摘要： A method of fabricating a silicon carbide imprint stamp is disclosed. A mold layer has a cavity formed therein. A spacer is formed in the cavity to reduce a first feature size of the cavity. A casting process is used to form a feature and a foundation layer connected with the feature. The spacer operatively reduces the first feature size of the feature to a second feature size that is less than the lithography limit. The foundation layer and the feature are unitary whole made from a material comprising silicon carbide (SiC), a material that is harder than silicon (Si) alone. Consequently, the silicon carbide imprint stamp has a longer service lifetime because it can endure several imprinting cycles without wearing out or breaking. The longer service lifetime makes the silicon carbide imprint stamp economically feasible to manufacture as the manufacturing cost can be recouped over the service lifetime.

摘要： Method for employing optical state-change organic polymer films as information-storage layers in optoelectronic, high-density memories, and high-density optoelectronic memories produced by the method. In certain embodiments, the optical state-change organic polymer films can be manufactured to exhibit two different, stable optical states, one transparent, and one light-absorbing and/or light-reflecting, that can be locally, stably, and reversibly induced by application of an electrical field. In various embodiments, information is digitally encoded in an information-storage layer as bits, the value of each bit represented by the optical state of an area of the information-storage layer corresponding to the bit. In various embodiments, the optical state of a small region of the information-storage layer can be determined by exposing the small region to visible light, and determining whether or not a photodiode layer in an information-storage medium below the information-storage layer generates an electrical current in response to illumination.

摘要： A method of making a magnetic tunnel junction device is disclosed. The magnetic tunnel junction device includes a magnetic tunnel junction stack and an electrically non-conductive spacer in contact with a portion of the magnetic tunnel junction stack. The spacer electrically insulates a portion of the magnetic tunnel junction stack from an electrically conductive material used for a via that is in contact with the magnetic tunnel junction stack and a top conductor. The spacer can also prevent an electrical short between a bottom conductor and the top conductor. The spacer can prevent electrical shorts when the magnetic tunnel junction stack and a self-aligned via are not aligned with each other.

摘要： The present invention is to provide a phase change memory device having a new structure which can be easily manufactured by mass-production with a high yield rate, therefore, reducing the cost of process and providing reliable device characteristics, and a manufacturing method thereof. The present invention provides a phase-change memory device comprising: a lower dielectric layer; a lower electrode, at least a part of the lateral surface of the lower electrode being surrounded by the lower dielectric layer; a thin dielectric layer including a pore having smaller area than the top surface of the lower electrode, aligned to the top surface of the lower electrode and extending to the top surface of the lower electrode; and a phase-change resistor filling the pore and formed on the thin dielectric layer. In the proposed structure of the present invention, the pores or local damaged spots can provide a micro path of current and localize the phase-changing volume in the phase-change resistor. Thus, the phase-change memory device can be operated with very low power.

摘要： The invention includes an apparatus and a method that provides a shared global word line MRAM structure. The MRAM structure includes a first bit line conductor oriented in a first direction. A first sense line conductor is oriented in a second direction. A first memory cell is physically connected between the first bit line conductor and the first sense line conductor. A global word line is oriented in substantially the second direction, and magnetically coupled to the first memory cell. A second bit line conductor is oriented in substantially the first direction. A second sense line conductor is oriented in substantially the second direction. A second memory cell is physically connected between the second bit line conductor and the second sense line conductor. The global word line is also magnetically coupled to the second memory cell. The first memory cell and the second memory cell can be MRAM devices. A logical state of the MRAM devices can be determined by an orientation of magnetization of the MRAM devices. The orientation of magnetization of the first memory cell can be determined by current conducted by the first bit line and the global word line. The orientation of magnetization of the second memory cell can be determined by current conducted by the second bit line and the global word line. A logical state of the first memory cell can be sensed by the first bit line and the first sense line. The logical state of the first memory cell can be determined by a sensing a resistance between the first bit line and the first sense line. A logical state of the second memory cell can be sensed by the second bit line and the second sense line. The logical state of the second memory cell can be determined by a sensing a resistance between the second bit line and the second sense line.

摘要： A device isolation process flow for an atomic resolution storage (ARS) system inserts device isolation into a process flow of the ARS system so that diodes may be electrically insulated from one another to improve signal to noise ratio. In addition, since most harsh processing is done prior to depositing a phase change layer, which stores data bits, process damage to the phase change layer may be minimized.
