    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes an integrated trench capacitor in a substrate, with a field oxide layer on the substrate. The trench capacitor includes trenches extending into semiconductor material of the substrate, and a capacitor dielectric in the trenches on the semiconductor material. The trench capacitor further includes an electrically conductive trench-fill material on the capacitor dielectric. A portion of the capacitor dielectric extends into the field oxide layer, between a first segment of the field oxide layer over the trench-fill material and a second segment of the field oxide layer over the semiconductor material. The integrated trench capacitor has a trench contact to the trench-fill material in each of the trenches, and substrate contacts to the semiconductor material around the trenches, with no substrate contacts between the trenches.

    Abstract: Semiconductor devices including a nitrogen doped field relief dielectric layer are described. The microelectronic device comprises a substrate including a body region having a first conductivity type and a drain drift region having a second conductivity type opposite the first conductivity type; a gate dielectric layer on the substrate, the gate dielectric layer extending over the body region and the drift region and a doped field relief dielectric layer on the drift region. Doping of the field relief dielectric layer with nitrogen raises the dielectric constant of the field relief dielectric above that of pure silicon dioxide. Increasing the dielectric constant of the field relief dielectric layer may improve channel hot carrier performance, improve breakdown voltage, and reduce the specific on resistance of the microelectronic device compared to a microelectronic device of similar size with a field relief dielectric which is not doped with nitrogen.
