A transistor is provided which advantageously utilizes a part of the area which, in conventional transistors, is provided for the isolation between the transistors. In this case, the channel width can be enlarged in a self-aligned manner without the risk of short circuits. The field-effect transistor according to the invention has the advantage that it is possible to ensure a significant increase in the effective channel width for the forward current ION compared with previously used, conventional transistor structures, without having to accept a reduction of the integration density that can be attained. Thus, by way of example, the forward current ION can be increased by up to 50%, without having to alter the arrangement of the active regions or of the trench isolation.

A semiconductor device with a substrate includes a structure. The structure has a first part and a second part. At least one section of the edge of the first part of the structure is at an essential constant distance measured parallel to the substrate to a first section of an edge of a second structure. At least one section of the edge of the second part of the structure is lined with an edge of a second section of the same second section. The first section of the edge of the second structure and a second section of the edge of the second structure merge at least at one point, whereby the angle between the tangents of the edges of the first and second section of the second structure is less than 90°. The structure and the second structure are distanced by a spacer structure.

A method teaches how to fill trench structures formed in a semiconductor substrate. The trench structures are coated in a first deposition process with a first primary filling layer with a high conformity and minimal roughness. A V etching reaching down to a predetermined depth of the trench structure is subsequently performed in order to produce a V-profile.

A buried conductive connection to a trench capacitor is formed in such a way that a contact area is provided between a conductive material layer which is arranged in the trench of the trench capacitor and contains a dopant and a semiconductor substrate between a first and a second predetermined trench depth, then dopant is outdiffused into the semiconductor substrate via the contact area by means of heating, in order to form the buried conductive connection in the semiconductor substrate, and afterward the conductive material layer containing the dopant is etched back into the trench as far as a third trench depth lying between the first and second predetermined trench depths, and the trench is covered with an insulation layer.

Memory cells having trench capacitors, the trench capacitor being at least partially filled with a material which could not withstand high-temperature processes used during the fabrication of a memory chip without impairment of its electrical parameters. What is essential to the invention is that the material of the trench capacitor is introduced into the trench after the high-temperature processes. The method according to the invention makes it possible to use dielectric layers having large dielectric constants and electrode layers made of metallic material. The electrical properties of the trench capacitor are thus improved in comparison with known trench capacitors.
摘要:
A field-effect transistor includes a source region, a drain region and a channel region between the source and the drain region. A gate electrode is also arranged between them, where a lower edge of the gate electrode is formed below a lower edge of at least one of the source and drain regions. A first insulator structure is provided between the gate electrode and the source region. A second insulator structure is provided between the gate electrode and the drain region. The first and the second insulator structures are formed asymmetric and may be adapted to different requirements. The asymmetric approach may provide longer transistor channels, a lower resistance of the gate electrode and smaller footprints for 3D-channel-transistors of, for example, array and support transistors in memory cells or power applications.
