Semiconductor constructions, and methods of forming semiconductor constructions

摘要

The invention includes an array of devices and a charge pump supported by a semiconductive material substrate. A damage region is under the array, and extends less than or equal to 50% of a distance between the array and the charge pump. The invention also includes a method in which a mask is formed over a monocrystalline silicon substrate. A neutral-conductivity-type dopant is implanted through an opening in the mask and into a section of the substrate to produce a damage region. A first boundary extends around the damage region. The masking layer is removed, and epitaxial silicon is formed over the substrate. An array of devices is formed to be supported by the epitaxial silicon. The array is bounded by a second boundary. The first boundary extends less than or equal to 100 microns beyond the second boundary.
