    摘要: Methods of forming capacitors include forming a first mold layer and a second mold layer on a substrate, forming storage electrodes through the mold layers, the storage electrodes arranged in rows extending in a first direction and spaced apart from adjacent storage electrodes along the first direction by a first interval. The storage electrodes are spaced apart from adjacent storage electrodes along a second direction oblique to the first direction by a second interval smaller than the first interval. First and second sacrificial layers are formed on the storage electrodes layer partially filling up a gap between adjacent storage electrodes along the first direction and filling up a gap between the adjacent storage electrodes along the second direction. Sacrificial spacers may be formed on sidewalls of the storage electrodes by etching the sacrificial layers. The second mold layer may be etched using the sacrificial spacers as etching masks to define a plurality of stabilizing structures. Resulting devices are also disclosed.

    摘要: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device by which a generation of a void is prevented after depositing an interlayer dielectric material. First, a plurality of conductive patterns are formed on a substrate and then, a capping insulation layer is formed on the conductive patterns. The capping insulation layer is treated with plasma, and an interlayer dielectric material is deposited on the plasma treated capping insulation layer. The dependency of the interlayer dielectric on the type of material and form of an underlying layer is reduced to improve a gap-filling characteristic, especially for a gap having a high aspect ratio. An improved gap-filling characteristic is accomplished and the formation of all or substantially all of the voids from forming in a gap is prevented even though an interlayer dielectric is deposited under a conventional deposition conditions.

    摘要: A STI (shallow trench isolation) structure is formed with a liner layer that is converted from an initial material to a subsequent material. For example, the liner layer is initially comprised of nitride during wet etch-back of a dielectric fill material comprised of oxide to protect an oxide layer on a semiconductor substrate. Thereafter, an exposed portion of the liner layer is converted into the subsequent material of oxide to protect the dielectric fill material within the STI opening during etching away of masking layers to prevent formation of dents in the STI structure.
