Abstract
Disclosed is a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device. A floating gate is formed and a nitrification process is then implemented. With the disclosed process, it is possible to improve the roughness of the top surface of the floating gate electrode. Furthermore, a nitrification process and a dielectric film formation process are implemented in-situ, which simplifies the manufacturing process.
