Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and a structure for a vertical DRAM device having a self-aligning function of shaping upper trench. SOLUTION: The method and the structure of a memory storage cell in a semiconductor substrate include forming of a dopant source material, covering a lower portion of a deep trench formed in the substrate. The upper portion of the trench is generally shaped into a rectangular form, and an embedded electrode plate of a trench capacitor by annealing the dopant source material. The embedded electrode plate is self-aligned, with respect to the shaped upper-portion of the trench. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for forming a buried plate in a trench capacitor, thereby overcoming limitation in the conventional method. SOLUTION: A dopant source material such as ASG is completely filled into a trench. Next, a recess is formed on this dopant source material, and a collar material is deposited thereon. Thus, a collar is formed on the upper side portion of the trench. After the buried plate is formed through drive-in of the dopant, the dopant source material is removed and the collar material may be removed. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
