    摘要: A test key for validating the doping concentration of buried layers within a deep trench capacitor. The test key is deposited in the scribe line region of a wafer. In the test key of the present invention, the deep trench capacitor is deposited in the scribe line region and has three buried layers of three doping concentrations. An isolation region is deposited in the capacitor, and a first plug, a second and a third plug are coupled to three positions of one buried layer of the three respectively. The present invention determines whether the doping concentration of buried layers within a deep trench capacitor is valid by a first resistance measured between the first plug and the second plug and a second resistance measured between the second plug and the third plug.

    摘要: A method and device for detecting alignment of bit lines and bit line contacts in DRAM devices. In the present invention, the test device is disposed in the scribe line region and is formed by the same masks and process as the bit lines and bit line contacts in the memory regions simultaneously. The memory deices and test may have the same alignment shift between bit line contacts and bit line due to use of the same masks and process. Thus, alignment of bit lines and bit line contacts in the memory region is determined according to two resistances (R1 and R2) detected by the test device. Further, the alignment shift can be obtained by Δ ⁢   ⁢ W = R MO × L × ( 1 R 1 - 1 R 2 ) , wherein RMO is the resistance per surface area of the bit lines, and L is the length of the bar-type bit line contacts in the test device.
