Abstract:
To provide a semiconductor device capable of having improved adhesion between a plating film and a wiring layer. A method of manufacturing the semiconductor device includes a step of forming a wiring layer having a surface covered with an oxide film, a step of removing a portion of the oxide film by dry etching to form, in the oxide film, a first opening f exposing a portion of the wiring layer, a step of forming a passivation film covering the wiring layer, is provided with a second opening communicated with the first opening, and is made of an insulating resin material, and a step of growing a plating film on the wiring layer exposed from the first and second openings.
Abstract:
To enhance the write speed of a nonvolatile memory. A charge injection/emission part of a nonvolatile memory cell includes an active region having an upper face, a side wall, and a shoulder part connecting the upper face and the side wall, a conductor film covering the upper face and the shoulder part of the active region, and a capacitance insulating film provided between the conductor film and the active region. Furthermore, the active region has a protrusion part constituted of a first concave part with respect to the upper face and a second concave part with respect to the side wall, in the shoulder part.
Abstract:
To improve the reliability of a semiconductor device.The semiconductor device includes a plurality of wiring layers formed on a semiconductor substrate, a pad formed on an uppermost wiring layer of the plurality of wiring layers, a surface protection film which includes an opening on the pad and is made of an inorganic insulating film, a rewiring formed on the surface protection film; a pad electrode formed on the rewiring, and a wire connected to the pad electrode. The rewiring includes a pad electrode mounting portion on which the pad electrode is mounted, a connection portion which is connected to the pad, and an extended wiring portion which couples the pad electrode mounting portion and the connection portion, and the pad electrode mounting portion has a rectangular shape when seen in a plan view.
Abstract:
A via hole is accurately formed in an interlayer insulating film over a metal wiring. Of emission spectra of plasma to be used for dry etching of the interlayer insulating film, the emission intensities of at least CO, CN, and AlF are monitored such that an end point of the dry etching of the interlayer insulating film is detected based on the emission intensities thereof.
