An MOS device has a stack and a passivation layer covering the stack. The stack
is formed by a first polysilicon region and by a second polysilicon region arranged
on top of one another and separated by an intermediate dielectric region. An electrical
connection region, formed by a column structure substantially free of steps, extends
through the passivation layer, the second polysilicon region and the intermediate
dielectric region, and terminates in contact with the first polysilicon region
so as to electrically contacting the first polysilicon region and the second polysilicon
region. Fabrication of the electrical connection region requires just one mask.
