Abstract
A method for manufacturing a deep trench capacitor, which includes forming a layer of silicon nitride over a silicon substrate, depositing a layer of borosilicate glass having a predetermined thickness over the layer of silicon nitride, patterning and defining the layer of borosilicate glass to expose two regions of the silicon substrate separated by a sacrificial mask, wherein the sacrificial mask includes the layer of borosilicate glass and the layer of silicon nitride, etching the two regions of the silicon substrate to form two trenches, wherein the predetermined thickness of the layer of borosilicate glass allows the sacrificial mask and a portion of the silicon substrate beneath the sacrificial mask to be removed, depositing a layer of silicon nitride on the sidewalls of the trenches, and depositing doped polysilicon into the trenches to form a single capacitor.
