    摘要: Methods for opening a hard mask and a silicon-on-insulator substrate in a single process chamber are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method includes patterning a photoresist over a stack including an anti-reflective coating (ARC) layer, a silicon dioxide (SiO2) based hard mask layer, a silicon nitride pad layer, a silicon dioxide (SiO2) pad layer and the SOI substrate, wherein the SOI substrate includes a silicon-on-insulator layer and a buried silicon dioxide (SiO2) layer; and in a single process chamber: opening the ARC layer; etching the silicon dioxide (SiO2) based hard mask layer; etching the silicon nitride pad layer; etching the silicon dioxide (SiO2) pad layer; and etching the SOI substrate. Etching all layers in a single chamber reduces the turn-around-time, lowers the process cost, facilitates process control and/or improve a trench profile.

    摘要: Methods of forming a deep trench capacitor through an SOI substrate, and a capacitor are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method includes forming a trench opening into the SOI substrate to the silicon substrate; depositing a sidewall spacer in the trench opening; etching to form the deep trench into the silicon substrate; forming a first electrode by implanting a dopant into the silicon substrate, whereby the sidewall spacer protects the BOX layer and the silicon layer; removing the sidewall spacer; depositing a node dielectric within the deep trench; and forming a second electrode by depositing a conductor in the deep trench. Implanting creates a substantially uniform depth doped region except at a portion adjacent to a lowermost portion of the deep trench, which may be substantially bulbous. The BOX layer is protected from undercutting by the sidewall spacer, and the implantation removes the need for out-diffusing dopant from silica glass.

    摘要: A deep trench is formed to a depth midway into a buried insulator layer of a semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) substrate. A top semiconductor layer is laterally recessed by an isotropic etch that is selective to the buried insulator layer. The deep trench is then etched below a bottom surface of the buried insulator layer. Ion implantation is performed at an angle into the deep trench to dope the sidewalls of the deep trench beneath the buried insulator layer, while the laterally recessed sidewalls of the top semiconductor layer are not implanted with dopant ions. A node dielectric and trench fill materials are deposited into the deep trench. A buried strap has an upper buried strap sidewall that is offset from a lower buried strap sidewall and a deep trench sidewall.

    摘要: A method of edge protecting bonded semiconductor wafers. A second semiconductor wafer and a first semiconductor wafer are attached by a bonding layer/interface and the second semiconductor wafer undergoes a thinning process. As a part of the thinning process, a first protective layer is applied to the edges of the second and first semiconductor wafers. A third semiconductor wafer is attached to the second semiconductor wafer by a bonding layer/interface and the third semiconductor wafer undergoes a thinning process. As a part of the thinning process, a second protective layer is applied to the edges of the third semiconductor wafer and over the first protective layer. The first, second and third semiconductor wafers form a wafer stack. The wafer stack is diced into a plurality of 3D chips while maintaining the first and second protective layers.
