Method of manufacturing a semiconductor memory device having a capacitor with improved dielectric layer

摘要

In the manufacture of a semiconductor memory device having a capacitor formed by arranging a dielectric film including two layers of a silicon oxide film and a silicon nitride film between two electrode films, a thin dielectric film is formed by forming the silicon nitride film on a silicon conductive film by thermally nitriding said silicon conductive film using NO gas, then laminating a silicon oxide film on said silicon nitride film by a CVD method. The erasing/writing speed of semiconductor memory devices, in particular of flash memories or the like, is improved.
