摘要:
A semiconductor structure includes a semiconductor substrate with a substrate region and a trench extending into the surface region of the semiconductor substrate. The trench includes sidewalls, a bottom and a depth. The semiconductor structure further includes a trench liner overlying the bottom and the sidewalls of the trench. The semiconductor structure also includes a shallow trench isolation structure filling at least the depth of the trench. The shallow trench isolation structure is formed from alternating layers of silicon nitride and high-density plasma oxide.
摘要:
A method for making an electrode in a semiconductor device. The method includes forming a trench in a first layer. The first layer is associated with a top surface, and the trench is associated with a bottom surface and a side surface. Additionally, the method includes depositing a diffusion barrier layer on at least the bottom surface, the side surface, and a part of the top surface, removing the diffusion barrier layer from at least a part of the bottom surface, depositing a seed layer on at least the part of the bottom surface and the diffusion barrier layer, and depositing an electrode layer on the seed layer.
摘要:
A method of forming a graded trench for a shallow trench isolation region is provided. The method includes providing a semiconductor substrate with a substrate region. The method further includes forming a pad oxide layer overlying the substrate region. Additionally, the method includes forming an etch stop layer overlying the pad oxide layer. The method further includes patterning the etch stop layer and the pad oxide layer to expose a portion of the substrate region. In addition, the method includes forming a trench within an exposed portion of the substrate region, the trench having sidewalls and a bottom and a first depth. The method additionally includes forming a dielectric layer overlying the trench sidewalls, the trench bottom, and mesa regions adjacent to the trench. The method further includes etching the substrate region to increase the depth of at least a portion of the trench to a second depth.
