Abstract

A manufacturing method for a semiconductor storage device with a floating gate includes a first step for depositing a first thermally-oxidized film (14) on a poly-silicon film (12) that has been etched to a desired depth so as to have a tapered etched end by using a silicon nitride film (13) having an opening as a mask, a step for depositing a first NSG film side wall spacer (115) that covers the tapered portion on an opening side wall of the silicon nitride film (13) and adding heat treatment thereto, a step for forming a second NSG film side wall spacer (15) on the inner side of the first NSG film side wall spacer 115, a step for forming a poly-silicon plug (18), then depositing a second thermally-oxidized film (19) on the poly-silicon plug (18), a step for removing the silicon nitride film (13), then etching the poly-silicon film (12), and a step for removing the first NSG film side wall spacer (115).
