Abstract:
A semiconductor device may include a bit line structure, a first spacer, and a second spacer on a substrate. The bit line structure may include a conductive structure and an insulation structure stacked in a vertical direction substantially perpendicular to an upper surface of the substrate. The first spacer and the second spacer may be stacked in a horizontal direction on a sidewall of the bit line structure. The horizontal direction may be substantially parallel to the upper surface of the substrate. The conductive structure may include a nitrogen-containing conductive portion at a lateral portion thereof. The first spacer may contact the nitrogen-containing conductive portion.

A semiconductor device manufacturing method includes loading a semiconductor substrate into a chamber, the semiconductor substrate including a silicon oxide film, depositing a seed layer on the silicon oxide film by supplying a first silicon source material, supplying a purge gas on the seed layer, depositing a protective layer on the seed layer by repeating a first cycle, the first cycle including supplying a base source material layer and subsequently supplying the first silicon source material, and depositing a silicon nitride film on the protective layer by repeating a second cycle, the second cycle including supplying a second silicon source material and subsequently supplying a nitrogen source material.
Abstract:
A DRAM device includes an isolation region defining source and drain regions in a substrate, a first bit line structure connected to the source region, a second bit line structure disposed on the isolation region, an inner spacer vertically extending on a first sidewall of the first bit line structure, an air gap is between the inner spacer and an outer spacer, a storage contact between the first and second bit line structures and connected to the drain region, a landing pad structure vertically on the storage contact, and a storage structure vertically on the landing pad structure. The sealing layer seals a top of the first air gap. The sealing layer includes a first sealing layer on a first sidewall of a pad isolation trench, and a second sealing layer on a second sidewall of the pad isolation trench and separated from the first sealing layer.

Abstract:
Semiconductor devices, and methods of fabricating the same, include a metal-containing layer on a semiconductor layer, and a barrier-lowering portion between the metal-containing layer and the semiconductor layer. The barrier-lowering portion lowers a Schottky barrier height between the metal-containing layer and the semiconductor layer below a Schottky barrier height between a metal silicide layer and the semiconductor layer.
