发明名称 Method for forming an air gap around a through-silicon via
摘要 Semiconductor devices with air gaps around the through-silicon via are formed. Embodiments include forming a first cavity in a substrate, filling the first cavity with a sacrificial material, forming a second cavity in the substrate, through the sacrificial material, by removing a portion of the sacrificial material and a portion of the substrate below the sacrificial material, filling the second cavity with a conductive material, removing a remaining portion of the sacrificial material to form an air gap between the conductive material and the substrate, and forming a cap over the air gap.

主权项 1. A method comprising: forming a first cavity in a substrate; filling the first cavity with a sacrificial material; lining the first cavity with an oxide material prior to filling the first cavity with the sacrificial material; forming a second cavity in the substrate, through the sacrificial material and the oxide material, by removing a portion of the sacrificial material, a portion of the oxide material, and a portion of the substrate below the sacrificial material; filling the second cavity with a conductive material; removing a remaining portion of the sacrificial material to form an air gap between the conductive material and the substrate; and forming a cap over the air gap.
