    摘要: A trench capacitor and related methods are disclosed including a trench having lateral extensions extending in only one direction from the trench filled with a capacitor material. In one embodiment, the trench capacitor includes a trench within a substrate, and at least one lateral extension extending from the trench in only one direction, wherein the trench and each lateral extension are filled with a capacitor material. The lateral extensions increase surface area for the trench capacitor, but do not take up as much space as conventional structures.

    摘要: A protective dielectric layer is formed on a first shallow trench having straight sidewalls, while exposing a second shallow trench. An oxidation barrier layer is formed on the semiconductor substrate. A resist is applied and recessed within the second shallow trench. The oxidation barrier layer is removed above the recessed resist. The resist is removed and thermal oxidation is performed so that a thermal oxide collar is formed above the remaining oxidation mask layer. The oxidation barrier layer is thereafter removed and exposed semiconductor area therebelow depth is etched to form a bottle shaped shallow trench. The first and the bottle shaped trenches are filled with a dielectric material to form a straight sidewall shallow trench isolation structure and a bottle shallow trench isolation structure, respectively. Both shallow trench isolation structures may be employed to provide optimal electrical isolation and device performance to semiconductor devices having different depths.

    摘要: A memory cell has an access transistor and a capacitor with an electrode disposed within a deep trench. STI oxide covers at least a portion of the electrode, and a liner covers a remaining portion of the electrode. The liner may be a layer of nitride over a layer of oxide. Some of the STI may cover a portion of the liner. In a memory array a pass wordline may be isolated from the electrode by the STI oxide and the liner.

    摘要: By controlling buried plate doping level and bias condition, different capacitances can be obtained from capacitors on the same chip with the same layout and deep trench process. The capacitors may be storage capacitors of DRAM/eDRAM cells. The doping concentration may be less than 3E19cm−3, a voltage difference between the biases of the buried electrodes may be at least 0.5V, and a capacitance of one capacitor may be at least 1.2 times, such as 2.0 times the capacitance of another capacitor.

    摘要: An improved trench structure, and method for its fabrication are disclosed. Embodiments of the present invention provide a trench in which the collar portion has an air gap instead of a solid oxide collar. The air gap provides a lower dielectric constant. Embodiments of the present invention can therefore be used to make higher-performance devices (due to reduced parasitic leakage), or smaller devices, due to the ability to use a thinner collar to achieve the same performance as a thicker collar comprised only of oxide (with no air gap). Alternatively, a design choice can be made to achieve a combination of improved performance and reduced size, depending on the application.
