Filed: 1998-01-26
Granted: 2000-05-11
Abstract: This invention discloses a method for forming a shallow trench isolation to prevent surface recess of the shallow trench.  A T-shape like opening is first formed within the silicon nitride layer, the silicon oxide layer and the substrate in which the width of silicon nitride layer is larger than that of the silicon oxide layer and the substrate.  The opening is filled with an insulating material.  A portion of the insulating material is removed when the silicon nitride layer is stripped such that the insulating layer is not over etched.  Accordingly, a shallow trench isolation with the same level is formed and recess beside the trench can be prevented.

Title: Contact exposure method
Inventor: TANAKA YONETA
IPC: G03F7/20
Filed: 1999-03-15
Granted: 2002-05-11
Abstract: The subject of the present invention is to provide a contact exposure method in which the mask is not damaged, and the workpiece is not broken. To solve the problem, the method of the present invention provides a back up ring 10 or the like between a mask carrier WS and a workpiece carrier WS. The workpiece carrier WS and the mask carrier MS are moved apart from one another by a defined distance. Then, the mask M and the workpiece W are attached by vacuum suction or the like on the mask carrier MS and the workpiece carrier WS, respectively. A negative pressure is produced in the space between the mask M and the workpiece W. Since the workpiece carrier WS and the mask carrier MS are moved apart from one another by a defined distance D, the mask M does bend when the pressure is reduced, but the mask M and the workpiece W do not come into contact. In this state, air is supplied from a compressor 12 to a groove 5 in the workpiece carrier WS, causing the workpiece W to be raised and arranged tightly against the mask M, and then, an exposure is performed.

Granted: 2000-11-01
Abstract: An ASIC structure is formed to include testing/debugging circuitry in a separate module that is flip-chip bonded to the ASIC. In this manner, the ASIC may be initially designed to incorporate a ""final"" production ROM  while still utilizing a prototype RAM device during development and testing. Therefore, the ASIC design layout does not need to be redone once testing is complete and it is desired to ""switch out"" the prototype RAM with the full production ROM. Advantageously, the ""flip chip"" ASIC  arrangement of the present invention is suitable for situations where certain chip modules are not yet available in the design rules used for the rest of the ASIC. In this case, the ""older"" technology chip is flip chip bonded onto the ASIC, where the ASIC is initially designed to include a reserved space for the yet-to-be designed module(s). Once design is complete, the ""older"" chip is no longer necessary and the ASIC does not need to be re-designed.
