    摘要: The invention includes methods of forming isolation regions. An opening can be formed to extend into a semiconductor material, and an upper periphery of the opening can be protected with a liner while a lower periphery is unlined. The unlined portion can then be etched to form a widened region of the opening. Subsequently, the opening can be filled with insulative material to form an isolation region. Transistor devices can then be formed on opposing sides of the isolation region, and electrically isolated from one another with the isolation region. The invention also includes semiconductor constructions containing an electrically insulative isolation structure extending into a semiconductor material, with the structure having a bulbous bottom region and a stem region extending upwardly from the bottom region to a surface of the semiconductor material.

    摘要: Some embodiments include methods of forming isolation regions in which spin-on material (for example, polysilazane) is converted to a silicon dioxide-containing composition. The conversion may utilize one or more oxygen-containing species (such as ozone) and a temperature of less than or equal to 300° C. In some embodiments, the spin-on material is formed within an opening in a semiconductor material to form a trenched isolation region. Other dielectric materials may be formed within the opening in addition to the silicon dioxide-containing composition formed from the spin-on material. Such other dielectric materials may include silicon dioxide formed by chemical vapor deposition and/or silicon dioxide formed by high-density plasma chemical vapor deposition.

    摘要: A method of removing a metal nitride material is disclosed. The method comprises forming a semiconductor device structure comprising an exposed metal material and an exposed metal nitride material. The semiconductor device structure is subjected to a solution comprising water, ozone, and at least one additive to remove the exposed metal nitride material at a substantially greater rate than the exposed metal material. Resulting semiconductor device structures are also disclosed, as are compositions used to form the semiconductor device structures.
