摘要:
A microscopic hole is produced in a dielectric layer having a dielectric first material, a first surface and a second surface. In one embodiment, the tapered through-hole is etched from the second surface of the layer to the first surface of the layer. The tapered hole provides a first cross section near the first surface of the dielectric layer and a second cross section near the second surface of dielectric layer. A cladding is deposited at the inner surface of the through-hole. The cladding includes a second material and provides a thickness decreasing from the second surface to the first surface.
摘要:
A structure in a substrate for the manufacturing of a semiconductor device, wherein a first material and at least one second material are to be etched by at least one etching medium, wherein the at least one second material has a higher etch rate for the at least one etching medium relative to the first material. The at least one second material occupies a space which is at least at one side adjacent to the first material so that an additional etching access to the first material is prepared when at least one etching medium etches the first and the second material.

摘要:
A stress relief layer between a single-crystal semiconductor substrate and a deposited silicon nitride layer or pad nitride is formed from thermally produced silicon nitride. The stress relief layer made from thermally produced silicon nitride replaces a silicon dioxide layer or pad oxide which is customary at this location for example in connection with mask layers. After patterning of a mask, which includes a protective layer portion formed from deposited silicon nitride, the material which is provided according to the invention for the stress relief layer reduces the restrictions imposed for subsequent process steps, such as for example wet-etching steps, acting both on the semiconductor substrate or structures in the semiconductor substrate and also on the stress relief layer. The thermal nitriding is advantageously incorporated into a preanneal step for expelling oxygen from the semiconductor substrate, so that the semiconductor substrate is protected from the etching action of the expelled oxygen by the stress relief layer which is formed, there is no need for an additional temporary etching protection layer for the semiconductor substrate and the overall processing is streamlined.

Integrated circuit device comprising a conductive layer and a poly-crystalline silicon layer, wherein the integrated circuit device further comprises an intermediate counter-stress layer. This intermediate counter-stress layer is arranged between the poly-crystalline silicon layer and the conductive layer, and enables stress-reduced crystallization of the poly-crystalline silicon layer. Further, the intermediate counter-stress layer is amorphous at and below a poly-silicon crystallization temperature.
