    摘要: A microelectronic device includes a buried trench capacitor below an electronic component of the microelectronic device. In one embodiment, the buried trench capacitor may be formed between a silicon oxide capped p-type buried trench capacitor polysilicon region and a buried trench capacitor deep n-type region separated by buried trench capacitor liner dielectric. In a second embodiment, the buried trench capacitor may be formed by a buried trench capacitor polysilicon region and a p-type silicon epitaxial region separated by a buried trench capacitor liner dielectric. One terminal of the deep trench capacitor is made through the substrate via a deep trench substrate contact. The second terminal of the deep trench capacitor is made via a well contact that connects to the capacitor through a deep well region in one embodiment and through a polysilicon layer in a second embodiment.

    摘要: An integrated circuit (IC) includes a semiconductor surface layer of a substrate including circuitry formed in the semiconductor surface layer configured together with a Metal-Insulator-Metal (MIM) capacitor. A multi-layer metal stack on the semiconductor surface layer includes a bottom plate contact metal layer including a bottom capacitor plate contact. A first interlevel dielectric (ILD) layer is over the bottom plate contact metal layer. The MIM capacitor includes a trench in the first ILD layer over the bottom capacitor plate contact, wherein the trench is lined by a bottom capacitor plate with a capacitor dielectric layer thereon, and a top capacitor plate on the capacitor dielectric layer. A fill material fills the trench to form a filled trench. A second ILD layer is over the filled trench. A filled via through the second ILD layer provides a connection to the top capacitor plate.

    摘要: A method of forming a semiconductor device includes forming source regions and drain regions in a semiconductor substrate, and a gate electrode over said semiconductor substrate and between said source and drain regions. The gate electrode is formed from a first semiconductor gate electrode layer deposited on said gate dielectric layer at a first substrate temperature. A second semiconductor gate electrode layer is deposited on the first semiconductor gate electrode layer at a second substrate temperature greater than said first temperature. The two gate electrode layers may be annealed to form a homogenous polycrystalline layer with improved grain size distribution, thereby improving transistor matching in a semiconductor device.
