Abstract: Semiconductor single crystal substrate is made by forming an initial single crystal substrate (1) having lattice discontinuity locally on its surface, amorphizing the lattice around periphery of a recess formed at the discontinuity, depositing amorphous material the same as that of initial substrate on the obtained structure, and thermally annealing, to recrystallize the amorphous material. Production of a semiconductor single crystal substrate involves: (a) Forming an initial single crystal substrate (1), then successively depositing on the initial substrate (1) a first layer (2) of a first material and a second layer (3) of a second material, and etching a trench (4) which is subsequently filled with a filling material and which forms a lattice discontinuity in the single crystal lattice; (b) Performing selective etching with respect to the second layer (3), the first layer (2) and an upper part of the filling material of the trench (4), so as to form lateral cavities and a recess at the level of the single crystal discontinuity, and removing the second layer (3); (c) Amorphizing the single crystal lattice around the periphery of the recess; (d) Depositing a layer of amorphous material having the same chemical composition as that of the initial substrate (1) on the obtained structure; and (e) Thermally annealing the structure, in order to recrystallize the amorphous material so that it becomes continuous with the single crystal lattice of the initial substrate. The initial substrate is selected from silicon, germanium, silicon carbide, gallium arsenide, and an alloy containing at least some of these materials. The amorphization stage (c) involves localized ion implantation around the recess by using a mask. Amorphization is self-aligned on the trench (4). Either before or after stage (e), the surface of the structure is planarized, preferably by chemical-mechanical polishing. An Independent claim is given for an integrated circuit comprising a single crystal silicon substrate produced by the above process, and comprising at least two adjacent transistors produced in the body of the substrate that includes at least one buried trench forming an isolating trench separating the buried layers adjacent to the transistors.

Abstract: DRAM memory cell is made by forming an initial single crystal substrate having a trench capacitor that forms a crystal lattice discontinuity, amorphizing the lattice around periphery of a recess formed at the discontinuity, depositing amorphous material the same as that of initial substrate on obtained structure, thermally annealing, and forming an access transistor in contact with the trench. Fabrication of an integrated circuit comprising a semiconductor substrate (SB) supporting a DRAM memory cell comprising an access transistor (T) and a storage capacitor (TRC) comprises: (a) Producing an initial substrate having a local trench capacitor containing a polycrystalline filling material that emerges from the surface of the initial substrate and forms a discontinuity of the crystal lattice; (b) Forming a recess in the initial substrate at the level of the trench; (c) Amorphizing, locally and self-aligned on the trench, the single crystal lattice of the substrate at the periphery of the recess and the part of the filling material that emerges from the trench; (d) Depositing on the obtained structure a layer of amorphous material having the same chemical composition as that of the initial substrate; (e) Thermally annealing the obtained structure, in order to recrystallize the amorphous material so that it becomes continuous with the single crystal lattice of the initial substrate; and (f) Epitaxially growing an upper layer of the substrate, in and on which is produced an access transistor (T) whose source (S) or drain (D) region contacts the trench capacitor forming the storage capacitor (TRC) of the DRAM memory cell. The initial substrate production stage (a) involves successively depositing on the initial substrate a first layer of a first material and a second layer of a second material, and etching a trench, which is subsequently filled with a filling material. The recess forming stage (b) involves performing selective etching with respect to the second layer, the first layer and an upper part of the filling material of the trench, so as to form lateral cavities and a recess at the level of the single crystal discontinuity, and removing the second layer. The amorphization stage (c) involves localized ion implantation around the recess by using a mask. Either before or after stage (e), the surface of the structure is planarized, preferably by chemical-mechanical polishing. An Independent claim is given for an integrated circuit fabricated by the above process and supporting a DRAM memory cell comprising a transistor (T) and a storage capacitor (TRC).
