    摘要: 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.

    摘要: Trench anti-fuse structures, design structures embodied in a machine readable medium for designing, manufacturing, or testing a programmable integrated circuit. The anti-fuse structure includes a trench having a plurality of sidewalls that extend into a substrate, a doped region in the semiconductor material of the substrate proximate to the sidewalls of the trench, a conductive plug in the trench, and a dielectric layer on the sidewalls of the trench. The dielectric layer is disposed between the conductive plug and the doped region. The dielectric layer is configured so that a programming voltage applied between the doped region and the conductive plug causes a breakdown of the dielectric layer within a region of the trench. The trench sidewalls are arranged with a cross-sectional geometrical shape that is independent of position between a bottom wall of the deep trench and a top surface of the substrate.

    摘要: Electrically programmable fuse structures for an integrated circuit and methods of fabrication thereof are presented, wherein the electrically programmable fuse has a first terminal portion and a second terminal portion interconnected by a fuse element. The first terminal portion and the second terminal portion reside over a first support and a second support, respectively, with the first support and the second support being spaced apart, and the fuse element bridging the distance between the first terminal portion over the first support and the second terminal portion over the second support. The fuse, first support and second support define a π-shaped structure in elevational cross-section through the fuse element. The first terminal portion, second terminal portion and fuse element are coplanar, with the fuse element residing above a void, which in one embodiment is filed by a thermally insulating dielectric material that surrounds the fuse element.
