Abstract: A method for forming a semiconductor structure. Two isolation structures are formed in a semiconductor. A cavity is etched in the semiconductor between the two isolation structures in the semiconductor. Dopants are implanted into a bottom side of the cavity to form a doped region in the semiconductor below the cavity between the two isolation structures. A contact is formed in the cavity. The contact is on the doped region and in direct contact with the doped region.

Abstract: A method for etching features into an etch layer disposed below a photoresist mask without an intermediate hardmask is provided. A plurality of etch cycles are provided. Each etch cycle comprises providing a deposition etch phase that etches features into the etch layer and deposits polymer on sidewalls of the features and over the photoresist and providing a cleaning phase that removes polymer deposited on the sidewalls.

Abstract: A method providing features in a dielectric layer is provided. A sacrificial layer is formed over the dielectric layer. A set of sacrificial layer features is etched into the sacrificial layer. A first set of dielectric layer features is etched into the dielectric layer through the sacrificial layer. The first set of dielectric layer features and the set of sacrificial layer features are filled with a filler material. The sacrificial layer is removed. The widths of the spaces between the parts of the filler material are shrunk with a shrink sidewall deposition. A second set of dielectric layer features is etched into the dielectric layer through the shrink sidewall deposition. The filler material and shrink sidewall deposition are removed.
