A method of forming a deep trench capacitor in a semiconductor-on-insulator substrate is provided. The method may include providing a pad layer positioned above a bulk substrate, etching a deep trench into the pad layer and the bulk substrate extending from a top surface of the pad layer down to a location within the bulk substrate, and doping a portion of the bulk substrate to form a buried plate. The method further including depositing a node dielectric, an inner electrode, and a dielectric cap substantially filling the deep trench, the node dielectric being located between the buried plate and the inner electrode, the dielectric cap being located at a top of the deep trench, removing the pad layer, growing an insulator layer on top of the bulk substrate, and growing a semiconductor-on-insulator layer on top of the insulator layer. |
