Publication number: 20250120209Abstract: The problem of forming a deep trench isolation structure suitable for photodetectors with small pitch is solved by a process in which a grid of trenches is etched from the front side using high energy plasma followed by annealing. The trenches are filled with an oxide followed by etching to recess the oxide. The trench recesses are filled with semiconductor to form a grid-shaped semiconductor structure. After FEOL processing, BEOL processing, attachment to a second substrate, and thinning from the back side, an etch removes the oxide from the back side. The etch stops on the grid-shaped semiconductor structure. The trenches are then lined and filled from the back side. The front side etch allows the trenches to be made narrow and with highly vertical sidewalls. Lining and filling the trenches from the back side provides good optical and electrical isolation.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 4, 2023Publication date: April 10, 2025Inventors: Shu-Ting Tsai, Tzu-Jui Wang, U-Ting Chen, Shyh-Fann Ting, Szu-Ying Chen
