Description of the invention (8) The process is to define the position of PM0S on the peripheral circuit area 64, and then first engraved the nitrogen surrounding the gate electrode 9 6 above the N-type well 7 2 of the peripheral circuit area 64. A silicon layer 98 was formed to form a sidewall 100, and then an ion implantation process was performed to form a source 110 and a drain 104 of the PM0S transistor in the N-type well 72, and finally the photoresist layer 9 3 was removed. . After forming the source 102 and the drain 104 of each MOS transistor on the peripheral circuit region 64, a metal layer (not shown) made of cobalt (co) is formed on the surface of the semiconductor wafer 60, In addition, the metal layer covers the surfaces of the source electrodes 102, the drain electrodes 104, and the question electrodes 96 and 97 on the peripheral circuit area 64. Subsequently, a first rapid thermal processing (RTP) process is performed in a temperature range of 400 ° C to 600 ° C and a heating time of 10 to 50 seconds, so that each source electrode on the peripheral circuit area 64 is 10 2. A self-aligned silicide layer 106 is formed on the surface of the drain electrode 104 and the gate electrodes 96 and 97. A wet etching is then performed to remove the unreacted metal layer on the surface of the semiconductor wafer 60. Finally, a second rapid thermal processing (RTP) process is performed in a temperature range of 60 ° C to 80 ° C and a heating time of 〇0 ~ 50 seconds to align the self-alignment in the silicide layer 106. Co2Si and CoS i react to CoS i 2 with lower resistance, as shown in FIG. 18. The cobalt (Co) metal layer may be replaced with a metal layer such as titanium (Ti), nickel (Ni), or molybdenum (Mo). Since the method for making a MOS transistor of an embedded memory according to the present invention is to first etch the doped polycrystalline silicon layer in the memory array region to about half the original thickness, it can not affect the problem of boron penetration in the peripheral circuit region Considering that the gate thickness in the memory array area can be greatly reduced, so it can be reduced.
