摘要:
To completely isolate an island of silicon, a trench is cut into an epitaxial layer to provide access to a differently doped buried layer. While suspending the portion of the epitaxial layer surrounded by the trench by means of an oxide bridge, the underlying region of the buried layer is etched away to form a cavity under the active area. This cavity, as well as the surrounding trench, is then filled with a suitable insulating material to isolate the active island from the substrate.

@ An insulation layer (43) is selectively formed by exposing the surface of a workpiece (41) to an atmosphere comprising a mixture of a halogen-based gas and a raw gas containing a compoundable element chemically bondable with an element of a material constituting surface layer of the workpiece (41) to form an insulating compound. The surface layer of the workpiece (41) is formed of a non-insulating material, such as a metallic material or a semiconductor material. Light rays are directly irradiated on the selected region or regions of the surface of the workpiece (41) through the atmosphere of the gaseous mixture, thereby dissociating the halogen-based gas. As a result, a layer (43) comprising the insulating compound is formed on the selected region of the surface of the workpiece (41) on which the light rays have been directly irradiated.
摘要:
A method is provided for forming semiconductor structures having dielectrically isolated silicon regions on one side of a silicon body. This is accomplished by forming in the silicon body a set of buried regions (30) and a set of surface regions (50) having characteristics which make them anodically etch slower than the remaining portion of the silicon body (10). These two sets of regions define portions (32, 52, 62) in the silicon body which are anodically etched to form porous silicon regions which are oxidized to form an isolation structure that isolates the silicon surface regions (50) from each other and the remaining portion (62) of the silicon body. Typically in a P-type silicon body the buried and surface regions (30, 50) are N-type regions formed through ion implantation. Using these N-type regions to control the exposure of the P-type material to the anodic etching solution and the formation of the porous silicon regions, a structure is obtained wherein surface monocrystalline silicon regions are isolated from the rest of the silicon body by a uniform layer of silicon dioxide (62) having a predetermined thickness.

摘要:
The invention provides a unique sub-micron dimensioned NPN type transistor and method of making the same wherein hundreds of such transistors may be fabricated on a single chip with each transistor comprising an active region surrounded by field oxide completely isolating it from the substrate and its effects on operation. Slots made in the substrate permit angle evaporation of etch-resist to protect the active region while it is disconnected from the substrate by etching therebeneath via the slots. Substrate oxidation supports the active regions while orthogonal slots are provided permitting access to opposed sides of the active regions for doping P+ which is driven in from one side only while N+ is introduced and driven in from both sides, thereby providing an N+ P+P, N+ emitter, base, collector transistor active region to which electrical connections are applied using conventional techniques, providing almost complete reduction of the parasitic capacitances and resistances because of the total oxide isolation of the active regions from the substrate.

摘要:
The present invention is related to a method for forming a buried dielectric layer underneath a semiconductor fin. The method involves forming fins in semiconductor substrate by forming trenches in the substrate, depositing insulation material in said trenches and partially removing said material from the trenches, where after a liner is produced on the sidewalls of the trenches and top layer of the insulating material is furthermore removed, so as to reveal a window at the sidewalls of a bottom regions of the fin(s). Through said window, the material of the fins is transformed into a dielectric material, while the rest of the fin is protected, to thereby form a buried dielectric layer. The method can further comprise steps to form hybrid bulk/SOI substrate or steps to form a floating gate memory device.

In one embodiment, there is provided a carrier comprising a top semiconductor layer having isolated positive electrode regions and isolated negative electrode regions separated by a frontside trench through the top semiconductor layer extending at least to an underlying insulating layer positioned between the top semiconductor layer and a bottom semiconductor layer. A dielectric layer covers the top exposed surfaces of the carrier. Backside trenches through the bottom semiconductor layer extending at least to the insulating layer form isolated backside regions corresponding to the frontside positive and negative electrode regions. Backside contacts positioned on the bottom semiconductor layer and coupled to the positive and negative electrode regions allow for the electric charging of the frontside electrode regions.
摘要:
A process for digging deep trenches in a body of semiconductor material envisages: forming a mask (3) having at least one opening (5), above a surface (2a) of a semiconductor body (2); forming a passivating layer (6, 6') conformally on the mask (3) and on the semiconductor body (2) within the opening (5); executing a directional etch so as to first remove the passivating layer (6, 6') at least from on top of the semiconductor body (2) and then etch the semiconductor body (2) through the opening (5). The steps of forming a passivating layer (6, 6') and executing a directional etch are carried out repeatedly in sequence so as to form a trench (10) through the opening (5). In a step of the process, moreover, a tapered portion (10") of the trench (10) is formed, which has a transverse dimension (W") decreasing as a distance (D) from the surface (2a) of the semiconductor body (2) increases.
