Abstract: Technologies for fabricating a vertical dynamic random access memory (DRAM) structure include forming a DRAM cell hole through a word line layer and an associated substrate such that a first section of the DRAM cell hole extends through the word line layer and a second section of the DRAM cell hole extends through the substrate in vertical alignment with the first section. A pillar capacitor structure is initially formed using the second section of the DRAM cell hole, followed by the formation of a transistor using the first section of the DRAM cell hole as a channel for the transistor. Due to the use of a common DRAM cell hole, the pillar capacitor structure and the channel are in vertical alignment. The substrate is subsequently flipped and removed from the pillar capacitor structure, which is further processed to form a pillar capacitor. In some embodiments, the channel may be formed from a deposition of indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO).

Abstract: Embodiments provide raised pad formations for step contacts in three-dimensional structures formed on microelectronic workpieces. Steps are formed in a multilayer stack that is used for the three-dimensional structure. The multilayer stack includes alternating non-conductive and conductive layers. For one embodiment, alternating oxide and polysilicon layers are used. The steps expose contact regions on different conductive layers. Material layers are formed on the contact regions to form raised pads. The material layers preferably have a high selectivity with respect to the non-conductive material for etch processes. A protective layer is formed over the steps and the raised pads, and contact holes are formed through the protective layer to the raised pads. Contacts are then formed within the contact holes. The raised pads inhibit punch-through of the non-conductive layers during the forming of the contact holes thereby improving performance of resulting devices formed in the microelectronic workpieces.
