題がある。(Prior Art) In recent years, attempts have been made to reduce the dimensions of elements due to the demand for higher integration of semiconductor integrated circuits. For example, as shown in FIG. 1, a MOS capacitor for storing memory is formed by providing a capacitor electrode on the main surface of a semiconductor substrate 1 via an insulating film 2.
In the MOS dynamic RAM, it is conceivable to reduce the area of the capacitor electrode 3 to increase the degree of integration. However, in a MOS capacitor having such a structure, when the area of the capacitor electrode 3 is reduced, the amount of charge stored in the capacitor decreases, and there is a problem that a margin against noise and the like cannot be secured.

耐圧や膜質(ピンホール等)の点で問題があり、

つた。 For this reason, it is necessary to reduce the thickness of the insulating film that makes up the MOS capacitor, and to use a Si 3 N 4 film with a high dielectric constant instead of the SiO 2 film that is conventionally used as the insulating film that makes up the MOS capacitor. It is known to use. However, MOS capacitors with this structure have problems with the withstand voltage and film quality (pinholes, etc.) of the insulating film.
There was a limit to reducing the area of the capacitor electrode.

積化にとつて大きな問題となつていた。 Furthermore, as another method for reducing the area of a MOS capacitor while maintaining a predetermined capacity, a concave MOS capacitor (or V-type MOS capacitor) described below is known. That is, as shown in FIG. 2, this capacitor has a structure in which a V-shaped recess 4 is formed in a semiconductor substrate 1, and a capacitor electrode 3' is provided in this recess 4 with an insulating film 2' interposed therebetween. In such a concave capacitor, by changing the depth and shape of the concave portion 4, the effective area of the capacitor electrode 3' can be arbitrarily selected, and the withstand voltage of the insulating film,
The film quality can also be improved. However, the concave
In a MOS capacitor, the self-alignment between the recess 4 and the capacitor electrode 3' is difficult, and it is necessary to provide an allowance (A) on both sides of the recess 4 in consideration of mask misalignment, which hinders the miniaturization of the MOS capacitor. This has become a major problem in increasing the integration density of MOS dynamic RAM.

After embedding the electrode material within the groove, the capacitor electrode is self-aligned within the groove by etching until the electrode material on the area excluding the groove is removed, leaving the electrode material within the groove.

Moreover, since the formed MOS capacitor has a structure in which the capacitor electrode is embedded in the groove with an insulating film in between,
Although the planar area occupied is reduced, the capacity can be increased.

A thick oxide film can be formed on the surface of each capacitor electrode. the result,

置を製造できる。 Furthermore, in the step of extending the gate electrode from the thin oxide film on the surface of the substrate to the thick oxide film on the surface of the capacitor electrode by forming the capacitor electrode in the groove in a self-aligned manner,
The channel length of the gate electrode (corresponding to the portion on the thin oxide film on the surface of the substrate) varies from the design dimension depending on the positional state of the capacitor electrode.
In particular, it is possible to avoid the channel length becoming shorter than the design dimension. As a result, it is no longer necessary to take a margin for adjusting the channel length to the designed dimension when forming the gate electrode, so the area occupied by the gate electrode in the memory cell can be reduced, and a highly integrated semiconductor device can be manufactured.
