摘要:
A conductor track configuration for very large-scale integrated circuits includes at least two lower conductor tracks extending substantially in a first direction and at least two upper conductor tracks extending substantially in the first direction above the lower conductor tracks. Each of the lower conductor tracks is subdivided into segments, defining gaps between the segments. Each respective one of the segments has one contact leading to the upper conductor track disposed above the one segment. The lower conductor tracks adjacent the segments, as seen in a second direction, have one of the gaps at least in the vicinity of one of the contacts.

A memory device includes a multiplicity of memory cells disposed on a substrate for at least intermittent stable storage of at least two different information states. A writing device is associated with the memory cells for selectively putting one of the multiplicity of memory cells into a predetermined information state by external action. A reading device is associated with the memory cells for external detection of a current or chronologically preceding information state of a selected memory cell. The memory cells have a miniaturized mechanical element. The production of such a memory device is performed with the following steps: full-surface application of a first insulator layer onto a main surface of a substrate; full-surface application of a diaphragm layer being formed of an electrically conductive material onto the first insulator layer; structuring of the diaphragm layer in such a way that first conductor tracks are formed, which have enlargements at points of the memory cells; isotropic etching of the first insulator layer, using the structured diaphragm layer as an etching mask, until such time as a sharp point remains behind in the middle, immediately beneath the enlargement; and removal of all of the material of the fist insulator layer on the underside of the enlargement, thus forming a diaphragm.
摘要:
A semiconductor memory configuration and a manufacturing process for the semiconductor memory configuration use a polishing process in the manufacture of a semiconductor memory configuration with stacked-capacitor-above-bit-line memory cells. At least TC pillars are created with the aid of a CMP step and a completely planarized surface existing prior to the manufacture of the bit line. Further CMP steps are advantageously used, inter alia, in the manufacture of a TB pillar of a bit line which is countersunk in a trench and of a lower capacitor plate, as well as to completely planarize a cell array and a periphery prior to interconnection of the circuit.

For the global planarization of a semiconductor circuit or a micromechanical component with a step between a higher-lying region and a lower-lying region, the regions being large in area, it is envisaged to deposit a first layer (50), remove it again in the higher-lying region apart from a rib (50), deposit a second layer (51) and then, in a CMP step, planarize the entire arrangement.

The memory cell configuration has a large number of memory cells provided in a semiconductor substrate and having bit-line trenches which extend in parallel in the longitudinal direction in the main face of the semiconductor substrate, at the bottoms of which in each case a first conductive region is provided, at the peaks of which in each case a second conductive region of the same conduction type as the first conductive region is provided, and in the walls of which in each case an intermediately located channel region is 0 provided; and having word lines which extend in the transverse direction along the main face of the semiconductor substrate, through specific bit-line trenches, to activate transistors provided there. An additional dopant is introduced into the trench walls of the bit-line trenches which are located between the word lines, in order to increase the corresponding transistor turn-on voltage there to suppress leakage currents.

摘要:
Memory cell transistors with back-channel isolation are produced without using an SOI substrate. With the word line stack acting as a mask, the semiconductor material is etched on both sides of the world line, first anisotropically and then isotropically to widen the etch hole and form an undercut beneath the gate electrode and at a distance from the ONO storage layer forming the gate dielectric. The undercut is filled, whereby a buried oxide layer of at least 20 nm maximum thickness is formed underneath the channel region. The latter is p-doped at a density of at least 1017 cm−3.
