    摘要: A trench isolation structure is formed in a substrate. One or more openings are formed in a surface of the substrate, and a liner layer is deposited at least along a bottom and sidewalls of the openings. A layer of doped oxide material is deposited at least in the openings, and the substrate is annealed to reflow the layer of doped oxide material. Only a portion near the surface of the substrate is removed from the layer of doped oxide material in the opening. A cap layer is deposited atop a remaining portion of the layer of doped oxide material in the opening.

    摘要: A method of oxidizing a substrate having area of about 30,000 mm2 or more. The surface is preferably comprised of silicon-containing materials, such as silicon, silicon germanium, silicon carbide, silicon nitride, and metal suicides. A mixture of oxygen-bearing gas and diluent gas normally non-reactive to oxygen, such as Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, and/or Rn are ionized to create a plasma having an electron density of at least about 1e12 cm−3 and containing ambient electrons having an average temperature greater than about 1 eV. The substrate surface is oxidized with energetic particles, comprising primarily atomic oxygen, created in the plasma to form an oxide film of substantially uniform thickness. The oxidation of the substrate takes place at a temperature below about 700° C., e.g., between about room temperature, 20° C., and about 500° C.

    摘要: Semiconductor structures and methods for forming isolation between fin structures formed from a bulk silicon wafer are provided. A bulk silicon wafer is provided having one or more fin structures formed therefrom. Forming of the fin structures defines isolation trenches between the one or more fin structures. Each of the fin structures has vertical sidewalls. An oxide layer is deposited in the isolation trenches and on the vertical sidewalls using HDPCVD in about a 4:1 ratio or greater. The oxide layer is isotropically etched to remove the oxide layer from the vertical sidewalls and a portion of the oxide layer from the bottom of the isolation trenches. A substantially uniformly thick isolating oxide layer is formed on the bottom of the isolation trench to isolate the one or more fin structures and substantially reduce fin height variability.
