Description
1−1.構造
図8は、本発明の第1の実施の形態に係るSTI構造を示す断面図である。シリコン基板1には、複数のトレンチ5が略平行に設けられている。各トレンチ105内には、素子分離構造としてSTI構造40が形成されている。
次に、図9〜図14を参照して、本実施の形態に係るSTI構造40の製造方法を説明する。
以上に説明されたように、本実施の形態によれば、トレンチ5の内壁に対する従来の直接的な熱酸化処理は行われない。その代わりに、トレンチ5の内壁にはシリコン酸窒化膜10が形成され、そのシリコン酸窒化膜10の酸素透過性を利用したプロセスによって、界面に薄い界面酸化膜20が形成される。この薄い界面酸化膜20が、リーク電流特性の劣化を防止する役割を果たす。また、従来の内壁熱酸化工程が省略されるため、トランジスタが形成される活性領域Raは縮小されない。従って、従来技術と比較して、トランジスタのパフォーマンスが向上する。すなわち、本実施の形態のSTI構造40を有する半導体装置によれば、リーク特性の劣化の防止とパフォーマンスの向上との両立が実現される。
本発明の第2の実施の形態において、上述のSTI構造40がDRAMに適用される。この場合、STI構造40で囲まれた活性領域Raには、メモリセルトランジスタが形成される。また、そのメモリセルトランジスタ(MOSトランジスタ)のソース又はドレインに接続されるようにキャパシタが形成される。
