ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a semiconductor device and a method for providing such a semiconductor device which allows a field oxide etch while minimizing the damage to the silicon. This method is particularly useful for smaller semiconductor devices, for example, such as a semiconductor device utilizing core source spacing less than 0.4 microns. A method according to the present invention for providing a semiconductor device comprises the steps of depositing a first spacer oxide layer over a core area and a peripheral area of a semiconductor device; etching the first spacer oxide layer at the source side of core cell area; depositing a second spacer oxide layer over the core area and the peripheral area, and etching the first and second spacer oxide layers over the peripheral area only.
