Abstract

The invention provides a manufacturing method of a semiconductor device. The manufacturing method comprises the steps of providing a semiconductor substrate, forming multiple floating gates arranged at intervals on the semiconductor substrate and a hard mask layer on the floating gates; forming spacers on the floating gates and the side wall of the hard mask layer, wherein the material of the spacers comprises amorphous carbon; forming a shallow trench isolation structure in the semiconductor substrate between adjacent floating gates; and removing the hard mask layer and the spacers to expose the floating gates. According to the manufacturing method, the floating gates and the side wall of a tunneling oxide layer can be protected by adopting amorphous carbon, so that corrosion damage to the floating gates and the side wall of the tunneling oxide layer in the etching process can be avoided; in addition, damage to oxide also can be avoided in the ashing removal method of amorphous carbon; and therefore, by adoption of the manufacturing method, the performance and the reliability of the device can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device. Background technique [0002] In the current semiconductor industry, integrated circuit products can be mainly divided into three types: logic, memory and analog circuits, among which memory devices account for a considerable proportion of integrated circuit products. Among storage devices, the development of flash memory (flash memory for short) is particularly rapid in recent years. Its main feature is that it can keep stored information for a long time without power on, and has many advantages such as high integration, fast access speed, easy erasure and rewriting, etc. The field has been widely used. [0003] As the integration density of integrated circuits continues to increase, flash cells are rapidly scaled down. According to the reduction of the dimension of NAND flash memory, it is necessary to increase the ar...
