Method and installation for fabricating one-sided buried straps

摘要

Buried straps are produced on one side in deep trench structures. A PVD process is used to deposit masking material in the recess inclined at an angle. As a result, a masking wedge is produced on the buried strap, on one side in the base region of the recess. The masking wedge serves as a mask during a subsequent anisotropic etching step, which is carried out selectively with respect to the masking wedge, for removing the buried strap on one side.
