Provided is a semiconductor device including a substrate, multiple first gate structures, and a protective structure. The substrate includes a first region and a second region. The first gate structures are disposed on the substrate in the first region. The protective structure conformally covers a sidewall of one of the first gate structures adjacent to the second region. The protective structure includes a lower portion and an upper portion disposed on the lower portion. The lower portion and the upper portion have different dielectric materials. A method of forming a semiconductor device is also provided.

Semiconductor device and method of forming the same

Provided is a manufacturing method of a memory device, including: forming a stacked layer on a substrate; patterning the stacked layer to form a plurality of openings in the stacked layer; forming a spacer on a sidewall of the openings; performing a first etching process by using the spacer as a mask to form a plurality of stack structures, wherein the spacer is embedded in the stack structures, such that a width of an upper portion of the stack structures is less than a width of a lower portion thereof; forming a dielectric layer on the stack structures and the spacer; and respectively forming a plurality of contact plugs on the substrate between the stack structures.

Manufacturing method of memory device

A method for manufacturing a memory device is provided. The method includes the following steps: providing a substrate; forming a plurality of first gate structures; forming a lining layer on the substrate; forming a spacer layer on the lining layer; forming a stop layer on the spacer layer; forming a first sacrificial layer on the stop layer; removing a portion of the first sacrificial layer to expose the stop layer on the first gate structures, and to expose the stop layer at the bottoms of the trenches; removing the stop layer at the bottoms of the trenches to expose the spacer layer; removing the remaining first sacrificial layer; forming a second sacrificial layer on the substrate; and removing the second sacrificial layer, and removing the spacer layer and the lining layer at the bottoms of the plurality of trenches to expose the substrate.

Method for manufacturing memory device

Provided is a memory device including a substrate, a plurality of stack structures, a spacer, a dielectric layer, and a plurality of contact plugs. The stack structures are disposed on the substrate. The spacer is embedded in the stack structures, so that a width of an upper portion of the stack structures is less than a width of a lower portion thereof. The dielectric layer conformally covers the stack structures and the spacer. The contact plugs are respectively disposed on the substrate between the stack structures.

Memory device and manufacturing method thereof

A non-volatile memory device and its manufacturing method are provided. The method includes the following steps. A plurality of isolation structures are formed in a substrate. A first polycrystalline silicon layer is formed in the substrate and between two adjacent isolation structures. A first implantation process is performed to implant a first dopant into the first polycrystalline silicon layer and the isolation structures. A portion of each of the isolation structures is partially removed, and the remaining portion of each of the isolation structures has a substantially flat top surface. An annealing process is performed after partially removing the isolation structures to uniformly diffuse the first dopant in the first polycrystalline silicon layer. A dielectric layer is formed on the first polycrystalline silicon layer, and a second polycrystalline silicon layer is formed on the dielectric layer.
