SEMICONDUCTOR FEATURE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18366274 titled 'SEMICONDUCTOR FEATURE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a semiconductor feature with various components and structures.

  • The feature includes a semiconductor substrate, a dielectric structure, and a semiconductor device.
  • An interconnecting structure is connected to the semiconductor device and is located within the dielectric structure.
  • An STI (shallow trench isolation) structure surrounds the semiconductor device in the semiconductor substrate.
  • Two DTI (deep trench isolation) structures penetrate both the semiconductor substrate and the STI structure, also surrounding the semiconductor device.
  • A passivation structure is connected to the semiconductor substrate and the DTI structures, and is located opposite to the interconnecting structure.
  • A conductive structure is surrounded by the passivation structure and penetrates the semiconductor substrate and the STI structure into the dielectric structure.
  • The conductive structure is located between the DTI structures and is electrically connected to the semiconductor device via the interconnecting structure.
