  • Abstract
    In this paper, we discuss the HARPtrade (high aspect ratio process) 03/TEOS oxide film. A complete film property characterization is presented and a comparison with an HDP-CVD process is made. For 65 nm node and beyond, the HARP films can be used for multiple applications, including STI fill, PMD fill, and stress memorization.
