A method of forming a triple N well is described. A first pattern mask layer is formed on a substrate. A first ion implantation step is performed to form an annular longitudinal deep N well in the substrate. A second ion implantation step is performed to form an annular longitudinal shallow N well in the substrate. The annular longitudinal shallow N well lies above the annular longitudinal deep N well. The first mask layer is removed. A second patterned mask layer is formed on the substrate. A third ion implantation step is performed to form a transversal deep N well surrounded by the annular longitudinal deep N well. The transversal deep N well is connected with the annular longitudinal deep N well. Thus a triple N well is formed. A fourth ion implantation step is performed to form a cell well surrounded by the annular longitudinal deep N well. The cell well lies above the transversal deep N well. The second mask layer is removed.

Method of forming triple N well utilizing phosphorus and boron ion implantations

A self-aligned process for forming a silicide layer over word lines in DRAM and a silicide layer over transistors in a logic device region. A substrate that includes a memory cell region and a logic circuit region is provided. A first transistor and a second transistor are formed over the substrate. The first transistor is formed in the logic circuit region and includes a first gate conductive layer and a first source/drain region. The second transistor is formed in the memory cell region and includes a second gate conductive layer and a second source/drain region. A blocking layer is formed over both the first transistor and the second transistor. A portion of the blocking layer is removed to expose the first gate conductive layer, the first source/drain region and the second gate conductive layer. The remaining blocking layer still covers the second source/drain region. A metal silicide layer is formed over the first gate conductive layer, the first source/drain region and the second gate conductive layer.
