摘要： A method of forming at least one deep trench structure having an increased trench depth is provided. The method includes providing at least one deep trench having sidewalls that extend to a common bottom wall in a surface of a substrate. Each deep trench has initial dimensions that are wider than targeted dimensions for the deep trenches. To reduce the initial dimensions to that of the targeted dimensions, an epitaxial silicon film is formed selectively or non-selectively on at least some portions of the sidewalls using a low-temperature ultra-high vacuum epitaxial silicon growth tehnique.

摘要： A method of etching a deep, high aspect ratio opening in a silicon substrate includes etching the substrate with a first plasma formed using a first gaseous mixture including a bromine containing gas, an oxygen containing gas and a first fluorine containing gas. The etching process with the first gaseous mixture produces a sidewall passivating deposit, which builds up near the opening entrance. To reduce this buildup, and to increase the average etching rate, the sidewall passivating deposit is periodically thinned by forming a second plasma using a mixture containing silane and a second fluorine containing gas. The substrate remains in the same plasma reactor chamber during the entire process and the plasma is continuously maintained during the thinning step. Holes of a depth greater than 40 times the width may be produced using repeated cycles of etching and thinning.

摘要： A “wafer-less” etch chamber cleaning method varies the capacitance applied to radio frequency components of the chuck that is within the etch chamber (varies impedance of the chuck) so as to cause electric field lines within the etch chamber to terminate (bend) away from the chuck. Then the etch chamber can be cleaned using a very aggressive etch chemistry (e.g., NF3) that would otherwise damage the chuck; however, the electric field lines protect the chuck from the etch chemistry. The capacitance is varied according to a pre-established model. Further, the process evaluates the effectiveness of the pre-established model to produce feedback and constantly adjusts the pre-established model to increase the effectiveness of the cleaning process (according to the feedback).

摘要： An organic planarizing layer (OPL) is formed atop a semiconductor substrate which includes a plurality of gate lines thereon. Each gate line includes at least a high k gate dielectric and a metal gate. A patterned photoresist having at least one pattern formed therein is then positioned atop the OPL. The at least one pattern in the photoresist is perpendicular to each of the gate lines. The pattern is then transferred by etching into the OPL and portions of each of the underlying gate lines to provide a plurality of gate stacks each including at least a high k gate dielectric portion and a metal gate portion. The patterned photoresist and the remaining OPL layer are then removed utilizing a sequence of steps including first contacting with a first acid, second contacting with an aqueous cerium-containing solution, and third contacting with a second acid.

摘要： A method of manufacturing a resistive semiconductor memory device (100), comprising depositing an insulating layer (132) over a workpiece (30), and defining a pattern for a plurality of alignment marks (128) and a plurality of conductive lines (112) within the insulating layer (132). A conductive material is deposited over the wafer to fill the alignment mark (128) and conductive line (112) patterns. The insulating layer (132) top surface is chemically-mechanically polished to remove excess conductive material from the insulating layer (132) and form conductive lines (112), while leaving conductive material remaining within the alignment marks (128). A masking layer (140) is formed over the conductive lines (112), and at least a portion of the conductive material is removed from within the alignment marks (128). The alignment marks (128) are used for alignment of subsequently deposited layers of the resistive memory device (100).
