Abstract:
A memory cell having a trench capacitor, a trench capacitor, and a method is disclosed. In one embodiment, the method for fabricating a trench capacitor with a first capacitor electrode, a first capacitor dielectric, a second capacitor electrode, a second capacitor dielectric and third capacitor electrode, includes connecting the first and third capacitor electrodes. The first and third capacitor electrodes are formed by conformal deposition methods, whereas the first capacitor dielectric, the second capacitor electrode and the second capacitor dielectric are formed by nonconformal deposition methods.
Abstract:
The method involves producing a conductive layer (8) on a dielectric layer (11) with opening areas above a conducting path (3) and above capacitor electrodes (7). The dielectric layer is selectively etched to the conductive layer for forming trenches that are partially dissected in a surface of the conducting path and ends in the conductive layer above the capacitor electrodes. The trenches are filled with conductive material. An independent claim is also included for a semiconductor device e.g. semiconductor memory device.
Abstract:
The component has a substrate at a main side, where lower bit lines (LBL1- LBL6) are formed in the substrate and are arranged parallel to each other at a distance. Word lines (WL1- WL10) are arranged over the lower bit lines parallel to each other at a distance and transverse to the lower bit lines. A gate-dielectric arranged between the word lines and cell bodies includes a memory layer as a memory medium. Lower source and/or drain regions are formed at lower lines of the bodies adjacent to the lower bit lines, and upper source and/or drain regions are formed in upper lines of the bodies. An independent claim is also included for a method for manufacturing semiconductor memory components.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for fabricating a shadow mask in a trench of a microelectronic or micromechanical structure, comprising the steps of: providing a trench in the microelectronic or micromechanical structure; providing a partial filling in the trench; providing a first liner mask layer on the partial filling; providing a sacrificial filling on the liner mask layer to completely fill the trench; shallow etching back of the sacrificial filling into the trench; forming a first mask on the top side of the sacrificial filling in the trench; removing a subregion of the sacrificial filling in the trench using the first mask; and optionally removing a subregion of the first liner mask layer below it on the partial filling, the remaining subregion of the sacrificial filling in the trench serving as a second mask.
