ABSTRACT:
A method of manufacturing buried contact window in SRAM includes implanting oxygen ions into a substrate inside a buried contact window region adjacent to the location for forming a source/drain region, and then carrying out oxidative reaction in the implanted region to form an silicon oxide layer using the heat generated by a subsequent polysilicon deposition process or a laser beam. The silicon oxide layer protects the substrate by acting as a buffer, thus preventing the substrate from being over-etched to form a deep trench. Consequently, contact resistance between the buried contact window and the source/drain region is lowered, and leakage current at the junction is prevented.
