The present invention provides a method for the formation of contact plugs of an embedded memory. The method first forms a plurality of MOS transistors on a defined memory array region and periphery circuit region of the semiconductor wafer. Then, a first dielectric layer is formed on the memory array region, and plurality of landing pads is formed in the first dielectric layer. Next, both a stop layer and a second dielectric layer are formed, respectively, on the surface of semiconductor wafer. A PEP process is then used to form a plurality of contact plug holes in the second dielectric layer in both the memory array region and the periphery circuit region. Finally, a conductive layer is filled into each hole to form in-situ each contact plug in both the memory array region and the periphery circuit region.
