摘要： Phenomena such as electromigration and stress-induced migration occurring in metal interconnects of devices such as integrated circuits are inhibited by use of underlying non-planarities. Thus the material underlying the interconnect is formed to have non-planarities typically of at least 0.02 μm in height and advantageously within 100 μm of another such non-planarity. Such non-planarities, it is contemplated, reduce grain boundary movement in the overlying interconnect with a concomitant reduction in void aggregation.

摘要： A method of forming a semiconductor structure in a semiconductor wafer includes the steps of forming an epitaxial layer on at least a portion of a semiconductor substrate of a first conductivity type and forming at least one trench through the epitaxial layer to at least partially expose the substrate. The method further includes doping at least one or more sidewalls of the at least one trench with an impurity of a known concentration level. The at least one trench is then substantially filled with a filler material. In this manner, a low-resistance electrical path is formed between an upper surface of the epitaxial layer and the substrate.

摘要： A technique for forming a semiconductor structure in a semiconductor wafer includes the steps of forming an epitaxial layer on a least a portion of a semiconductor substrate of a first conductivity type and forming at least one trench in an upper surface of the semiconductor wafer and partially into the epitaxial layer. The method further includes the step of forming at least one diffusion region between a bottom wall of the trench and the substrate, the diffusion region providing an electrical path between the bottom wall of the trench and the substrate. One or more sidewalls of the trench are doped with a first impurity of a known concentration level so as to form an electrical path between an upper surface of the epitaxial layer and the at least one diffusion region. The trench is then filled with a filler material.
