Abstract:
A wide trench having a width W1 and narrow trenches having a width W2 that is less than W1 are formed in a dielectric layer, the wide trench extending deeper in outer regions than in a central region. A trench modification step changes the width of the wide trench and reduces a depth difference between the outer regions and the central region of the wide trench.
