Novel shallow trench isolation method for reducing oxide thickness variations at different pattern densities

A method of reducing oxide thickness variations in a STI pattern that includes both a dense trench array and a wide trench is described. A first HDP CVD step with a deposition / sputter (D / S) ratio of 9.5 is used to deposit a dielectric layer with a thickness that is 120 to 130% of the shallow trench depth. An etch back is performed in the same CVD chamber with NF3, SiF4 or NF3 and SiF4 to remove about 40 to 50% of the initial dielectric layer. A second HDP CVD step with a D / S ratio of 16 deposits an additional thickness of dielectric layer to a level that is slightly higher than after the first deposition. The etch back and second deposition form a smoother dielectric layer surface which enables a subsequent planarization step to provide filled STI features with a minimal amount of dishing in wide trenches.

Method and Apparatus for Pressure Control of Glass-Making Thickness-Control Zone

Managing pressure within a thickness-control-zone (muffle door) housing (20) relative to pressures in a glass-making machine enclosure (60) and an upper chamber (40)—that is disposed outside the enclosure—so as to minimize or control undesired airflows that would adversely affect thickness (9) of glass ribbon (8). According to one pressure-management technique, the pressure at a location (25) in the housing (20) is managed so as to be less than the pressure at a location (65) that is within the enclosure (60) as well as both outside and adjacent to the housing. In the event of a leak, as by a crack or unintended opening in the housing, for example, this pressure difference reduces or prevents airflow toward the ribbon and, thereby, undesired thickness variation in the ribbon. According to a second pressure-management technique, the pressure at location (25) is managed so as to be greater than the pressure in the upper chamber.
