Title:
METHODS FOR FORMING DRAM DEVICES WITHOUT TRENCH FILL VOIDS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/077525
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are approaches for forming dynamic DRAM devices without trench fill voids. A method may include providing a plurality of trenches in a substrate, the plurality of trenches defining a plurality of device structures, and depositing a plurality of layers over the device structures. The layers may include a first layer over the device structures, a second layer over the first layer, and a third layer over the second layer. The method may further include forming a plurality of contact trenches through the plurality of layers to expose one or more device structures of the plurality of device structures, and directing ions into a sidewall of the trenches at a non-zero angle, wherein the ions impact the third layer without impacting the second layer. The method may further include forming a fill material within the trenches after the ions are directed into the sidewall of the trenches.
