    摘要: A fuse structure in an integrated circuit chip is described that includes an insulated semiconductor substrate; a fuse bank integral to the insulated semiconductor substrate consisting of a plurality of parallel co-planar fuse links; and voids interspersed between each pair of the fuse links, the voids extending beyond a plane defined by the co-planar fuse links. The voids surrounding the spot to be hit by a laser beam during fuse blow operation act as a crack stop to prevent damage to adjacent circuit elements or other fuse links present. By suitably shaping and positioning the voids, a tighter pitch between fuses may be obtained.

    摘要: A memory cell formed in a semiconductor body includes a vertical trench (14) with a polysilicon fill (22) as a storage capacitor and a field effect transistor having a source (43) formed in the sidewall of the trench, a drain (42) formed in the semiconductor body (10) and having a surface common with a top surface of the semiconductor body, and having a channel region that includes both vertical and horizontal portions and a polysilicon gate (30) that is in an upper portion of the trench. A process for fabrication provides an insulating oxide layer (24A) at the top of the polysilicon fill portion (22) that serves as the storage node and a dielectric layer (28) that was formed as part of the gate dielectric of the transistor.

    摘要: A dynamic random access memory (DRAM) formed in a semiconductor body has individual pairs of memory cells that are isolated from one another by a vertical electrical isolation trench and are isolated from support circuitry. The isolation trench has sidewalls and upper and lower portions, and encircles an area of the semiconductor body which contains the memory cells. This electrically isolates pairs of memory cells from each other and from the support circuitry contained within the semiconductor body but not located within the encircled area. The lower portion of the isolation trench is filled with an electrically conductive material that has sidewall portions thereof which are at least partly separated from the sidewalls of the lower portion of the trench by a first electrical insulator, and that has a lower portion that is in electrical contact with the semiconductor body. The upper portion of the isolation trench is filled with a second electrical insulator.

    摘要: A process for forming a buried strap self-aligned to a deep storage trench. Spacers are formed on walls of a recess over a filled deep trench capacitor and a substrate. A plug is formed in a region between the spacers. Photoresist is deposited over the spacers, the plug, and material surrounding the spacers of the plug. The photoresist is patterned, thereby exposing portions of the plug, the spacers, and the surrounding material. The spacers in the surrounding material not covered by the photoresist are selectively etched, leaving a remaining portion of the spacers. The substrate and the portion of the filled deep trench exposed by the spacer removal are selectively etched. An isolation region is formed in a space created by etching of the spacers, surrounding material, substrate, and filled deep trench.
