    摘要: A method of forming a memory cell having a trench capacitor and a vertical transistor in a semiconductor substrate includes a step of providing a bonded semiconductor wafer having a lower substrate with an [010] axis parallel to a first wafer axis and an upper semiconductor layer having an [010] axis oriented at forty-five degrees with respect to the wafer axis, the two being connected by a layer of bonding insulator; etching a trench through the upper layer and lower substrate; enlarging the lower portion of the trench and converting the cross section of the upper portion of the trench from octagonal to rectangular, so that sensitivity to alignment errors between the trench lithography and the active area lithography is reduced. An alternative version employs a bonded semiconductor wafer having a lower substrate formed from a (111) crystal structure and the same upper portion. Applications include a vertical transistor that becomes insensitive to misalignment between the trench and the lithographic pattern for the active area, in particular a DRAM cell with a vertical transistor.

    摘要: A structure is provided herein which includes an array of trench capacitors having at least portions disposed below a buried oxide layer of an SOI substrate. Each trench capacitor shares a common unitary buried capacitor plate which includes at least a portion of a first unitary semiconductor region disposed below the buried oxide layer. An upper boundary of the buried capacitor plate defines a plane parallel to a major surface of the substrate which extends laterally throughout the array of trench capacitors. In a particular embodiment, which starts from either an SOI or a bulk substrate, trenches of the array and a contact hole are formed simultaneously, such that the contact hole extends to substantially the same depth as the trenches. The contact hole preferably has substantially greater width than the trenches such that the conductive contact via can be formed simultaneously by processing used to form trench capacitors extending along walls of the trenches.

    摘要: Trench type PIN photodetectors are formed by etching two sets of trenches simultaneously in a semiconductor substrate, the wide trenches having a width more than twice as great as the narrow trenches by a process margin; conformally filling both types of trenches with a sacrificial material doped with a first dopant and having a first thickness slightly greater than one half the width of the narrow trenches, so that the wide trenches have a remaining central aperture; stripping the sacrificial material from the wide trenches in an etch that removes a first thickness, thereby emptying the wide trenches; a) filling the wide trenches with a second sacrificial material of opposite polarity; or b) doping the wide trenches from the ambient such as by gas phase doping, plasma doping, ion implantation, liquid phase doping, infusion doping and plasma immersion ion implantation; diffusing the dopants into the substrate, forming p and n regions of the PIN diode; removing the first and the second sacrificial materials, and filling both the wide and the narrow sets of trenches with the same conductive material in contact with the diffused p and n regions.
