Abstract
A self-aligned contact pad formation technology for giga-bit DRAMs has been developed using anisotropical selective epitaxial silicon grown at 700°C. Interfacial contact resistance was reduced to approximately one-fifth of that of a conventional poly-Si plugged contact. The smallest memory cell size of 0.24 μm2 with a 0.20 μm design rule can be achieved
