Abstract

The present invention discloses a method for manufacturing a flash memory device, including the steps of: forming gate electrode patterns on a semiconductor substrate on which a high voltage region and a low voltage region are defined; forming a first mask pattern for simultaneously exposing the high voltage region and the low voltage region, and forming junction regions in the high voltage region and the low voltage region at the same time by performing a first ion implant process; removing the first mask pattern for simultaneously exposing the high voltage region and the low voltage region, and forming spacers on each gate electrode pattern; forming a second mask pattern for simultaneously exposing the high voltage region and the low voltage region; and forming LDD regions in the junction region of the high voltage region and the junction region of the low voltage region at the same time by performing a second ion implant process.
