    摘要: A process sequence for an eight square folded bit line dynamic random access memory (DRAM) cell allows a transfer device channel length of two lithographic features. The method uses conventional processing techniques with no spacer defined features and uses conventional structures. The process sequence starts with deep trench (DT) processing, followed by deposition of insulator such as SiO2, planarization and pad strip. Then gate insulator and gate conductor are deposited. Also a pad or thin insulator can be deposited at this stage. The structure is etched using a shallow trench isolation mask and filled with SiO.sub.2. The gate conductor such as polysilicon is etched with a contact mask and reactive ion etching. If not previously deposited, a thin insulator is deposited. The structure is etched again with a gate poly contact mask. A gate conductor is then deposited. After a final etch, wiring is added.

    摘要: An improved alignment methodology for lithography. In the method, a third level is aligned to two previous levels, where the alignment mark location for the third level is calculated based upon the two previous levels in both the x- and y-directions. A preferred embodiment of the invention relates to a lithography alignment method for aligning a third level of a semiconductor device relative to first and second previous levels of the device. The method comprises the steps of forming first and second patterns at the first and second levels respectively, and determining offsets of the first and second patterns in two orthoginal directions. An optimum location for a third pattern in the third level is then determined based on an average of the offsets of the first and second patterns.

    摘要: A memory cell in an integrated circuit is fabricated in part by forming a lower electrode feature, an island, a sacrificial feature, a gate feature, and a phase change feature. The island is formed on the lower electrode feature and has one or more sidewalls. It comprises a lower doped feature, a middle doped feature formed above the lower doped feature, and an upper doped feature formed above the middle doped feature. The sacrificial feature is formed above the island, while the gate feature is formed along each sidewall of the island. The gate feature overlies at least a portion of the middle doped feature of the island and is operative to control an electrical resistance therein. Finally, the phase feature is formed above the island at least in part by replacing at least a portion of the sacrificial feature with a phase change material. The phase change material is operative to switch between lower and higher electrical resistance states in response to an application of an electrical signal.

    摘要: A well isolation trenches for a CMOS device and the method for forming the same. The CMOS device includes (a) a semiconductor substrate, (b) a P well and an N well in the semiconductor substrate, (c) a well isolation region sandwiched between and in direct physical contact with the P well and the N well. The P well comprises a first shallow trench isolation (STI) region, and the N well comprises a second STI region. A bottom surface of the well isolation region is at a lower level than bottom surfaces of the first and second STI regions. When going from top to bottom of the well isolation region, an area of a horizontal cross section of the well isolation region is an essentially continuous function.
