Method for forming a silicide in a dynamic random access memory device

摘要

A method for fabricating a DRAM with a silicide layer formed on a gate of a MOS transistor in a memory region is provided. The method not only forms a first silicide layer on a first MOS transistor at the periphery region as a conventional structure but also forms a second silicide layer on a gate of a second MOS transistor, at the memory region. The second silicide layer is formed on a polysilicon layer before the polysilicon is patterned to form a gate so that the gate includes the second silicide layer on it top. An insulating layer is also formed over the substrate before the polysilicon is patterned so that the insulating layer serve as a mask when an interchangeable source/drain region of the second MOS transistor is formed.
