Abstract:
A method of forming a conductive contact includes forming a structure comprising an upper surface joining with a sidewall surface. The sidewall surface contains elemental-form silicon. Silicon is epitaxially grown from the sidewall surface. Dielectric material is formed over the upper surface and the epitaxially-grown silicon. A conductive contact is formed through the dielectric material to conductively connect with the upper surface.
