    摘要: Two trenches having different widths are formed in a semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) substrate. An oxygen-impermeable layer and a fill material layer are formed in the trenches. The fill material layer and the oxygen-impermeable layer are removed from within a first trench. A thermal oxidation is performed to convert semiconductor materials underneath sidewalls of the first trench into an upper thermal oxide portion and a lower thermal oxide portion, while the remaining oxygen-impermeable layer on sidewalls of a second trench prevents oxidation of the semiconductor materials. After formation of a node dielectric on sidewalls of the second trench, a conductive material is deposited to fill the trenches, thereby forming a conductive trench fill portion and an inner electrode, respectively. The upper and lower thermal oxide portions function as components of dielectric material portions that electrically isolate two device regions.

    摘要: A node dielectric and a conductive trench fill region filling a deep trench are recessed to a depth that is substantially coplanar with a top surface of a semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) layer. A shallow trench isolation portion is formed on one side of an upper portion of the deep trench, while the other side of the upper portion of the deep trench provides an exposed surface of a semiconductor material of the conductive fill region. A selective epitaxy process is performed to deposit a raised source region and a raised strap region. The raised source region is formed directly on a planar source region within the SOI layer, and the raised strap region is formed directly on the conductive fill region. The raised strap region contacts the raised source region to provide an electrically conductive path between the planar source region and the conductive fill region.

    摘要: In a vertical dynamic memory cell, monocrystalline semiconductor material of improved quality is provided for the channel of an access transistor by lateral epitaxial growth over an insulator material (which complements the capacitor dielectric in completely surrounding the storage node except at a contact connection structure, preferably of metal, from the access transistor to the storage node electrode) and etching away a region of the lateral epitaxial growth including a location where crystal lattice dislocations are most likely to occur; both of which features serve to reduce or avoid leakage of charge from the storage node. An isolation structure can be provided in the etched region such that space is provided for connections to various portions of a memory cell array.

A channel region is also present and is located within the semiconductor substrate beneath the at least one patterned gate stack. The structure further includes a localized workfunction tuning area located within a portion of at least one of the extension regions that is positioned adjacent the channel region as well as within at least a sidewall portion of the at least one gate stack. The localized workfunction tuning area can be formed by ion implantation or annealing.

    摘要: After forming a planarization dielectric layer in a replacement gate integration scheme, disposable gate structures are removed and a stack of a gate dielectric layer and a gate electrode layer is formed within recessed gate regions. Each gate electrode structure is then recessed below a topmost surface of the gate dielectric layer. A dielectric metal oxide portion is formed above each gate electrode by planarization. The dielectric metal oxide portions and gate spacers are employed as a self-aligning etch mask in combination with a patterned photoresist to expose and metalize semiconductor surfaces of a source region and an inner electrode in each embedded memory cell structure. The metalized semiconductor portions form metal semiconductor alloy straps that provide a conductive path between the inner electrode of a capacitor and the source of an access transistor.
