Abstract
A memory cell having a low storage node resistance and a method of manufacturing the same are provided. A trench type memory cell, in addition to storage node polysilicon, has other conductive material embedded in the storage node. Conductive material may be one of WSi, TiSi, W, Ti, and TiN. The additional conductive material provides a low storage node resistance which facilitates the realization of 256 Mbit memory cells and beyond.
