    摘要: Methods and apparatus for providing an antifuse are disclosed, where the antifuse includes a semiconductor substrate having an active area circumscribed by a shallow trench isolation (STI) boundary; a gate conductor disposed above the semiconductor substrate and overlying at least a portion of the STI boundary; a dielectric disposed between the semiconductor substrate and the gate conductor; a first terminal coupled to the gate conductor; and a second terminal coupled to the semiconductor substrate, wherein a breakdown of the dielectric causes electrical connections between regions of the gate conductor and regions of the active area including substantially near the STI boundary.

    摘要: Interconnect structures having improved electromigration resistance are provided that include a metallic interfacial layer (or metal alloy layer) that is present at the bottom of a via opening. The via opening is located within a second dielectric material that is located atop a first dielectric material that includes a first conductive material embedded therein. The metallic interfacial layer (or metal alloy layer) that is present at the bottom of the via opening is located between the underlying first conductive material embedded within the first dielectric and the second conductive material that is embedded within the second dielectric material. Methods of fabricating the improved electromigration resistance interconnect structures are also provided.

    摘要: An isolated shallow trench isolation portion is formed in a top semiconductor portion of a semiconductor-on-insulator substrate along with a shallow trench isolation structure. A trench in the shape of a ring is formed around a doped top semiconductor portion and filled with a conductive material such as doped polysilicon. The isolated shallow trench isolation portion and the portion of a buried insulator layer bounded by a ring of the conductive material are etched to form a cavity. A capacitor dielectric is formed on exposed semiconductor surfaces within the cavity and above the doped top semiconductor portion. A conductive material portion formed in the trench and above the doped top semiconductor portion constitutes an inner electrode of a capacitor, while the ring of the conductive material, the doped top semiconductor portion, and a portion of a handle substrate abutting the capacitor dielectric constitute a second electrode.

    摘要: Novel semiconductor structures and methods are disclosed for forming a buried recombination layer underneath the bulk portion of a hybrid orientation technology by implanting at least one recombination center generating element to reduce single event upset rates in CMOS devices thereabove. The crystalline defects in the buried recombination layer caused by the recombination center generating elements are not healed even after a high temperature anneal and serve as recombination centers where holes and electrons generated by ionizing radiation are collected by. Multiple buried recombination layers may be formed. Optionally, one such layer may be biased with a positive voltage to prevent latchup by collecting electrons.
