Trench isolation interfaces

Abstract:

The present disclosure includes semiconductor structures and methods of forming semiconductor structures for trench isolation interfaces. An example semiconductor structure includes a semiconductor substrate having a shallow trench isolation (STI) structure with a trench formed therein. A material in the trench forms a charged interface by interaction with the semiconductor substrate of the STI structure. The formed charged interface raises a parasitic threshold of the STI structure.
