行われるようになってきた。(Prior Art) In recent years, as semiconductor devices have become smaller and more integrated, the area per semiconductor memory element (hereinafter referred to as a memory cell) has become smaller. Instead of planar capacitors formed on semiconductor substrates,
A stacked capacitor is used in which a polycrystalline silicon electrode is used as an electrode, and a capacitive insulating film is formed on the electrode, making use of a large step difference on a semiconductor substrate. A manufacturing method in which the capacitor insulating film is formed using a laminated film of a silicon nitride film and a silicon oxide film has come to be used.

。Next, the above conventional manufacturing method will be explained. A polycrystalline silicon film 2 is formed on a semiconductor substrate 1 by vapor phase growth (CVD), and is made into an electrode by increasing conductivity by diffusing impurities. When a silicon nitride film 4 is formed on the polycrystalline silicon film 2 by CVD, there are
About 10 silicon oxide films 3 are formed. Next, the silicon nitride film 4 is oxidized in a high-temperature heat treatment furnace to form a silicon oxide film 5.
form. On top of that, a polycrystalline silicon film 6 is formed by CVD.
The conductivity is increased by impurity diffusion and becomes an electrode. As described above, a laminated capacitive insulating film of silicon oxide film 3, silicon nitride film 4, and silicon oxide film 5 is formed between the electrodes of polycrystalline silicon films 2 and 6 (Problem to be Solved by the Invention) However, , in the above conventional manufacturing method, the silicon nitride film 4
When forming the silicon oxide film 3, the silicon oxide film 3 is formed by oxidizing the polycrystalline silicon film 2, but impurities are diffused into the polycrystalline silicon. Therefore, since the oxidation rate is affected by the surface impurity concentration, the film thickness varies depending on the surface impurity concentration distribution of the polycrystalline silicon film 2 within a semiconductor substrate or between semiconductor substrates.

半導体基板間で膜厚に差が生じ、容量絶縁膜の膜厚が異

していた。また、酸化珪素膜３は７００〜８００℃で形
成される多結晶シリコン上の酸化珪素膜のため、耐圧が
低く、信頼性を低下させる開運も有していた。For these reasons, the silicon oxide film 3 has a difference in film thickness between the semiconductor substrate and the semiconductor substrate, resulting in a difference in the film thickness of the capacitor insulating film, which causes a problem of a difference in memory cell capacitance. Ta. Furthermore, since the silicon oxide film 3 is a silicon oxide film on polycrystalline silicon formed at 700 to 800° C., it has a low breakdown voltage and has the disadvantage of lowering reliability.
