    Abstract: A memory system includes a memory array, a plurality of wordline drivers, a row address decoder block which has a plurality of outputs connected to selected ones of the wordline drivers, a row selector block which has a selector lines connected to individual ones of the wordline drivers. A power management circuit having a power down input for a power down input signal (WLPWRDN) and a wordline power down output (WLPDN) is connected to the wordline drivers to lower the power consumption thereof as a function of the power down input signal.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce an operation of several electrons entrapped at a barrier liner by setting a gate electrode arranged on a gate channel region to a longer length on an opposed sidewall than a width of a trench on an opposed sidewall and a length on a region between opposed sidewalls. SOLUTION: Gate electrodes 50 are arranged on a gate channel region 36. The electrodes 50 have width W extended on opposed sidewalls 51 of a trench and different lengths L1, L2 on opposed sidewalls 51. The length L1 on the sidewall of the trench is larger than that L2 on a region between the opposed sidewalls 51. Accordingly, a gate channel length is slightly increased on the sidewall 51 of the trench in such a manner that it is not increased on the region along the overall width of the gate channel. Thus, an operation of several electrons entrapped in a barrier liner can be reduced without influence to reaction to an MOSFET device performance.

    Abstract: A method of forming a trench structure that includes forming a metal containing layer on at least the sidewalls of a trench, and forming an undoped semiconductor fill material within the trench. The undoped semiconductor fill material and the metal containing layer are recessed to a first depth within the trench with a first etch. The undoped semiconductor fill material is then recessed to a second depth within the trench that is greater than a first depth with a second etch. The second etch exposes at least a sidewall portion of the metal containing layer. The trench is filled with a doped semiconductor containing material fill, wherein the doped semiconductor material fill is in direct contact with the at least the sidewall portion of the metal containing layer.

    Abstract: A method for preventing CMP-induced (chemical-mechanical polish) damage to a substrate disposed below a pad nitride layer of a mesa. The pad nitride layer is disposed below a conformally deposited dielectric layer. The dielectric layer is disposed below a conformally deposited polysilicon layer. The method includes planarizing the polysilicon layer down to at least a surface of the dielectric layer using the CMP to expose a first region of the dielectric layer. The method further includes etching partially through the first region of the dielectric layer using first etch parameters. The first etch parameters include an etchant source gas that is substantially selective to the pad nitride layer to prevent the pad nitride layer from being etched through even in the presence of a CMP defect. Additionally, there is also included removing the polysilicon layer after the etching partially through the first region of the dielectric layer.

    Abstract: A method of forming a trench structure that includes forming a metal containing layer 20 on at least the sidewalls of a trench 10, and forming an undoped semiconductor fill material 25 in the trench. The undoped semiconductor fill material and the metal containing layer are recessed to a second depth within the trench with a first etch. The undoped semiconductor fill material is then recessed to a first depth within the trench that is greater than a second depth with a second etch. The second etch exposes at least a sidewall portion of the metal containing layer. The trench is filled with a doped semiconductor containing material fill 35, wherein the doped semiconductor material fill is in direct contact with the at least the sidewall portion of the metal containing layer. In one embodiment a dielectric layer 15 is deposited before the metal contacting layer, the dielectric layer is also recessed. The trench may be formed in a semiconductor 4 on insulator 3 (SOI) structure placed on a base semiconductor 2 where the second depth is within the insulator layer and the first depth is within the base layer. The trench structure may be a capacitor in a memory device with the sidewalls and base of the trench forming the first electrode and the metal containing layer forming the second electrode, an access transistor may be included. In another embodiment the trench structure is a substrate through substrate via structure where the base is planarized to expose the undoped fill material, the metal layer and the dielectric layer, an electrical structure is then bonded to the metallic structure.
