Semiconductor device with non-deposited barrier layer

摘要

A semiconductor device comprises a semiconductor substrate of a first conductivity type, a first conductive layer formed in the semiconductor substrate using a dopant, and being of a second conductivity type, a silicon-rich nitride film formed on the first conductive layer, and a second conductive layer formed on the silicon-rich nitride film, wherein the silicon-rich nitride film inhibits outdiffusion of dopant from the first conductive layer into the second conductive layer, and blocks interdiffusion between the second conductive layer and the first conductive layer.
