Abstract
A structure and process for fabricating embedded vertical DRAM cells includes fabricating vertical MOSFET DRAM cells with silicided polysilicon layers in the array regions, the landing pad and/or interconnect structures, the support source and drain regions and/or the gate stack. The process eliminates the need for a M metallization layer.
