Ying Huan Chuang has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20040063279
    Abstract: Method for forming buried plates. The method includes providing a substrate formed with a pad stacked layer on the surface, a bottle trench and a protective layer on the upper sidewalls of the bottle trench, forming a doped hemispherical silicon grain (HSG) layer on the protective layer and the sidewalls and bottom of the bottle trench, removing the hemispherical silicon grain layer on the protective layer without removing the hemispherical silicon grain layer from the lower sidewalls and bottom of the bottle trench, forming a covering layer on the protective layer, and subjecting the doped hemispherical silicon grain layer to drive-in annealing so that ions in the HSG layer diffuse out to the substrate, thereby forming a buried plate within the lower sidewalls of the bottle trench.

  • Patent number: 6703311
    Abstract: A method for estimating capacitance of deep trench capacitor in a substrate. After a photoresist layer used to define the region of the lower electrode is formed on an oxide layer doping with a conducting type dopant, the height difference of the photoresist layer between the memory cell array area and the supporting area is measured. The radicand of the height difference is directly proportional to a capacitance of a capacitor to-be-formed in the trenches.
