摘要: Integrated circuits and methods for fabricating magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) structures and integrated circuits are provided. An exemplary method for fabricating an integrated circuit including a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) structure includes forming magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) layers over a substrate. Further, the method includes forming a conductive pillar over the MTJ layers, wherein the conductive pillar is formed with an uppermost surface, and wherein the uppermost surface is not planarized. Also, the method includes etching the MTJ layers to form a pillar structure from portions of the MTJ layers underlying the conductive pillar.

摘要: A device and a method for forming a device are disclosed. The method includes providing a substrate prepared with a device region. A device well having second polarity type dopants is formed in the substrate. A threshold voltage (VT) implant is performed with a desired level of second polarity type dopants into the substrate. The VT implant forms a VT adjust region to obtain a desired VT of a transistor. A co-implantation with diffusion suppression material is performed to form a diffusion suppression (DS) region in the substrate. The DS region reduces or prevents segregation and out-diffusion of the VT implanted second polarity type dopants. A transistor of a first polarity type having a gate is formed in the device region. First and second diffusion regions are formed adjacent to sidewalls of the gate.
