Abstract

The invention discloses a memory device and a manufacturing method of the memory device. The manufacturing method includes steps below. A plurality of stack structures including a tunneling dielectric layer and a floating gate are formed on a substrate. A liner material layer including a nitride liner layer is formed on the substrate. A top surface of the nitride liner layer is lower than a top surface of the floating gate and is higher than a top surface of the tunneling dielectric layer. An isolation material layer covering the liner material layer is formed on the substrate. The isolation material layer is oxidized, and a portion of the isolation material layer is removed to form an isolation structure. An inter-gate dielectric layer covering the stack structures and the isolation structure is formed on the substrate. A control gate covering the inter-gate dielectric layer is formed on the substrate.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a semiconductor element and its manufacturing method, and in particular to a memory element and its manufacturing method. Background technique [0002] A typical memory element is generally designed to have a structure of a plurality of memory cells, wherein each memory cell includes a tunnel dielectric layer, a floating gate, an inter-gate dielectric layer and a control gate sequentially disposed on the substrate, In addition, an isolation structure is provided between adjacent memory cells. In the manufacturing process of the isolation structure, a flowable isolation material layer is usually formed first, and then an oxidation process and an etching process are performed on the isolation material layer. The above-mentioned oxidation manufacturing process can make the formed isolation structure include a higher proportion of oxygen atoms to have a good isolation effect; however, the oxygen introduced in the oxidation...
