    摘要: An insulating layer is formed over a first substrate. Trenches are formed within a second substrate, and those trenches are filled with an insulating layer. The two substrate are bonded at their insulating layers. The portion of the second substrate away from the trenches is removed to form semiconductor regions over the insulating layer of the first substrate. Embodiments of the present invention allow better thickness control for SOI regions and lower leakage current compared to SOI layers that use LOCOS-type field isolation.

    摘要: An input/output protection device for an integrated circuit is formed using a trench (22). A first electrode region (46) is formed adjacent a first portion of the trench sidewall (24), and a second electrode region (48) is formed adjacent a second portion of the trench sidewall (24). One of the electrode regions is then electrically coupled to an input/output pad, while the other electrode region is electrically coupled to ground. Excessive voltages on the input/output pad are then discharged when the electrode, which is electrically coupled to the input/output pad, punches through to the electrode that is electrically coupled to ground.

    摘要: An interconnect structure has a substrate having devices already formed thereon. A dielectric layer covers over the substrate. A conductive structure having at least two substructure separated by an air gap is formed on the dielectric layer. A capping layer covers the conductive structure and the air gap. The capping layer at a portion above the air gap also fills into the air gap by a predetermined distance. The air gap may also extend into the dielectric layer to have a greater height. An etching stop layer is formed on the capping layer. An inter-metal dielectric layer is formed on the etching stop layer. The inter-metal dielectric layer, the etching stop layer and the capping layer are patterned to form an opening that exposes a top surface of the conductive structure. The opening may also expose a top portion of a sidewall of the conductive structure if a misalignment occurs, but the opening does not expose the air gap due to protection from the predetermined distance of the capping layer within the air gap. A next level of conductive structure can be formed to fill the opening. A liner layer can be also formed on a sidewall of the substructure interfacing the air gap, so as to protect the conductive structure.

    摘要: A method of gap filling by using HDPCVD. On a substrate having a conductive structure, a first oxide layer is formed to protect the conductive structure. While forming the first oxide layer no bias is applied. An argon flow with a high speed of etching/deposition is provided to form a second oxide layer. While forming the second oxide layer a triangular or trapezium profile is formed due to an etching effect to the corner. An argon flow with a low speed of etching/deposition is provided to form a third oxide layer. The gap filling is completed.

    摘要: A method of fabricating a dual gate of embedded DRAM forms a conductive layer on a substrate having a memory cell region and a logic circuitry. A gate structure is then formed on the substrate of the memory cell region and the conductive layer of the logic circuitry is removed by patterning the conductive layer. A polysilicon layer is then deposited and a dual gate structure is formed by patterning the polysilicon layer, and simultaneously, a polysilicon spacer is formed on the sidewall of the gate structure in the logic circuitry. The polysilicon spacer is then removed. An insulated spacer is formed on the sidewall of the gate structure and the dual gate structure, and a silicide layer is formed on the dual gate structure and the exposed substrate of the logic circuitry.

    摘要: An SRAM cell having improved stability includes pass transistors having gate electrodes which are shaped by oxidation so that the lower edges of the gate electrodes are raised away from the substrate surface. Because the gate electrodes of the load and pull-down transistors are masked during the oxidation process, the gate electrodes of the load and pull-down transistors have the conventional rectangular shape. The modified shape of the gate electrodes of the pass transistors decreases the current flowing through the pass transistors relative to that which flows through the pull-down transistors, reducing the likelihood that data can inadvertently be lost from the SRAM cell.
