  • Publication number: 20100009514
    Abstract: A method of fabricating a micro-vertical structure is provided. The method includes bonding a second crystalline silicon (Si) substrate onto a first crystalline Si substrate by interposing an insulating layer pattern and a cavity, etching the second crystalline Si substrate using a deep reactive ion etch (DRIE) process along a [111] crystal plane vertical to the second crystalline Si substrate, and etching an etched vertical surface of the second crystalline Si substrate using a crystalline wet etching process to improve the surface roughness and flatness of the etched vertical surface. As a result, no morphological defects occur on the etched vertical surface. Also, footings do not occur at an etch end-point due to the insulating layer pattern. In addition, the micro-vertical structure does not float in the air but is fixed to the first crystalline Si substrate, thereby facilitating subsequent processes.

  • Publication number: 20080106876
    Abstract: A semiconductor memory module having a reverse mounted chip resistor, and a method of fabricating the same are provided. By reverse mounting the chip resistor on the semiconductor memory module, the resistive material is protected, thereby preventing open circuits caused by damage to the resistive material. Also, a chip-resistor connection pad of a module substrate is formed to extend higher from the module substrate than other connection pads connected to other elements. Thus, the resistive material of the chip resistor does not contact the module substrate, thereby preventing poor alignment and defective connections.
