Abstract :
The present paper proposes a new trench type cell, which has an advantage of realizing long retention time distribution, and also which is suitable for realizing first access speed characteristics because the DST cell has the larger cell capacitance, the smaller cell leakage current and the smaller parasitic resistance.
