摘要
A new 1Gb NAND flash technology with high-aspect-ratio floating gate, tungsten bit line and poly-Si source line has been developed. It is fabricated using 0.15 mum photolithography, shallow trench isolation (STI), highly selective gate etching, damascene and chemical-mechanical polishing (CMP) processes. Since thick poly-Si is deposited and its sidewall has an inclined profile by anisotropic etching, narrow floating gate space (similar to 80 nm) under the design rule and a high coupling ratio (similar to 0.75) are obtained. To interconnect the NAND cell array, the poly-Si source is connected to every string as a common line and the tungsten bit line is damascened over the entire string. These double-layers interconnection leads to simple process and reduced steps. Thus, for the first time, a prototype 1Gb NAND flash memory with an extremely small cell size of 0.11 mum(2) has been achieved.
