Semiconductor structures having deep trench capacitor and methods for manufacturing the same

Abstract

A semiconductor structure and a method for forming the same are provided. The semiconductor structure includes a substrate having a first surface, a plurality of layers disposed on the first surface of the substrate. The plurality of layers includes a first nitride layer disposed on the first surface of the substrate, a first silicon-containing layer disposed on the first nitride layer, an intermediate nitride layer disposed on the first silicon-containing layer, a second silicon-containing layer disposed on the intermediate nitride layer, and a second nitride layer disposed on the second silicon-containing layer. In addition, the semiconductor structure includes a trench capacitor penetrating the plurality of layers and in contact with the substrate. The trench capacitor has a first portion having a first lateral surface and a second portion having a second lateral surface, and the first lateral surface has a slope different from that of the second lateral surface.
