Increased capacitance trench capacitor

摘要

Disclosed is a method of increasing the capacitance of a trench capacitor by increasing sidewall area, comprising: forming a trench in a silicon substrate, the trench having a sidewall; forming islands on the sidewall of the trench; and etching pits into the sidewall using the islands as a mask. The capacitor is completed by forming a node insulator on said on the pits and the sidewall; and filling said trench with a trench conductor.
