    Abstract: A high aspect ratio silicon structure comprises a silicon substrate (110) having a surface (111), an electrically insulating layer (120) over portions of the silicon substrate, a hardmask (130) over the electrically insulating layer, and a deep silicon trench (140) formed in the substrate. The deep silicon trench comprises a floor (141) and sidewalls (142) extending away from the floor, and the sidewalls are atomically smooth. In an embodiment, the atomically smooth sidewalls are achieved by providing a substrate having the deep silicon trench formed therein, forming a layer of water over the substrate and within the deep silicon trench, and exposing the substrate to a hydrogen fluoride vapor and to an ozone gas.

    Abstract: Methods of forming a microelectronic structure are described. Embodiments of those methods may include providing a gate electrode comprising a top surface and first and second laterally opposite sidewalls, wherein a hard mask is disposed on the top surface, a source drain region disposed on opposite sides of the gate electrode, and a spacer disposed on the first and second laterally opposed sidewalls of the gate electrode, forming a silicon germanium layer on exposed portions of the top surface and the first and second laterally opposite sidewalls of the source drain region and then oxidizing a portion of the silicon germanium layer, wherein a germanium portion of the silicon germanium layer is forced down into the source drain region to convert a silicon portion of the source drain region into a silicon germanium portion of the source drain region.
