Abstract
Recessed LOCOS isolation using high pressure dry 0 2 oxidation has been studied. The effect of the high pressure dry O2 oxidation on the birds beak encroachment was clarified. This advanced LOCOS process was found to provide superior gate oxide integrity and junction characteristics. It meets the required isolation characteristics for 256 Mbit DRAM and beyond with maintaining the process simplicity.
