Summary:The surfaces of wordline stacks and intermediate areas of a main substrate surface are covered with an oxynitride liner. Either sidewall spacers of BPSG are formed or a further liner of nitride is deposited and spacers of oxide are formed. These spacers are used in a peripheral area of addressing circuitry to implant doped source/drain regions. The oxynitride reduces the stress between the nitride and the semiconductor material and prevents charge carriers from penetrating out of a memory layer of nitride into the liner.
