ABSTRACT:
Manufacture of an integrated circuit flash memory devices includes covering a semiconductor substrate with a tunnel oxide layer, a floating gate layer, an intergate dielectric layer, a control gate layer, a silicon dioxide dielectric layer over a silicon nitride layer. Then those layers over the tunnel oxide are patterned into flash memory gate electrode by etching through a source/drain mask followed by ion implanting source/drain dopant ions through the openings formed by etching. Sidewall spacers are formed followed by a dielectric layer through which source line openings are etched down to the source/drain regions. Plug openings are made down to the source/drain regions. An intermetal dielectric layer is deposited comprising PEOX/SOG/PEOX over the device. Then via openings are made over the drain plugs by etching the intermetal dielectric layer through a via mask. Next metal is deposited over the intermetal dielectric layer into the via openings extending down into contact with the drain plugs.
