A method and system for improving a quality of communication based on a label distribution protocol is provided. The method includes the following: When a local label switching router (LSR) finds out a change of a route at an upstream node in a multicast label switching path (LSP), it calculates and sets up a new optimized multicast LSP according to the label distribution protocol (LDP), and delays to send a withdraw request to the upstream node in the former multicast LSP. An interruption of the data stream in the multicast LSP reconstruction procedures can be avoided or reduced, so that the loss of data packets caused by the multicast LSP adjustment is reduced, and the quality of communication of the multicast is improved.

A method to fabricate an MTJ device and its connections to a CMOS integrated circuit is described. The device is built out of three layers. The bottom layer serves as a seed layer for the center layer, which is alpha tantalum, while the third, topmost, layer is selected for its smoothness, its compatibility with the inter-layer dielectric materials, and its ability to protect the underlying tantalum.

A structure that is well suited to connecting an MTJ device to a CMOS integrated circuit is described. It is built out of three layers. The bottom layer serves as a seed layer for the center layer, which is alpha tantalum, while the third, topmost, layer is selected for its smoothness, its compatibility with the inter-layer dielectric materials, and its ability to protect the underlying tantalum. A method for its formation is also described.

A method of forming a Cu—Cu junction between a word line pad (WLP) and bit line (BL) contact is described. An opening above a WL contact is formed in a first SiNx layer on a substrate that includes a WLP and word line. After a bottom electrode (BE) layer, MTJ stack, and hard mask are sequentially deposited, an etch forms an MTJ element above the word line. Another etch forms a BE and exposes the first SiNx layer above the WLP and bond pad (BP). An MTJ ILD layer is deposited and planarized followed by deposition of a second SiNx layer and BL ILD layer. Trenches are formed in the BL ILD layer and second SiNx layer above the WLP, hard mask and BP. After vias are formed in the MTJ ILD and first SiNx layers above the WLP and BP, Cu deposition follows to form dual damascene BL contacts.

摘要:
A method of forming barrier layers in a via hole extending through an inter-level dielectric layer and including a preformed first barrier coated onto the bottom and sidewalls of the via holes. In a single plasma sputter reactor, a first step sputters the wafer rather than the target with high energy ions to remove the barrier layer from the bottom of the via but not from the sidewalls and a second step sputter deposits a second barrier layer, for example of Ta/TaN, onto the via bottom and sidewalls. The two steps may be differentiated by power applied to the target, by chamber pressure, or by wafer bias. The second step may include the simultaneous removal of the first barrier layer from the via bottom and sputter deposition of the second barrier layer onto the via sidewalls.
摘要:
A method of growing a thin film onto a substrate. A precursor of the film is fed into a reaction space in the form of a vapor phase pulse causing the precursor to adsorb onto the surface of the substrate to form a layer thereof. A catalyst is susequently fed into the reaction space in an amount to substantially convert the layer of the precursor to the desired thin film. The above steps may be repeated to achieve the desired film thickness.

A method, a system, and a device for establishing a pseudo wire are disclosed. The method includes: receiving, by a switching provider edge at a bifurcation position, a label mapping message, obtaining information of the switching provider edge at the bifurcation position and information of at least two next hops or outgoing interfaces of the switching provider edge through parsing, comparing the information of the switching provider edge at the bifurcation position with information of a local device, and if the information of the switching provider edge at the bifurcation position matches with the information of the local device, establishing at least two pseudo wires from the switching provider edge according to the information of at least two next hops or outgoing interfaces.

A MTJ in an MRAM array is disclosed with a composite free layer having a lower crystalline layer contacting a tunnel barrier and an upper amorphous NiFeX layer for improved bit switching performance. The crystalline layer is Fe, Ni, or FEB with a thickness of at least 6 Angstroms which affords a high magnetoresistive ratio. The X element in the NiFeX layer is Mg, Hf, Zr, Nb, or Ta with a content of 5 to 30 atomic % NiFeX thickness is preferably between 20 to 40 Angstroms to substantially reduce bit line switching current and number of shorted bits. In an alternative embodiments, the crystalline layer may be a Fe/NiFe bilayer. Optionally, the amorphous layer may have a NiFeM1/NiFeM2 configuration where M1 and M2 are Mg, Hf, Zr, Nb, or Ta, and M1 is unequal to M2. Annealing at 300° C. to 360° C. provides a high magnetoresistive ratio of about 150%.
