  • Patent number: 7094653
    Abstract: STI structures with step height control are produced using a relatively thin nitrogen-containing layer formed over a substrate. The nitrogen-containing layer may consist of SiN and SiON films with a combined thickness of 900 angstroms or less. Trench openings are formed to extend through the nitrogen-containing layer and into the substrate. Chemical vapor deposition is used to form a dielectric such as an oxide within the trench openings and over the top surface of the nitrogen-containing layer. A polishing operation is used to partially polish the CVD dielectric layer leaving a reduced thickness over the nitrogen-containing layer, and then a dry etch is used to remove the dielectric from over the nitrogen-containing layer and uniformly recede the top surface of the dielectric within the trench. Dishing effects are avoided. The nitrogen-containing layer is removed to produce STI structures with step heights of less than 500 angstroms.
