The present invention discloses a method for preparing a structure with
high aspect ratio, which can be a trench or a conductor. A first mask is
formed on a substrate, and a first etching process is performed to remove
the substrate uncovered by the first mask to form at least one concavity.
A second mask is formed on the surface of the prepared structure, a
second etching process is then performed to remove the second mask on the
concavity, and a third etching process is performed subsequently to
extend the depth of the concavity into the substrate. To prepare a
conductor with high aspect ratio in the substrate, the first mask and the
second mask are preferably made of dielectric material or metal. In
addition, to prepare a trench with high aspect ratio in a silicon
substrate, the first mask and the second mask are preferably made of
dielectric material.
