 25, 26 are formed, and the openings 24, 25, 26 are filled with aluminum or the like to form plugs 27, 28, 29, and wirings 30, 31 connected to these plugs 27, 28, 29 are formed. The pad electrode 33 is simultaneously formed of aluminum on the capacitor wiring 32 and the stopper film 21. As described above, the stopper film 21 is formed so that the height of the surface of the stopper film 21 under the pad electrode 33 is higher than that of other portions.
By forming the stopper film 21 at the position where the pad electrode 33 is formed, the area of the circuit formation region 34 is not reduced.
Further, when the openings 24, 25, and 26 are simultaneously formed by etching, the etching rate of the stopper film 20 formed on the second electrode 20 is performed under a condition that is lower than the etching rate of the ILD 22, thereby Since over-etching can be reduced, contact failure can be prevented.

図8は、この発明の第3実施例の半導体装置の製造方法を示す図であり、同図(a)から同図(b)は工程順に示した要部製造工程断面図である。これら図は図6、図7に相当する図であり、図8(b)はこの発明の半導体装置の要部断面図でもある。
第2実施例との違いは、図6の工程で、ILD22となる酸化膜を第2電極17上および第2ポリシリコン膜18上に形成しないで、窒化膜のストッパ膜20、21を形成した点である。こうすることで、ストッパ膜20、21の形成と、第2電極17、第2ポリシリコン膜18の形成を1枚のマスクで同時にできるため、工程の短縮とフォトマスク枚数の削減ができる。
尚、パッド用電極33下のストッパ膜21はpウェル領域3上のLOCOS酸化膜5上に形成されており、その表面の高さはチップ100内で一番高くなる。
FIG. 8 is a view showing a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device according to a third embodiment of the present invention. FIGS. 8A to 8B are sectional views showing the main part manufacturing steps shown in the order of steps. These drawings correspond to FIGS. 6 and 7, and FIG. 8B is a cross-sectional view of the main part of the semiconductor device of the present invention.
The difference from the second embodiment is that the nitride stopper films 20 and 21 are formed without forming the oxide film to be the ILD 22 on the second electrode 17 and the second polysilicon film 18 in the step of FIG. Is a point. By doing so, the formation of the stopper films 20 and 21 and the formation of the second electrode 17 and the second polysilicon film 18 can be performed simultaneously with one mask, so that the process can be shortened and the number of photomasks can be reduced.
The stopper film 21 under the pad electrode 33 is formed on the LOCOS oxide film 5 on the p-well region 3, and the height of the surface thereof is the highest in the chip 100.

図9は、この発明の第4実施例の半導体装置の製造方法を示す図であり、同図(a)から同図(b)は工程順に示した要部製造工程断面図である。これらの図は図6、図7に相当する図であり、図9(b)はこの発明の半導体装置の要部断面図でもある。これらの要部製造工程断面図は、図1(a)のX2−X2で切断した要部断面図に相当する。
第3実施例との違いは、キャパシタ19がnウェル領域2上のLOCOS酸化膜5上にに形成されている点である。こうすることで、キャパシタ19となる部分の第2電極17上のB部にはnウエル領域2とpウェル領域3の段差分のILD22が形成される。
第2電極20と隣接してILD22上に配線35が形成された場合、このILD22が層間絶縁膜となって、配線35と第2電極17との間の絶縁を確保できる。
尚、パッド用電極33下のストッパ膜21はpウェル領域3上のLOCOS酸化膜5上に形成されており、その表面の高さはチップ100内で一番高くなる。
FIG. 9 is a view showing a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention, and FIGS. 9A to 9B are sectional views showing the principal part manufacturing steps shown in the order of steps. These drawings correspond to FIGS. 6 and 7, and FIG. 9B is a cross-sectional view of the main part of the semiconductor device of the present invention. These principal part manufacturing process sectional views correspond to principal part sectional views cut along X2-X2 in FIG.
The difference from the third embodiment is that the capacitor 19 is formed on the LOCOS oxide film 5 on the n-well region 2. As a result, an ILD 22 corresponding to the level difference between the n-well region 2 and the p-well region 3 is formed in the portion B on the second electrode 17 in the portion that becomes the capacitor 19.
When the wiring 35 is formed on the ILD 22 adjacent to the second electrode 20, the ILD 22 serves as an interlayer insulating film, and insulation between the wiring 35 and the second electrode 17 can be ensured.
The stopper film 21 under the pad electrode 33 is formed on the LOCOS oxide film 5 on the p-well region 3, and the height of the surface thereof is the highest in the chip 100.

図10は、この発明の第5実施例の半導体装置の製造方法を示す図であり、同図(a)から同図(b)は工程順に示した要部製造工程断面図である。これらの図は図6、図7に相当する図であり、図10(b)はこの発明の半導体装置の要部断面図でもある。
第3実施例との違いは、CMP処理での平坦化した後の図8(a)のILD22の表面36(スパッタ膜20、22の表面でもある)にさらにILDとなる酸化膜37を形成した点である。こうすることにより、窒化膜のストッパ膜20、21が多少CMP処理で削られても、ILD22の膜厚を十分厚く確保することができる。この場合も第4実施例と同様にILD22上に形成される配線35と第2電極17との間の絶縁を確保できる。
10A and 10B are views showing a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device according to a fifth embodiment of the present invention. FIGS. 10A to 10B are cross-sectional views showing the main part manufacturing steps shown in the order of steps. These drawings correspond to FIGS. 6 and 7, and FIG. 10B is a cross-sectional view of the main part of the semiconductor device of the present invention.
The difference from the third embodiment is that an oxide film 37 to be an ILD is further formed on the surface 36 of the ILD 22 (also the surface of the sputtered films 20 and 22) of FIG. 8A after planarization by CMP processing. Is a point. By doing so, the ILD 22 can be sufficiently thick even if the stopper films 20 and 21 of the nitride film are slightly cut by the CMP process. In this case as well, insulation between the wiring 35 formed on the ILD 22 and the second electrode 17 can be ensured as in the fourth embodiment.

図11は、この発明の第6実施例の半導体装置の要部断面図である。これはキャパシタ19が無い場合である。この半導体装置の製造方法は第2実施例において、キャパシタ19を削除すればよい。キャパシタ19がないために、図4の第1ポリシリコン膜15および図5の第2ポリシリコン膜18などを形成する必要がない。この場合も、パッド用電極33形成箇所にストッパ膜21を形成することで、回路形成領域34の面積は減少しない。   FIG. 11 is a sectional view showing the principal part of a semiconductor device according to the sixth embodiment of the present invention. This is the case where there is no capacitor 19. In this semiconductor device manufacturing method, the capacitor 19 may be eliminated in the second embodiment. Since there is no capacitor 19, it is not necessary to form the first polysilicon film 15 of FIG. 4, the second polysilicon film 18 of FIG. Also in this case, the area of the circuit formation region 34 is not reduced by forming the stopper film 21 at the position where the pad electrode 33 is formed.
