Definitions
- the invention relates to a memory cell which has the following features:
- a selection transistor a selection transistor; a storage capacitor connected to the selection transistor and containing a storage dielectric,
- Such memory cells have long been known in a wide variety of designs for use in read / write memories.
- a problem with increasing integration density and the associated reduction in size of the memory cells is always the integration of the storage capacitors, the dimensions of which, owing to the capacities to be retained and the dielectric constant of the storage dielectric remaining approximately the same, were not allowed to decrease as much as the dimensions of the selection transistors.
- This problem appears to be solved by the use of paraelectric or ferroelectric substances such as perovskite-like materials as the storage dielectric, which have a very large dielectric constant (up to 400) and therefore allow the dimensions of the storage capacitors to be reduced while maintaining the capacitance.
- a deposition temperature is required for the deposition of the above-mentioned paraelectric or ferroelectric substances, which is above the melting temperature of aluminum, which is used as the preferred metal for metallizing a structure from selection transistors, so that the metallization of the structure from selection transistors takes place only after the storage capacitors have been completed can. Therefore, completely prefabricated structures made of selection transistors cannot be used to apply the storage capacitors.
- the aim of the invention is to develop the memory cell mentioned at the outset in such a way that, despite the use of a paraelectric or ferroelectric substance as the storage dielectric, it is simple to manufacture without the above-mentioned. To have disadvantages and to specify a method for their production.
- the storage dielectric is a polymer
- the deposition temperatures of the polymers which are suitable as storage dielectrics for the storage cell described are considerably lower than the melting temperature of, for example, aluminum. It is therefore in the manufacture of memory arrays that are made up of a number of those described above. benen memory cells exist, possible to apply the storage capacitors on completely prefabricated structures from selection transistors and thus to simplify the manufacturing process or to make it less critical with regard to contamination effects.
- a subset of the polymers which have paraelectric or ferroelectric properties are copolymers which are therefore suitable as a storage dielectric, as proposed in one embodiment of the invention.
- the area of use of the memory cells according to the invention coincides with the area of use of previous memory cells, so that one
- DRAM Dynamic Random Access Memory
- ROM Read Only Memory
- the polymers nylon 11, nylon 9, nylon 7 or nylon 5 can, for example, as provided in one embodiment of the invention, be used as storage dielectrics with ferroelectric properties.
- a further embodiment of the invention provides that the copolymers vinylidene fluoride or trifluoroethylene are used as storage dielectrics with ferroelectric properties.
- the structures of the storage capacitors used are not limited when using polymers or copolymers as storage dielectrics compared to previously known capacitor structures.
- One embodiment of the invention thus provides for the storage capacitors to be designed as stacked capacitors. ren, in this embodiment a plurality of layers of conductive material and storage dielectric are alternately arranged above the selection transistor.
- a further embodiment provides for the capacitors to be designed as trench capacitors, the storage capacitor being arranged in a pot-like manner on one level above the selection transistor.
- a further embodiment provides for the storage capacitor to be designed as a fin capacitor or fin-stacked capacitor.
- the capacitor here has a structure as described, for example, in US Pat. No. 5,290,726.
- Embodiments are the subject of claims 10 or 11.
- the two electrodes and the storage dielectric of the storage capacitor are deposited in several steps over the selection transistor, wherein the structure of the selection transistors is preferably metallized before deposition of the respective storage capacitors.
- FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of a memory cell according to the invention in cross section.
- storage capacitor 4 is arranged as a trench capacitor above a selection transistor 2, a first electrode 8 of the storage capacitor 4 being conductively connected to a first connection 3 of the selection transistor.
- the first electrode 8 covers the entire surface of a pot-like depression 7 in a first main area 5 above the selection transistor 2 and sections of the first main surface 5 adjacent to the pot-like depression 7.
- a storage dielectric 6 is arranged above the first electrode 8 of the storage capacitor 4 and covered by a second electrode 10.
- a polymer e.g. B. used a copolymer. This polymer can have ferroelectric or paraelectric properties.
- a polymer z. B. nylon 11, nylon 9, nylon 7 or nylon 5 or vinylidene fluoride or trifluoroethylene can be used.
