Shallow Trench Isolation(STI) is widely used in advanced CMOS technologies. This paper describes a shallow trench isolation for 0.13μm CMOS technologies development which utilizes AMAT Ultima Plus High Density Plasma (HDP) CVD oxide process to fill 0.18μm wide and 0.5μm deep trenches with void free. Through optimizing source/bias RF power, process gas flow and cross section verification, as a result, we got a robust gap-fill recipe with void free.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
