    Abstract: A semiconductor structure includes a first conductive layer coupled to a transistor. A first dielectric layer is over the first conductive layer. A second conductive layer is within the first dielectric layer, contacting a portion of a top surface of the first conductive layer. The second conductive layer includes a cap portion extending above a top surface of the first dielectric layer. A first dielectric spacer is between the first dielectric layer and the second conductive layer. A phase change material layer is above a top surface of the second conductive layer. A third conductive layer is over the phase change material layer. A second dielectric layer is over the first dielectric layer. A second dielectric spacer is on a sidewall of the cap portion, wherein a thermal conductivity of the second dielectric spacer is less than that of the first dielectric layer or that of the second dielectric layer.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for fabricating an integrated circuit. The method includes forming an energy removable film (ERF) on a substrate; forming a first dielectric layer on the ERF; patterning the ERF and first dielectric layer to form a trench in the ERF and the first dielectric layer; filling a conductive material in the trench; forming a ceiling layer on the first dielectric layer and conductive material filled in the trench; and applying energy to the ERF to form air gaps in the ERF after the forming of the ceiling layer.

    Abstract: A method for fabricating a semiconductor device is disclosed. First, a semiconductor substrate having a doped region(s) is provided. Thereafter, a pre-amorphous implantation process and neutral (or non-neutral) species implantation process is performed over the doped region(s) of the semiconductor substrate. Subsequently, a silicide is formed in the doped region(s). By conducting a pre-amorphous implantation combined with a neutral species implantation, the present invention reduces the contact resistance, such as at the contact area silicide and source/drain substrate interface.
