    摘要: Methods and apparatus are disclosed for manufacturing metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitors. The MIM capacitors may comprise an electrode, which may be a top or bottom electrode, which has a bottle neck. The MIM capacitors may comprise an electrode, which may be a top or bottom electrode, in contact with a sidewall of a via. The sidewall contact or the bottle neck of the electrode may burn out to form a high impedance path when the leakage current exceeds a specification, while the sidewall contact or the bottle neck of the electrode has no impact for normal MIM operations. The MIM capacitors may be used as decoupling capacitors.

    摘要: The poor uniformity of Interlevel Dielectric Deposition (ILD) thickness for High Aspect Ratio (HAR) contact after Chemical Mechanical Planarization (CMP) will cause serious underlayer loss due to the longer over-etching time that is required to compensate for thickness differences within the wafer. Prior Art uses 1.5K Plasma Enhanced Tetra-Ethyl-Ortho-Silicate (PETEOS) to serve as a stop layer and thus reduce underlayer loss. The present invention teaches using a non-silicon oxide containing SiN/SiON or Si3N4/SiON as a stop layer. The present invention therefore is aimed at reducing underlayer loss and thereby improving the uniformity of the underlayer thickness upon completion of the hole etching process. Concurrently, the over-etch time can be reduced to less than 10% of the time required for Prior Art contact hole etching.

    摘要: A process for forming a DRAM, cylindrical shaped, stacked capacitor structure, located under a bit line structure, has been developed. The process features defining a polysilicon cell plate structure, during the same photolithotgraphic and anisotropic etching procedures, used to open a bit line contact hole. The bit line contact hole is formed by first opening a top portion of the bit line contact hole, using a photoresist shape as an etch mask, and after the formation of silicon nitride spacers, on the sides of the top portion of the bit line contact hole, the bottom portion of the bit line contact hole is opened, using silicon nitride as an etch mask.

    摘要: Disclosed herein is a DRAM memory cell featuring a reduced size, increased retention time, and compatibility with standard logic manufacturing processes, making it well-suited for use as embedded DRAM. The memory cell disclosed herein includes a pass-gate transistor and a storage region. The transistor includes a gate and a drain. The storage region includes a trench, which is preferably a Shallow Trench Isolation (STI). A non-insulating structure, e.g., formed of polysilicon or metal, is located in the trench as serves as a capacitor node. The trench is partially defined by a doped sidewall that serves as a source for the transistor. The poly structure and the trench sidewall are separated by a dielectric layer. The write operation involves charge transport to the non-insulating structure by direct tunneling through the dielectric layer. The read operation is assisted by Gate Induced Drain Leakage (GIDL) current generated on the surface of the sidewall.

    摘要: The types of quasi-planar CMOS and FinFET-like transistor devices on a bulk silicon substrate are disclosed. A first device has a doped and recessed channel formed in a shallow trench sidewall. A second device has a doped, recessed channel and has a plurality of edge-fins juxtaposed on an edge of an active region of the device. A third device has an undoped recessed channel formed in a sidewall of a shallow trench, wherein the undoped recessed channel further has a plurality of edge-fins disposed thereon. Additionally, an extra mask may be added to each device to allow for fabrication of both conventional transistors and FinFET-like transistors on bulk silicon. The extra mask may protect the source and drain areas from recess etching of the silicon substrate. Several methods of fabricating each device are also disclosed.
