The invention provides a dynamic random access memory (DRAM) with an electrostatic discharge (ESD) region. The upper portion of the ESD plug is metal, and the lower portion of the ESD plug is polysilicon. This structure may improve the mechanical strength of the ESD region and enhance thermal conductivity from electrostatic discharging. In addition, the contact area between the ESD plugs and the substrate can be reduced without increasing aspect ratio of the ESD plugs. The described structure is completed by a low critical dimension controlled patterned photoresist, such that the processes and equipments are substantially maintained without changing by a wide margin.

Dynamic random access memory with an electrostatic discharge structure and method for manufacturing the same

A method for fabricating the memory structure includes: providing a substrate having a pad, forming an opening in the pad, forming a first spacer on a sidewall of the opening, filling the opening with a sacrificial layer, removing the first spacer and exposing a portion of the substrate, removing the exposed substrate to define a first trench and a second trench, removing the sacrificial layer to expose a surface of the substrate to function as a channel region, forming a first dielectric layer on a surface of the first trench, a surface of the second trench and a surface of the channel region, filling the first trench and the second trench with a first conductive layer, forming a second dielectric layer on a surface of the first conductive layer and the surface of the channel region, filling the opening with a second conductive layer, and removing the pad.
