    摘要: A method of fabricating a plurality of FinFETs on a semiconductor substrate in which the gate width of each individual FinFET is defined utilizing only a single etching process, instead of two or more, is provided. The inventive method results in improved gate width control and less variation of the gate width of each individual gate across the entire surface of the substrate. The inventive method achieves the above by utilizing a modified sidewall image transfer (SIT) process in which an insulating spacer that is later replaced by a gate conductor is employed and a high-density bottom up oxide fill is used to isolate the gate from the substrate.

    摘要: A method of forming a memory cell having a trench capacitor and a vertical transistor in a semiconductor substrate includes a step of providing a bonded semiconductor wafer having a lower substrate with an [010] axis parallel to a first wafer axis and an upper semiconductor layer having an [010] axis oriented at forty-five degrees with respect to the wafer axis, the two being connected by a layer of bonding insulator; etching a trench through the upper layer and lower substrate; enlarging the lower portion of the trench and converting the cross section of the upper portion of the trench from octagonal to rectangular, so that sensitivity to alignment errors between the trench lithography and the active area lithography is reduced. An alternative version employs a bonded semiconductor wafer having a lower substrate formed from a (111) crystal structure and the same upper portion. Applications include a vertical transistor that becomes insensitive to misalignment between the trench and the lithographic pattern for the active area, in particular a DRAM cell with a vertical transistor.

According to such method, a trench is formed in a semiconductor substrate, the trench having a trench sidewall, the sidewall including an upper portion, and a lower portion disposed below the upper portion. A dopant source layer is formed along the lower portion of the trench sidewall, the dopant source layer not being disposed along the upper portion of the trench sidewall. A layer is formed to cover the upper portion of the trench sidewall. Annealing is then performed to drive a dopant from the dopant source layer into the semiconductor substrate adjacent to the lower portion of the trench sidewall.
