Abstract:
A method of controlling a threshold voltage is provided. The method of controlling a threshold voltage includes performing a film-thickness measuring step to measure the thickness of a film layer on a wafer to obtain a film-thickness value. Then, at least one parameter is decided, selected, or generated according to the film-thickness value. Next, an ion implantation process is performed on the wafer, wherein the ion implantation process is executed according to the parameter to form a threshold voltage adjustment region in the wafer below the film layer.

Abstract:
A method of forming an isolation structure and a through silicon via includes the following steps. First, at least a first trench and at least a second trench are formed in the substrate by a single etch step. Then, an insulating layer is formed to simultaneously fill up the first trench and cover a sidewall and a bottom of the second trench. After that, a conductive layer is formed to fill in the second trench. Subsequently, the insulating layer and the conductive layer on a front side of the substrate are removed. Later, a back side of the substrate is thinned to expose the conductive layer in the second trench. The insulating layer in the first trench serves as an insulating filling, and the insulating layer on the sidewall of the second trench serves as a liner of the through silicon via.
