耐圧の劣化や信頼性の低下を招く。FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view showing the process of forming a tunnel region of a conventional EEPROM. In the figure, 1 is a semiconductor substrate, 2 is an impurity diffusion layer having a conductivity type opposite to that of the substrate 1, and 3 is a 5i02.
5 is a photoresist, 6 is polycrystalline silicon, and 7 is a tunnel insulating film. In the conventional method, an element isolation region is first formed, then an impurity diffusion layer 2 is formed at a desired location on the substrate 1, and its surface is covered with SiO□. This stage is shown in Figure 3-1. Next, a photoresist 5 is applied, and openings are formed in the photoresist using photolithography, and then the base 5i023 is etched using the openings of the photoresist 5 using a hydrofluoric acid solution. This state is 3
-Figure 2. Next, as shown in Figure 3-3, the photoresist 5 is removed and appropriate surface cleaning is performed. 3-4 more
As shown in the figure, after forming the tunnel insulating film 7, polycrystalline silicon 6 is deposited by LPCVD or the like. The tunnel region is formed in this way, and the film thickness of the photoresist 5 is usually around 1 μm. For this reason,
For example, even if an opening with a diameter of 0.5 μm is formed using photoresist, its aspect ratio will be 2. Therefore, it is extremely difficult for a hydrofluoric acid solution to penetrate into a hole having a diameter of 0.5 μm due to the influence of surface tension. On the other hand, 5i
It is also possible to apply plasma etching technology to the etching of 023, but in this case, the insulation of the tunnel insulating film formed afterwards would be damaged due to plasma damage to the surfaces of the semiconductor substrate 1 and the impurity diffusion layer 2. This leads to deterioration of withstand voltage and reliability.

There were problems such as it became extremely difficult to open holes in the area, and submicron holes could not be opened. Further, since the submicron tunnel region cannot be opened, the memory cell cannot be proportionally reduced, and a large-capacity EEFROM cannot be obtained.

Needless to say, the element isolation region is formed using a method such as ion of 5 silicon. Next, in the conventional method, a photoresist was applied directly onto this 5i023, and an opening pattern was formed in the photoresist using a general photolithography technique, but in the present invention, a hole pattern was formed on the photoresist. After that, SL and N44 are further deposited by, for example, LPCVD method, and Si3N4/5i02
A two-layer film is formed. This state is shown in Figure 1-2. Next, as shown in FIG. 1-3, a desired opening pattern is formed in the photoresist 5 by photolithography, and the underlying St, N, and 4 layers are etched using the photoresist 5 as a mask. At this time, 513N4 is etched by a dry process using, for example, CF4+O□ plasma.
