摘要:
Stack and trench memory cells are provided in a DRAM memory cell array. The stack and trench memory cells are arranged so as to form identical cell pairs each having a trench capacitor, a stack capacitor and a semiconductor fin, in which the active areas of two select transistors for addressing the trench and stack capacitors are formed. The semiconductor fins are arranged in succession in the longitudinal direction to form cell rows and in this arrangement are spaced apart from one another by in each case a trench capacitor. Respectively adjacent cell rows are separated from one another by trench isolator structures and are offset with respect to one another by half the length of a cell pair. The semiconductor fins are crossed by at least two active word lines, which are orthogonal with respect to the cell rows, for addressing the select transistors realized in the semiconductor fin.

Memory cells each having a cell capacitor and a cell transistor, which are arranged in a vertical cell structure, are provided in the cell array of a DRAM. By means of a deep implantation or a shallow implantation and subsequent epitaxial growth of silicon, a buried source/drain layer is formed, from which lower source/drain regions of the cell transistors emerge. The upper edge of the buried source/drain layer can be aligned with respect to a lower edge of a gate electrode of the cell transistor and this results in a reduction of a gate/drain capacitance and also a leakage current between the gate electrode and the lower source/drain region. A body connection plate for the connection of the channel regions is applied to the substrate surface and contact holes are introduced into the body connection plate. Upper source/drain regions of the cell transistors are formed by implantation through the contact holes.

A gate conductor layer structure is applied and there are formed, from the gate conductor layer structure, in a controlled transistor array, gate electrode structures of control transistors and, in the cell array, a body connection structure for the connection of body regions of the cell transistors.
