摘要:
A structure and method of forming through substrate vias in forming semiconductor components are described. In one embodiment, the invention describes a method of forming a through substrate via by partially filling an opening with a fill material, and forming a first insulating layer over the first fill material thereby forming a gap over the opening. The method further includes forming a second insulating layer to close the gap thereby forming an enclosed cavity within the opening.

A method for producing an electrically conductive connection between a first surface of a semiconductor substrate and a second surface of the semiconductor substrate includes producing a hole, forming an electrically conductive layer that includes tungsten, removing the electrically conductive layer from the first surface of the semiconductor substrate, filling the hole with copper and thinning the semiconductor substrate. The hole is produced from the first surface of the semiconductor substrate into the semiconductor substrate. The electrically conductive layer is removed from the first surface of the semiconductor substrate, wherein the electrically conductive layer remains at least with reduced thickness in the hole. The semiconductor substrate is thinned starting from a surface, which is an opposite surface of the first surface of the semiconductor substrate, to obtain the second surface of the semiconductor substrate with the hole being uncovered at the second surface of the semiconductor substrate.

A structure and method of forming through substrate vias in forming semiconductor components are described. In one embodiment, the invention describes a method of forming the through substrate via by filling an opening with a first fill material and depositing a first insulating layer over the first fill material, the first insulating layer not being deposited on sidewalls of the fill material in the opening, wherein sidewalls of the first insulating layer form a gap over the opening. The method further includes forming a void by sealing the opening using a second insulating layer.

A dielectric barrier layer composed of a metal oxide is applied in thin layers with a thickness of less than 20 nanometers in the course of processing semiconductor devices by sequential gas phase deposition or molecular beam epitaxy in molecular individual layers on differently structured base substrates. The method allows, inter alias, effective conductive diffusion barriers to be formed from a dielectric material, an optimization of the layer thickness of the barrier layer, an increase in the temperature budget for subsequent process steps, and a reduction in the effort for removing the temporary barrier layers.

摘要:
In a method for fabricating a semiconductor structure a semiconductor substrate comprising an active region with an uncovered top side is provided, at least one STI trench adjoining the active region is formed, and an STI divot is formed in the insulating filling. The at least one STI trench comprises an insulating filling extending to above the top side of the active region and the divot adjoins the active region and uncovers an edge of the uncovered top side of the active region. A hydrogen termination of the uncovered top side of the active region is formed and a heat treatment in a hydrogen atmosphere is carried out in order to form a rounding from the edge of the active region in such a way that the top side of the active region continuously merges into the STI divot.
