Method for making a high capacitance multi-level storage node for high density TFT load SRAMS with low soft error rates

摘要

A method for making high capacitance multi-level storage node contact is proposed for high density SRAMs. The proposed contact connects several poly levels to diffusion and to a trench capacitor, in one contact. The high storage node capacitance provided by the trench capacitor substantially reduces the soft error rate probability of the cell. The use of a single contact to connect several levels reduces the area. The contact preferably uses TiN as a barrier layer to reduce dopant diffusion between different poly layers.
