摘要:
A method for clearing an isolation collar from a first interior surface of a deep trench at a location above a storage capacitor while leaving the isolation collar at other surfaces of the deep trench. A barrier material is deposited above a node conductor of the storage capacitor. A layer of silicon is deposited over the barrier material. Dopant ions are implanted at an angle into the layer of deposited silicon within the deep trench, thereby leaving the deposited silicon unimplanted along one side of the deep trench. The unimplanted silicon is etched. The isolation collar is removed in locations previously covered by the unimplanted silicon, leaving the isolation collar in locations covered by the implanted silicon.

A trench capacitor structure for improved charge retention and method of manufacturing thereof are provided. A trench is formed in a p-type conductivity semiconductor substrate. An isolation collar is located in an upper portion of the trench. The substrate adjacent the upper portion of the trench contains a first n+ type conductivity region and a second n+ type conductivity region. These regions each abut a wall of the trench and are separated vertically by a portion of the p-type conductivity semiconductor substrate. A void which encircles the perimeter of the trench is formed into the wall of the trench and is located in the substrate between the first and second n+ type conductivity regions.

A trench capacitor memory cell structure is provided with includes a vertical collar region that suppresses current leakage of an adjacent vertical parasitic transistor that exists between the vertical MOSFET and the underlying trench capacitor. The vertical collar isolation, which has a vertical length of about 0.50 &mgr;m or less, includes a first portion that is present partially outside the trench and a second portion that is present inside the trench. The first portion of the collar oxide is thicker than said second portion oxide thereby reducing parasitic current leakage.
摘要:
The surface area of the walls of a trench formed in a substrate is increased. A barrier layer is formed on the walls of the trench such that the barrier layer is thinner near the corners of the trench and is thicker between the corners of the trench. A dopant is introduced into the substrate through the barrier layer to form higher doped regions in the substrate near the corners of the trench and lesser doped regions between the corners of the trench. The barrier layer is removed, and the walls of the trench are etched in a manner that etches the lesser doped regions of the substrate at a higher rate than the higher doped regions of the substrate to widen and lengthen the trench and to form rounded corners at the intersections of the walls of the trench.

A method for fabricating a trench capacitor in a semiconductor substrate with a low-impedance inner electrode for use in memory cells of memory devices. A separating layer is provided on a dielectric layer in the active region of the trench capacitor. Afterward, a low-impedance inner electrode made of metal or a metal compound is introduced both in the active region and in the collar region lined with an insulation layer.
摘要:
Fabricating a trench capacitor with an insulation collar in a substrate, which is electrically connected thereto on one side through a buried contact, in particular, for a semiconductor memory cell with a planar selection transistor in the substrate and connected through the buried contact, includes providing a trench using an opening in a hard mask, providing a capacitor dielectric in lower and central trench regions, the collar in central and upper trench regions, and a conductive filling at least as far as the insulation collar topside, completely filling the trench with a filling material, carrying out STI trench fabrication process, removing the filling material and sinking the filling to below the collar topside, forming an insulation region on one side above the collar; uncovering a connection region on a different side above the collar, and forming the buried contact by depositing and etching back a metallic filling.
