Abstract :
The process technologies associated with fabricating trench isolation are discussed along with current process and device concerns. Potential development directions required for further refinements and diversification to satisfy future device designs are also considered. The following process elements are examined: trench formation, trench linear formation, trench filling, and surface replanarization
