摘要:
In a method for producing a cover for a region of a substrate, first a frame structure is produced in the region of the substrate, and then a cap structure is attached to the frame structure so that the region under the cap structure is covered. Thus, sensitive devices may be protected easily and at low cost from external influences and particularly from a casting material for casting the entire packaged device, which results when a diced chip is cast.

A method for fabricating trench capacitors having trenches with mesopores, the trench capacitors being suitable both for discrete capacitors and for integrated semiconductor memories, significantly increases the surface area for electrodes of the capacitors and, hence, the capacitance thereof. The mesopores, which are small woodworm-hole-like channels having diameters from approximately 2 to 50 nm, are fabricated electrochemically. It is, thus, possible to produce capacitances with a large capacitance-to-volume ratio. Growth of the mesopores stops, at the latest, when the mesopores reach a minimum distance from another mesopore or adjacent trench (self-passivation). As such, the formation of “short circuits” between two adjacent mesopores can be avoided in a self-regulated manner. Furthermore, a semiconductor device is provided including at least one trench capacitor on the front side of a semiconductor substrate fabricated by the method according to the invention.

In a method for producing a protective cover for a device which is formed in a substrate, a first cover layer is initially deposited on the substrate, the first cover layer covering an area of the substrate which includes the device. Subsequently, an opening is formed in the first cover layer, the opening exposing that area of the substrate which includes the device. Then the opening formed in the first cover layer is filled up using a filling material. Subsequently, a second cover layer is deposited on the first cover layer and in the opening of the first cover layer which is filled up with the filling material. Thereafter, an opening is formed in the second cover layer to expose an area of the filling material. Finally, the filling material covering that area of the substrate which includes the device is removed, and the opening formed in the second cover layer is closed.
摘要:
A method for the manufacture of micro-mechanical components from a stack of layers having at least a substrate, a sacrificial layer and a layer which is to be undercut includes forming at least one etch hole in the layer, which is to be undercut, and providing at least one passivation layer for controlling a selective depositing of a cover material which closes each of the etch holes after a step of etching the sacrificial layer. The passivation layer makes it possible that the undercut layer elements do not become excessively thick or grow together with the substrate due to the deposition of the cover material.

摘要:
One embodiment of the present invention relates to method for the concurrent deposition of multiple different crystalline structures on a semiconductor body utilizing in-situ differential epitaxy. In one embodiment of the present invention a preparation surface is formed, resulting in two distinct crystalline regions, a monocrystalline silicon substrate region and an isolating layer region. A monocrystalline silicon layer and an amorphous silicon layer are concurrently formed directly onto the preparation surface in the monocrystalline silicon substrate region and the isolating layer region, respectively. Deposition comprises the formation of two or more sub-layers. The process parameters can be varied for each individual sub-layer to optimize deposition characteristics.

A BAW device includes a semiconductor substrate with a surface region, an insulating layer formed on the surface region and a piezoelectric layer sandwiched by a first and second electrode, wherein the second electrode is formed on the insulating layer. The surface region is performed such that a voltage dependence of a capacitance between the substrate and the second electrode is substantially suppressed.
