  • Publication number: 20250063743
    Abstract: Some implementations described herein provide techniques and apparatuses for an integrated circuit device including a trench capacitor structure that has a merged region. A material filling the merged region is different than a material that is included in electrode layers of the trench capacitor structure. Furthermore, the material filling the merged region includes a coefficient of thermal expansion and a modulus of elasticity that, in combination with the architecture of the trench capacitor structure, reduce thermally induced stresses and/or strains within the integrated circuit device relative to another integrated circuit device having a trench capacitor structure including a merged region and electrode layers of a same material.
