Method and structure for forming trench DRAM with asymmetric strap

Abstract

A method of forming a trench device structure having a single-side buried strap is provided. The method includes forming a deep trench in a semiconductor substrate, said deep trench having a first side portion and a second side portion; depositing a node dielectric on said deep trench, wherein said node dielectric covers said first side portion and said second side portion; depositing a first conductive layer over said node dielectric; performing an ion implantation or ion bombardment at an angle into a portion of said node dielectric, thereby removing said portion of said node dielectric from said first side portion of said deep trench; and depositing a second conductive layer over said first conductive layer, wherein said second conductive layer outdiffuses into a portion of said semiconductor substrate. A trench device structure having a single-side buried strap is also provided. The device structure includes a semiconductor substrate having a deep trench therein; and a first conductive layer and a second conductive layer sequentially disposed on said deep trench, wherein said second conductive layer outdiffuses into a portion of said semiconductor substrate.
