A power semiconductor includes a semiconductor substrate, a metal oxide semiconductor layer, a N-type buffer layer and a P-type injection layer. The semiconductor substrate has a first surface and a second surface. The metal oxide semiconductor layer is formed on the first surface for defining a N-type drift layer of the semiconductor substrate. The N-type buffer layer is formed on the second surface through ion implanting, and the P-type injection layer is formed on the N-type buffer layer through ion implanting. By utilizing the semiconductor substrate having drift layer and forming the N-type buffer layer and the P-type injection layer on the second surface of the semiconductor substrate through ion implanting, the ion concentration is adjustable. As a result, the electron hole injection efficiency and the width of depletion region are easily adjusted, the fabricating processes are simplified, and the fabricating time and cost are reduced.

Embodiments of the present invention relate to a method for preventing gate oxide thinning in a recess LOCOS process. The plurality of trenches are separated by a patterned pad oxide and a patterned silicon nitride layer The patterned silicon nitride layer and the patterned pad oxide layer are removed to expose a surface of the substrate as an active area of the semiconductor device. An ion drive-in to the active area on the substrate is performed by directing a flow of oxygen and nitrogen toward the substrate at a predetermined temperature and with a sufficient amount of oxygen to at least substantially prevent silicon nitride from forming on the field oxide regions. The method further comprises forming a sacrificial oxide layer on the active area, removing the sacrificial oxide layer to expose the active area, and forming a gate oxide layer on the active area.

A method of contact ion implantation is disclosed. Only one mask and a dosage-enhanced implantation is utilized to form different types of doped contact regions. A blanket ion implantation is first carried out, and all the contact regions of first and second type are formed with the first conductive type impurities. Then a mask is defined to cover the first type contact regions and expose the second type regions. A second ion implantation is now carried out to implant impurity ions of second conductive type into the second type contact regions. The dosage of these second conductive type ions is determined so that, the second type contact regions are convert from the first conductive type into section conductive type.

The present invention provides a new method for making a load resistor in a semiconductor chip. According to the new method, a linear-shaped doped polysilicon layer is formed onto the surface of the semiconductor chip that comprises a Si substrate and an NSG layer. This layer functions as a conductive path. A slot is formed in this layer by removing a section from the conductive path. This slot reaches down to the NSG layer effectively cutting off the polysilicon layer. Then, a rugged polysilicon layer is evenly deposited onto the surface of the slot for connection of the conductive path. The polysilicon layer over the slot and the doped polysilicon layer defines the load resistor. The result is a high resistance value with usage of only a small space.

A method of damage-free doping for forming a dynamic random access memory cell is disclosed herein. A phosphoric silicate glass is deposited as a diffusion source. The phosphorous ions of phosphoric silicate glass can be diffused into a substrate to form the source/drain regions by a high temperature during a thermal annealing process.

The thermal oxide layer can prevent ions from diffusing into the substrate during the subsequent thermal treatment process. Therefore, the present invention can reduce the damage of a dynamic random access memory.
