    摘要: Methods of forming a registration mark such as an alignment mark or overlay mark during formation of sub-lithographic structures are provided. Methods may include forming a plurality of mandrels over a hard mask over a semiconductor layer, each mandrel including a spacer adjacent thereto. At least one mandrel is selected of the plurality of mandrels and a mask is formed over the at least one selected mandrel. The plurality of mandrels are removed leaving the spacers, the mask preventing removal of the at least one selected mandrel. The mask is removed. A first etching patterns the sub-lithographic structures and the registration mark into the hard mask using the spacers as a pattern of the sub-lithographic structure and the at least one selected mandrel and adjacent spacer for the registration mark. A second etching forms the sub-lithographic structures in the semiconductor layer using the patterned hard mask and to form the registration mark in the semiconductor layer using the at least one selected mandrel and the patterned hard mask.

    摘要: A dielectric material layer is formed on a semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) substrate including a top semiconductor layer containing a first semiconductor material. An opening is formed within the dielectric material layer, and a trench is formed in the top semiconductor layer within the area of the opening by an etch. A second semiconductor material is deposited to a height above the top surface of the top semiconductor layer employing a selective epitaxy process. Another dielectric material layer can be deposited, and another trench can be formed in the top semiconductor layer. Another semiconductor material can be deposited to a different height employing another selective epitaxy process. The various semiconductor material portions can be patterned to form semiconductor fins having different heights and/or different compositions.

    摘要: A method of forming a memory cell including forming trenches in a layered semiconductor structure, each trench having an inner sidewall adjacent a section of the layered semiconductor structure between the trenches and an outer sidewall opposite the inner sidewall. The trenches are filled with polysilicon and the patterning layer is formed over the layered semiconductor structure. An opening is then patterned through the patterning layer, the opening exposing the section of the layered semiconductor structure between the trenches and only a vertical portion of the polysilicon along the inner sidewall of each trench. The layered semiconductor structure is then etched. The patterning layer prevents a second vertical portion of the polysilicon along the outer sidewall of each trench from being removed.
