Abstract:
In a method of detecting an etch by-product, the method including forming a magnetic layer including palladium (Pd) on a substrate; etching the magnetic layer to form a magnetic layer pattern; depositing a mixture including an alkyl bromide compound on a surface of the magnetic layer pattern; and measuring a current difference between the substrate and the mixture to detect an etch by-product on the surface of the magnetic layer pattern.
Abstract:
A slurry composition includes an abrasive agent, an oxidizing agent, and a first adsorption inhibitor including a polyethylene oxide copolymer. A method of manufacturing a phase change memory device may include providing a substrate including an interlayer insulating film having a trench and a phase change material layer on the interlayer insulating film filling the trench, and performing chemical mechanical polishing on the phase change material layer using the slurry composition to form a phase change material pattern layer.
Abstract:
A method of fabricating a phase change memory device includes the use of first, second and third polishing processes. The first polishing process forms a first contact portion using a first sacrificial layer and the second polishing process forms a phase change material pattern using a second sacrificial layer. After removing the first and second sacrificial layers to expose resultant protruding structures of the first contact portion and the phase change material pattern, a third polishing process is used to polish the resultant protruding structures using an insulation layer as a polishing stopper layer.
Abstract:
A composition for cleaning a magnetic pattern, a method of manufacturing a magnetic memory device, a method of forming a magnetic pattern, and a magnetic memory device, the composition including a glycol ether-based organic solvent; a decomposing agent that includes an aliphatic amine; and at least one of a chelating agent, or a cleaning accelerator that includes an organic alkaline compound, wherein the composition is devoid of water.
Abstract:
A wafer having a dielectric layer and an electrode partially protruding from the top surface of the dielectric layer is provided. The dielectric layer is etched with a chemical solution such as LAL. Prior to etching, the protruding portion of the electrode is removed or reduced to prevent any bubbles included in the chemical solution from adhering to the electrode. Thus, the chemical solution can etch the dielectric layers without being blocked by any bubbles included in a chemical solution.
Abstract:
A mobile communication terminal includes a first transceiver that transmits and receives signals, an RFID transceiver that transmits and receives signals, and a controller that stops the first transceiver while it is performing signal communication, and activates the RFID transceiver.
