Abstract: A method of manufacturing a 3-D spiral stacked inductor is provided having a substrate with a plurality of turns in a plurality of levels wherein the number of levels increases from an inner turn to the outer turn of the inductor. First and second connecting portions are respectively connected to an inner turn and an outermost turn, and a dielectric material contains the first and second connecting portions and the plurality of turns over the substrate.

Abstract: A first method of reducing semiconductor device substrate effects comprising the following steps. O+or O2+are selectively implanted into a silicon substrate to form a silicon-damaged silicon oxide region. One or more devices are formed over the silicon substrate proximate the silicon-damaged silicon oxide region within at least one upper dielectric layer. A passivation layer is formed over the at least one upper dielectric layer. The passivation layer and the at least one upper dielectric layer are patterned to form a trench exposing a portion of the silicon substrate over the silicon-damaged silicon oxide region. The silicon-damaged silicon oxide region is selectively etched to form a channel continuous and contiguous with the trench whereby the channel reduces the substrate effects of the one or more semiconductor devices.
