The present invention provides a method for etching a substrate, a method for forming an integrated circuit, an integrated circuit formed using the method, and an integrated circuit. The method for etching a substrate includes, among other steps, providing a substrate 140 having an aluminum oxide etch stop layer 130 located thereunder, and then etching an opening 150, 155, in the substrate 140 using an etchant comprising carbon oxide, a fluorocarbon, an etch rate modulator, and an inert carrier gas, wherein a flow rate of the carbon oxide is greater than about 80 sccm and the etchant is selective to the aluminum oxide etch stop layer 130. The aluminum oxide etch stop layer may also be used in the back-end of advanced CMOS processes as a via etch stop layer.

One aspect of the invention provides a method of manufacturing a FeRAM semiconductor device having reduce single bit fails. This aspect includes forming an electrical contact within a dielectric layer located over a semiconductor substrate and forming a first barrier layer over the dielectric layer and the electrical contact. The first barrier layer is formed by depositing multiple barrier layers and densifying each of the barrier layers after its deposition. This forms a stack of multiple barrier layers of a same elemental composition. The method further includes forming a second barrier layer over the first barrier layer and forming a lower capacitor electrode, a ferroelectric dielectric layer over the lower capacitor, and forming an upper capacitor electrode over the ferroelectric dielectric layer. A device made by this method is also provided herein.

摘要:
A planar integrated MEMS device has a piezoelectric element on a dielectric isolation layer over a flexible element attached to a proof mass. The piezoelectric element contains a ferroelectric element with a perovskite structure formed over an isolation dielectric. At least two electrodes are formed on the ferroelectric element. An upper hydrogen barrier is formed over the piezoelectric element. Front side singulation trenches are formed at a periphery of the MEMS device extending into the semiconductor substrate. A DRIE process removes material from the bottom side of the substrate to form the flexible element, removes material from the substrate under the front side singulation trenches, and forms the proof mass from substrate material. The piezoelectric element overlaps the flexible element.
