    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new deep trench(DT) collar process which reduces disturbance of strap diffusion to an array metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor(MOSFET) of a semiconductor device. SOLUTION: By this method, an oxidation barrier layer is formed on a sidewall of the DT provided in the semiconductor substrate, a photoresist layer of specific depth is provided in the trench to remove the oxidation barrier layer to specific depth and expose the trench sidewall, and the remaining photoresist is removed. A layer of a silicon material is stuck on the exposed trench sidewall, and a dielectric layer is formed on the silicon material layer to form a collar. The remaining oxidation barrier layer is removed from the trench and polysilicon which forms a storage node is charged. Consequently, the distance between a MOSFET gate and a DT storage capacitor is maximized, and the effective edge bias of the DT at its peak is reducible without spoiling the storage capacity.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To simultaneously form a line interconnection of a bit line or the like and borderless contact to a diffused part such as bit line contact. SOLUTION: A semiconductor substrate contains a previously patterned gate stack 12 on the substrate, is covered with a first dielectric substance 40 for forming a first level 42 and then deposited with a second dielectric substance 44 to form a second level 46. A line interconnection opening 62 is formed at a second level 46 by a lithography and etching. The etching is continued to a microcrystallized region of an array region 30 of the substrate, and formed with a borderless contact opening between the gate stacks 12 corresponding to the line interconnection such as an opening of the bit line or the like. These openings are filled with one or more conductors to form the contact with the diffused part such as bit line contact or the like corresponding to the line interconnection of the bit line or the like.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To achieve low capacitance and low resistance by simultaneously performing the pattern formation of a via and a grooved line in an interlayer dielectric, by simultaneously etching the via and the grooved line, and by simultaneously filling the via and the grooved line with metal. SOLUTION: On a substrate, desired linear features and vertical interconnection are formed (S700). A grooved line and a via are simultaneously etched (S701). A metallization layer is subjected pattern formation by lithography, and is etched by RIE or the like (S702). The via and the grooved line are filled by the same metallization process (S703). The filled via and the grooved line are finished by one-time common etching or polishing process so that a structure has a flat and uniform upper surface (S704). As a result, both of low-capacitance and low-resistance metallization can be formed.

    Abstract: A memory cell structure uses field-effect controlled majority carrier depletion of a buried strap region for controlling the access to a trench-cell capacitor. The buried strap connection between the trench capacitor and the bitline contact (CB) in regions where the deep trench pattern intersects the active area of the device. The upper section of the trench contains a single crystalline material to minimize the amount of leakage. The memory cell structure includes a field-effect switch having a gate terminal which induces the depletion region in the substrate and the top of the trench, the extent of the depletion region varying as a function of a voltage applied to the gate terminal; a storage device that includes an isolation collar (400) and a capacitor, the depletion region overlapping the isolation collar when the field-effect switch is in an off- state, and the depletion region does not overlap the isolation collar when the field effect switch is in an on-state.

    Abstract: A dynamic random access memory is formed in a silicon chip in arrays of clusters, each of four cells in a single active area. Each active area is cross-shaped with vertical trenches at the four ends of the two crossbars. The central region of the active area where the two crossbars intersect serves as the common base region of the four transistors of the cluster. The top of the base region serves as a common drain for the four transistors and each transistor has a separate channel along the wall of its associated vertical trench that provides its storage capacitor. Each cluster includes a common bit line and four separate word-line contacts.

    Abstract: Trench capacitors are fabricated utilizing a method which results in a refractory metal salicide as a component of the trench electrode in a lower region of the trench. The salicide-containing trench electrode exhibits reduced series resistance compared to conventional trench electrodes of similar dimensions, thereby enabling reduced ground rule memory cell leats and/or reduced cell access time. The trench capacitors of the invention are especially useful as components of DRAM memory cells.
