发明名称 Method of forming a guard ring or contact to an SOI substrate
摘要 Embodiments of the present invention provide a microelectronic structure including a conductive element contacting a bulk semiconductor region of a substrate, the bulk semiconductor region being separated from a semiconductor-on-insulator (“SOI”) layer of the substrate by a buried dielectric layer. The microelectronic structure includes a trench isolation region overlying the buried dielectric layer, the trench isolation region sharing an edge with the SOI layer; a conformal layer overlying the trench isolation region, the conformal layer having a top surface and an opening defining a wall extending from the top surface towards the trench isolation region, the top surface including a lip portion adjacent to the wall; a dielectric layer overlying the top surface of the conformal layer; and a conductive element in conductive communication with the bulk semiconductor region, the conductive element consisting essentially of at least one of a semiconductor, a metal, and a conductive compound of a metal, and extending through the dielectric layer, the opening in the conformal layer, the trench isolation region, and the buried dielectric layer, and the conductive element contacting the lip portion.
