Abstract

A distance between two electrodes of a CCD device is reduced to an extremely small value, thereby increasing the memory density, of the CCD device. In the process of the present invention, upon formation of a first electrode, an insulating layer is formed on the entire top surface of the semiconductor wafer. The material of another electrode is then placed on the entire top surface of the wafer. These layers are then selectively removed to form a CCD structure.
