Circuits with a trench capacitor having micro-roughened semiconductor surfaces

摘要

A method for forming a trench capacitor. The method includes forming a trench in a semiconductor substrate. A conformal layer of semiconductor material is deposited in the trench. The surface of the conformal layer of semiconductor material is roughened. An insulator layer is formed outwardly from the roughened, conformal layer of semiconductor material. A polycrystalline semiconductor plate is formed outwardly from the insulator layer in the trench.
