Abstract
A method of fabricating a mask read only memory. Embedded bit line are formed in a substrate. A gate dielectric layer and a word line are formed on the substrate. The word line is perpendicular to the bit lines. The substrate under the word line and between each pair of the bit lines is referred as a memory unit. A first dielectric layer is formed to cover the substrate. A plurality of coding windows is formed in the first dielectric layer over the memory units. Ions are implanted into the memory cells exposed by the coding windows, and a second dielectric layer is formed to fill the coding windows.
