Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method and a structure of a three-dimensional memory. An ONOP process is changed into an AONOP process; equivalently, after a conductive channel in an array storage region is etched, aluminum oxide, silicon dioxide, silicon nitride, silicon dioxide and a polysilicon stacked layer are prepared through an atomic layer deposition mode separately; therefore, afterthe pseudo gate is removed by a wet process, atomic layer deposition of aluminum oxide is not needed; and consequently, the tungsten metal gate thickness in the three-dimensional memory is increased,the metal gate resistance is lowered, and the selection ratio difficulty of tungsten contact hole etching in a stage region is lowered.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor devices and their manufacture, in particular to a preparation method and structure of a three-dimensional memory. Background technique [0002] With the continuous improvement of market demand for memory capacity, the number of memory cells that can be provided per unit area by traditional memory based on planar or two-dimensional structures is approaching the limit, which cannot further meet the market demand for larger capacity memory. Just like several bungalows built on a limited plane, these bungalows are neatly arranged, but as the demand continues to increase, the number of bungalows continues to blow out, but in the end this limited plane can only accommodate a certain number of bungalows. Cannot continue to increase. Planar memory is approaching its practical expansion limit, which brings severe challenges to the semiconductor memory industry. [0003] In order to solve the above difficulti...
