    摘要: An ultra-scalable hybrid memory cell having a low junction leakage and a process of fabricating the same are provided. The ultra-scalable hybrid memory cell contains a conductive connection to the body region therefore avoiding isolation of the P-well due to cut-off by the buried strap outdiffusion region. The ultra-scalable hybrid memory cell avoids the above by using a shallower than normal isolation region that allows the P-well to remain connected to the body of the memory cell.

    摘要: A self-aligned shallow trench isolation region for a memory cell array is formed by etching a plurality of vertical deep trenches in a substrate and coating the trenches with an oxidation barrier layer. The oxidation barrier layer is recessed in portions of the trenches to expose portions of the substrate in the trenches. The exposed portions of the substrate are merged by oxidization into thermal oxide regions to form the self-aligned shallow trench isolation structure which isolates adjacent portions of substrate material. The merged oxide regions are self-aligned as they automatically align to the edges of the deep trenches when merged together to define the location of the isolation region within the memory cell array during IC fabrication. The instant self-aligned shallow trench isolation structure avoids the need for an isolation mask to separate or isolate the plurality of trenches within adjacent active area rows on a single substrate.

    摘要: A memory cell structure including a semiconductor substrate, a deep (e.g., longitudinal) trench in the semiconductor substrate, the deep trench having a plurality of sidewalls and a bottom, a buried strap along a sidewall of the deep trench, a storage capacitor at the bottom of the deep trench, a vertical transistor extending down the sidewall of the deep trench above the storage capacitor, the transistor having a diffusion extending in the plane of the substrate adjacent the deep trench, a collar oxide extending down another sidewall of the deep trench opposite the capacitor, shallow trench isolation regions extending along a surface of the substrate in a direction transverse to the sidewall where the vertical transistor extends, a gate conductor extending within the deep trench, a wordline extending over the deep trench and connected to the gate conductor, and a bitline extending above the surface plane of the substrate having a contact to the diffusion between the shallow trench isolation regions. The deep trench has a perimeter in a direction normal to its depth, and the buried strap extends a distance along the perimeter, the distance being only within a range of 5% to 20% of the entire linear distance along the perimeter, and being less than one lithographic feature size. Preferably, the strap in a direction along the perimeter is curved and is disposed along only one corner of the perimeter. The structure is particularly useful for a sub-8F2 cell.
