<p>A method of fabricating a semiconductor memory structure and a semiconductor memory structure having a plurality of memory cells (32,34,36), adjacent cells being isolated. The method comprises the steps of developing a relatively thick oxide layer (12) on a silicon substrate (10), etching holes through the oxide layer and implanting impurities in the substrate (10) through said holes to define capacitor regions (16). A dielectric layer (20) is formed over the implants and then a capacitor plate (22) is added over the dielectric layer.
<??>The spacing between cells is determined by the etching process, and the method has the advantage that one mask is used for several purposes including defining active transistor areas and the first polysilicon layer. Additional advantages are disclosed including a higher body effect in the isolation transistors, use of a nitride dielectric layer, and a higher, stable threshold voltage in the isolation transistors. Also, modification of the improved process for fabrication of P-channel and N-channel devices can be made.</p> |
