Abstract

A method of forming a trench capacitor comprises steps of forming a trench in a substrate, partially filling the trench with a first conductive material, lining a portion of the trench above the first conductive material with a collar material, etching the collar material to a strap depth below a top of the trench, and filling the trench with a second conductive material, wherein a portion of the second conductive material positioned between the strap depth and the top of the trench comprises a buried strap.
