摘要:
A method of forming a microelectronic device includes the step of forming an impurity doped amorphous silicon layer on a microelectronic substrate using plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition. The impurity doped amorphous silicon layer is patterned so that portions of the microelectronic substrate are exposed adjacent the patterned amorphous silicon layer. A hemispherical grained silicon layer is then formed on the patterned amorphous silicon layer. Moreover, the step of forming the impurity doped amorphous silicon layer can be performed at a temperature of 400.degree. C. or less.
摘要:
Methods are provided for conductively contacting an integrated circuit, including a plurality of spaced apart lines thereon, using a dummy dielectric layer. A dummy dielectric layer is formed between first selected ones of the spaced apart lines. An interdielectric layer is formed between second selected ones of the spaced apart lines that are different from the first selected ones of the lines. The interdielectric layer has a lower etch rate than the dummy dielectric layer with respect to a predetermined etchant. The dummy dielectric layer is etched with the predetermined etchant, to remove at least some of the dummy dielectric layer between the first selected ones of the spaced apart lines. A conductive layer is formed between the first selected ones of the spaced apart lines from which at least some of the dummy dielectric layer has been removed, to electrically contact the integrated circuit between the first selected ones of the spaced apart lines.
