SEMICONDUCTOR TRENCH CAPACITOR STRUCTURE AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF

A semiconductor trench capacitor structure is provided. The semiconductor trench capacitor comprises a semiconductor substrate; a trench capacitor overlying the semiconductor substrate, wherein the trench capacitor comprises a plurality of trench electrodes and a plurality of capacitor dielectric layers that are alternatingly stacked over the semiconductor substrate and defines a plurality of trench segments and a plurality of pillar segments, wherein the trench electrodes and the capacitor dielectric layers are recessed into the semiconductor substrate at the trench segments, and wherein the trench segments are separated from each other by the pillar segments; and a protection dielectric layer disposed between the semiconductor substrate and the trench capacitor, wherein the protection dielectric layer has a thickness greater than thicknesses of the trench electrodes.
