Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A structure and method is provided for fabricating isolated capacitors. The method includes simultaneously forming a plurality of deep trenches and one or more isolation trenches surrounding a group or array of the plurality of deep trenches through a SOI and doped poly layer, to an underlying insulator layer. The method further includes lining the plurality of deep trenches and one or more isolation trenches with an insulator material. The method further includes filling the plurality of deep trenches and one or more isolation trenches with a conductive material on the insulator material. The deep trenches form deep trench capacitors and the one or more isolation trenches form one or more isolation plates that isolate at least one group or array of the deep trench capacitors from another group or array of the deep trench capacitors.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed: 1. A structure, comprising: one or more groups of deep trench capacitors formed in an SOI and n+ doped poly layer, and comprising an insulator material between and in direct contact with the n+ doped poly layer and a conductive plate formed in a trench; and one or more deep trench isolation structures formed in the SOI and n+ doped poly layer, which isolate at least one of the one or more groups of deep trench capacitors from another group.…
