Abstract
Methods of forming merged logic DRAM devices on silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafers having a relatively thick buried oxide region, where deep trenches are etched into the SOI substrate without etching through the buried oxide layer are provided. The methods of the present invention provide high performance SOI merged logic DRAM devices.
