Description
- The present invention is a divisional of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 12/165,145, filed on Jun. 30, 2008, which claims priority of Korean patent application number 2007-0104068, filed on Oct. 16, 2007, both of which are incorporated by reference in their entirety.
- The present invention relates to a semiconductor device and a method for fabricating the same. More particularly, the present invention relates to a semiconductor device that reduces a passing gate effect and a method for fabricating the same.
- As semiconductors become highly integrated, electric characteristics such as a threshold voltage and a refresh rate requires an increase when a channel dimension decreases. Thus, a recess gate structure is introduced to increase the channel length by selectively etching a substrate.

FIG. 1A illustrates a top view of a typical semiconductor device. -
FIG. 1B illustrates a cross-sectional view of the semiconductor device shown inFIG. 1A cut along a line X-X′. - Referring to
FIGS. 1A and 1B , asubstrate 11 where isolation region andactive region 13 are defined by aninsulation layer 12 is selectively etched to form arecess pattern 14. Agate insulation layer 15 is formed over therecess pattern 14.Polysilicon layer 16,tungsten layer 17, and gatehard mask layer 18 are formed over a resultant structure including therecess pattern 14. Then, a patterning process is performed thereon to form gate lines GL. Thus, a plurality of gate lines GL are formed simultaneously crossing the isolation region and theactive region 13. The gate lines GL crossing theactive region 13 is called a main gate and the gate lines GL crossing the isolation region is called a passing gate. - However, as semiconductor devices become highly integrated, a physical gap between the main gate and the passing gate decreases. Thus, a threshold of the main gate changes and a parasitic capacitance between the main gate and the passing gate increases due to a bias applied to the passing gate. That is, the passing gate effect occurs.
- Furthermore, a portion of the
isolation layer 12 is etched during an etch process for forming therecess pattern 14 in the aforementioned typical method. Generally, theisolation layer 12 is etched down to approximately ⅔ to approximately ½ of therecess pattern 14. The damage of theisolation layer 12 decreases the physical gap between the main gate and the passing gate (refer to ‘A’ area ofFIG. 1B ). Thus, the described passing effect becomes more intense. - Embodiments of the present invention relate to a semiconductor device reducing a passing gate effect and a method for fabricating the same. This invention increases a physical gap between a main gate and a passing gate to reduce the passing gate effect.
- In accordance with an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a semiconductor device including a substrate where an isolation region and a plurality of active regions are defined, an anti-interference layer formed over the substrate in the isolation region, and a gate line simultaneously crossing the active region and the anti-interference layer.
- In accordance with another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for fabricating a semiconductor device. The method includes forming an anti-interference pattern exposing a portion of a substrate in an active region over the substrate including an isolation region and an active region, forming a gate conductive layer over a resultant structure including the anti-interference pattern, forming a gate hard mask layer over the gate conductive layer, and selectively etching the gate hard mask layer, the gate conductive layer, and the anti-interference pattern to form a plurality of gate lines simultaneously crossing the isolation region and the active region.
