    Abstract: A method of forming a semiconductor structure. A memory structure is formed on a substrate in the memory array region. A dielectric layer is deposited over the memory array region and peripheral region to cover the memory structure. A reverse etching process is performed to remove part of the dielectric layer from the central area of the memory array region, thereby forming an upwardly protruding wall structure along perimeter of the memory array region. The remaining thickness of the dielectric layer in the central area is equal to the sum of a polishing buffer thickness and a target thickness. A first polishing process is performed to remove the upwardly protruding wall structure from the memory array region. A second polishing process is performed to remove upper portion of the dielectric layer with the polishing buffer thickness from the memory array region.

The first and second sides include first and second upper plane segments at the body, first and second transition segments at the tip portion, and first and second lower plane segments closer to the third and fourth sides than the first and second upper plane segments are, respectively. The first and second transition segments gradually approach the third and fourth sides as they extend from the first and second upper plane segments to the first and second lower plane segments. The first transition and lower plane segments are realized by laser processing. The vertical probe can contact small conductive contacts with good current resistance, structural strength, lifespan, and processing accuracy. When applied to a probe head, breaking or shifting position of the tip portion due to vertical movement can be avoided.

  • Publication number: 20250137114
    Abstract: Some implementations described herein provide a shutter disc for use during a conditioning process within a processing chamber of a deposition tool. The shutter disc described herein includes a material having a wave-shaped section to reduce heat transfer to the shutter disc and to provide relief from thermal stresses. Furthermore, the shutter disc includes a deposition of a thin-film material on a backside of the shutter disc, where a diameter of the shutter disc causes a spacing between an inner edge of the thin-film material and an outer edge of a substrate support component. The spacing prevents an accumulation of material between the thin film material and the substrate support component, reduces tilting of the shutter disc due to a placement error, and reduces heat transfer to the shutter disc.
