Abstract
A semiconductor memory device manufacturing method includes: sequentially forming a lower oxide layer, a word line metal layer and an upper oxide layer over at least a portion of a memory cell; forming a through hole passing through the upper oxide layer, the word line metal layer and the lower oxide layer to expose the portion of the memory cell; forming a sacrificial pillar into the through hole; removing the upper oxide layer to expose a top portion of the sacrificial pillar; sequentially forming a first oxide spacer sidewall, a nitride spacer sidewall and a second oxide spacer sidewall on a sidewall of the top portion of the sacrificial pillar; removing the nitride spacer sidewall to form a void gap; etching the word line metal layer through the void gap to form separate word lines.
