Abstract: A method of forming a memory device includes forming an alternating stack of insulating layers and sacrificial material layers over a substrate forming memory stack structures through the alternating stack, forming a first backside trench and a second backside trench through the alternating stack, forming backside recesses by removing the sacrificial material layers, depositing a backside blocking dielectric layer after formation of the backside recesses, forming a liner that a lesser lateral extent than a lateral distance between the first backside trench and the second backside trench; and selectively growing a metal from surfaces of the liners while either not growing or growing at a lower rate the metal from surfaces of the backside recesses that are not covered by the liners.

Abstract: A structure, such as a semiconductor device, includes metal line structures located over a substrate and laterally spaced apart from each other. Each of the metal line structures includes planar metallic liner including a first metal element and a metal line body portion includes a second metal element that is different from the first metal element. Metal-organic framework (MOF) material portions are located between neighboring pairs of the metal line structures and contain metal ions or clusters of the first metal element and organic ligands connected to the metal ions or clusters of the first metal element. Air gaps may be formed in the MOF material portions to further reduce the effective dielectric constant.

Abstract: A three-dimensional memory device includes an alternating stack of insulating layers and electrically conductive layers, and a memory stack structure vertically extending through the alternating stack. The memory stack structure includes a vertical semiconductor channel and a memory film. The vertical semiconductor channel can include a III-V compound semiconductor channel material. A III-V compound substrate semiconductor layer or a III-V compound semiconductor source region can be used to provide low-resistance electrical connection to a bottom end of the vertical semiconductor channel, and a drain region including a graded III-V compound semiconductor material can be used to provide low-resistance electrical connection to a top end of the vertical semiconductor channel.

Abstract: A first semiconductor die includes first semiconductor devices located over a first substrate, first interconnect-level dielectric material layers embedding first metal interconnect structures and located on the first semiconductor devices, and a first pad-level dielectric layer located on the first interconnect-level dielectric material layers and embedding first bonding pads. Each of the first bonding pads includes a first proximal horizontal surface and at least one first distal horizontal surface that is more distal from the first substrate than the first proximal horizontal surface is from the first substrate and has a lesser total area than a total area of the first proximal horizontal surface. A second semiconductor die including second bonding pads that are embedded in a second pad-level dielectric layer can be bonded to a respective distal surface of the first bonding pads.

Abstract: A memory opening or a line trench is formed through an alternating stack of insulating layers and sacrificial material layers. A memory opening fill structure or a memory stack assembly is formed, which includes a vertical stack of discrete intermediate metallic electrodes formed on sidewalls of the sacrificial material layers, a gate dielectric layer, and a vertical semiconductor channel. Backside recesses are formed by removing the sacrificial material layers selective to the insulating layers, and a combination of a ferroelectric dielectric layer and an electrically conductive layer within each of the backside recesses. The electrically conductive layer is laterally spaced from a respective one of the discrete intermediate metallic electrodes by the ferroelectric dielectric layer. Ferroelectric-metal-insulator memory elements are formed around the vertical semiconductor channel.
