    • A method of forming a semiconductor device includes providing a semiconductor device including a conductor formed thereon. A dielectric layer is formed over the conductor and a recess is formed in the dielectric layer by removing a portion of the dielectric layer to expose at least a portion of the conductor. A first layer of aluminum is deposited over the top surface of the dielectric, along the sidewalls of the dielectric layer and over the exposed portion of the conductor without altering the temperature of the semiconductor device. A second layer of aluminum is deposited over the first layer of aluminum at a temperature greater than about 300° C. A third layer of aluminum is deposited over the second layer of aluminum so as to completely fill the recess in the dielectric layer. The third layer of aluminum is slow deposited at a temperature greater than about 300° C.

    • A method for forming isolation trenches for a semiconductor device forms, in a substrate, a plurality of trenches having different widths including widths above a threshold size and widths below a threshold size. The plurality of trenches have a same first depth. A masking layer is deposited in the plurality of trenches, the masking layer has a thickness sufficient to both line the trenches with the widths above the threshold size and completely fill the trenches with the widths below the threshold size. A portion of the substrate is exposed at a bottom of the trenches with the widths above the threshold size by etching the masking layer. The plurality of trenches is etched to extend the trenches with the widths above the threshold size to different depths.

    • A method for fabricating a self-aligned contact in an integrated circuit includes defining first spacer layers over the sidewalls of a pair of wordline stacks. An oxide layer is deposited over the tops of the wordline stacks, the first spacer layers and a surface of the substrate disposed between the first spacer layers. The oxide layer is removed from the first spacer layers, thereby forming a remaining oxide layer that covers the surface of the substrate disposed between the first spacer layers. Second spacer layers are formed over the first spacer layers, and which cover respective portions of the remaining oxide layer. The remaining oxide layer is removed to thereby form undercut regions. The undercut regions are substantially filled with contact material during formation of the contact.

    • Processing of a DRAM device containing vertical MOSFET arrays proceeds through planarization of the array gate conductor (GC) polysilicon of the vertical MOSFET to the top surface of the top oxide. A thin polysilicon layer is deposited over the planarized surface and an active area (M) pad nitride and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) stack is deposited. The M mask is used to open the pad layer to the silicon surface, and shallow trench isolation (STI) etching is used to form isolation trenches. An AA oxidation is performed, the isolation trenches are filled with high density plasma (HDP) oxide and planarized to the top surface of the AA pad nitride. Following isolation trench (IT) planarization, the AA pad nitride is stripped, with the thin silicon layer serving as an etch stop protecting the underlying top oxide. The etch support (ES) nitride liner is deposited, and the ES mask is patterned to open the support areas. The ES nitride, thin polysilicon layer and top oxide are etched from the exposed areas. A sacrificial oxidation is applied along with well implants, support gate oxidation and support gate polysilicon deposition. Using the etch array (EA) mask, the support gate polysilicon is opened in the array. The ES nitride is removed selective to the underlying silicon layer, protecting the top oxide. The gate stack is deposited and patterned and the process continues to completion.

    • A process for prohibiting amino group transport from the top surface of a layered semiconductor wafer to a photoresist layer introduces a thin film oxynitride over the silicon nitride layer using a high temperature step of nitrous oxide (N2O) plus oxygen (O2) at approximately 300° C. for about 50 to 120 seconds. By oxidizing the silicon nitride layer, the roughness resulting from the adverse affects of amino group transport eliminated. Moreover, this high temperature step, non-plasma process can be used with the more advanced 193 nanometer technology, and is not limited to the 248 nanometer technology. A second method for exposing the silicon nitride layer to an oxidizing ambient, prior to the application of antireflective coating, introduces a mixture of N2H2 and oxygen (O2) ash at a temperature greater than or equal to 250° C. for approximately six minutes. This is followed by an O2 plasma clean and/or an Ozone clean, and then the subsequent layering of the ARC and photoresist.

    • A structure and method which enables the deposit of a thin nitride liner just before Trench Top Oxide TTO (High Density Plasma) HDP deposition during the formation of a vertical MOSFET DRAM cell device. This liner is subsequently removed after TTO sidewall etch. One function of this liner is to protect the collar oxide from being etched during the TTO oxide sidewall etch and generally provides lateral etch protection which is not realized in the current processing scheme. The process sequence does not rely on previously deposited films for collar protection, and decouples TTO sidewall etch protection from previous processing steps to provide additional process flexibility, such as allowing a thinner strap Cut Mask nitride and greater nitride etching during node nitride removal and buried strap nitrided interface removal. Advantageously, the presence of the nitride liner beneath the TTO reduces possibility of TTO dielectric breakdown between the gate and capacitor node electrode of the vertical MOSFET DRAM cell, while assuring strap diffusion to gate conductor overlap.
    • 在垂直MOSFET DRAM单元器件形成期间,能够在沟槽顶氧化物TTO(高密度等离子体)HDP沉积之前沉积薄氮化物衬垫的结构和方法。 随后在TTO侧壁蚀刻之后移除该衬垫。 该衬垫的一个功能是在TTO氧化物侧壁蚀刻期间保护套环氧化物不被蚀刻,并且通常提供在当前处理方案中未实现的横向蚀刻保护。 工艺顺序不依赖于以前沉积的膜用于套环保护,并且将TTO侧壁蚀刻保护与先前的处理步骤解耦以提供附加的工艺灵活性,例如在节点氮化物去除期间允许更薄的带切割掩模氮化物和更大的氮化物蚀刻和掩埋带 氮化界面去除。 有利地,在TTO之下的氮化物衬垫的存在降低了垂直MOSFET DRAM单元的栅极和电容器节点电极之间的TTO介质击穿的可能性,同时确保带扩散到栅极导体重叠。
