    摘要: Among other things, one or more semiconductor arrangements comprising isolation trenches, and techniques for forming such isolation trenches are provided. A substrate comprises a front side surface and a backside surface. One or more devices are formed over the front side surface. A wet etch is performed to form a tapered portion of an isolation trench. A dry etch is performed to form a non-tapered portion of the isolation trench. Because both the wet etch and the dry etch are performed, etching time is reduced compared to merely using the dry etch due to the wet etch having a relatively faster etch rate than the dry etch. In an embodiment, the isolation trench provides isolation for a current leakage path associated with a device or other material formed over the front side surface. In an embodiment, metal is formed within the isolation trench for backside metallization.

    摘要: A semiconductor arrangement and methods of formation are provided. The semiconductor arrangement includes a micro-electro mechanical system (MEMS). A via opening is formed through a substrate, first dielectric layer and a first plug of the MEMS. The first plug comprises a first material, where the first material has an etch selectivity different than an etch selectivity of the first dielectric layer. The different etch selectivity of first plug allows the via opening to be formed relatively quickly and with a relatively high aspect ratio and desired a profile, as compared to forming the via opening without using the first plug.

    摘要: One or more techniques or systems for forming a contact structure for a deep trench capacitor (DTC) are provided herein. In some embodiments, a contact structure includes a substrate region, a first region, a second region, contact landings, a first trench region, a first landing region, and a second trench region. In some embodiments, a first region is over the substrate region and a second region is over the first region. For example, the first region and the second region are in the first trench region or the second trench region. Additionally, a contact landing over the first trench region, the second trench region, or the first landing region is in contact with the first region, the second region, or the substrate region. In this manner, additional contacts are provided and landing area is reduced, thus reducing resistance of the DTC, for example.

    摘要: Among other things, one or more wafer edge protection structures and techniques for forming such wafer edge protection structures are provided. A substrate of a semiconductor wafer comprises an edge, such as a beveled wafer edge portion, that is susceptible to Epi growth which results in undesirable particle contamination of the semiconductor wafer. Accordingly, a wafer edge protection structure is formed over the beveled wafer edge portion. The wafer edge protection structure comprises an Epi growth resistant material, such as an amorphous material, a non-crystalline material, oxide, or other material. In this way, the wafer edge protection structure mitigates Epi growth on the beveled wafer edge portion, where the Epi growth increases a likelihood of particle contamination from cracking or peeling of an Epi film resulting from the Epi growth. The wafer edge protection structure thus mitigates at least some contamination of the wafer.
