A trench capacitor manufacturing method is provided. The method includes forming a deep trench in a wafer, forming a trench capacitor structure including a plurality of dielectric films and a plurality of conductive layers in the deep trench; determining if the wafer has a tensile stress based on the forming of the trench capacitor structure; performing a high temperature heat treatment to the trench capacitor structure to change a form of the wafer to a direction that offsets the tensile stress; forming an inter-layer insulating film on the trench capacitor structure; and forming a metal interconnect on the inter-layer insulating film.

Method of manufacturing a trench capacitor with wafer bow

A manufacturing method for a deep trench, the method includes forming a first trench in a substrate and performing a first cycle and a second cycle. Each comprising performing a passivation operation forming a passivation film on a sidewall and a bottom surface of the first trench, performing a first etching with a first bias power to remove the passivation film formed on the bottom surface of the first trench to expose the bottom surface of the first trench, and performing a second etching with a second bias power etching the exposed bottom surface of the first trench to form a second trench disposed below the first trench. The first bias power and the second bias power in the second cycle is greater than the first bias power and the second bias power in the first cycle, respectively.
