摘要:
A method for forming flash memory devices is provided. The method includes providing a semiconductor substrate, which comprises a silicon material and has a periphery region and a cell region. The method further includes forming an isolation structure between the cell region and the periphery region. Additionally, the method includes forming an ONO layer overlying the cell region and the periphery region. Furthermore, the method includes removing the ONO layer overlying the periphery region to expose silicon material in the periphery region. The method also includes forming a gate dielectric layer overlying the periphery region, while protecting the ONO layer in the cell region. In addition, the method includes forming a polysilicon layer overlying the cell region and the periphery region.

A partially completed semiconductor integrated circuit device. The device has a semiconductor substrate and a dielectric layer overlying the semiconductor substrate. The device has a gate structure including edges and a substantially pure silicon dioxide mask structure overlying the gate structure. A thickness ranging from about 400 to about 600 Angstroms of the substantially pure silicon dioxide mask structure is included. The device has a dielectric layer forming sidewall spacers on the edges of the gate structure to protect the gate structure including the edges and an exposed portion of the pure silicon dioxide mask structure overlying the gate structure. The device has an epitaxially grown fill material (e.g., silicon/germanium, silicon carbide) in an etched source region and an etched drain region. Preferably, the etched source region and the etched drain region are coupled to the gate structure. The device has a strained channel region between the filled source region and the filled drain region from at least the fill material formed in the etched source region and the etched drain region.

A rotary latch having a pivoting handle mounted in the recess of a mounting plate includes a turn-key member that rotates within the handle's free end, and the turn-key member is mechanically linked to a catch rod where rotation of the turn-key member results in a corresponding rotation of the catch rod. As a result of the rotation of the turn-key member, the catch rod has two positions—a “lock” position that does not engage a swiveling trip lever, and an “unlocked” position that engages the swiveling trip lever. When the turn-key member rotates the catch rod into the unlocked position, an actuation/pivoting of the handle about the pivot pin rotates the free end of the handle away from the mounting plate recess to linearly displace the catch rod. The linear displacement of the catch rod causes it to come into contact with and pivot the arm of a swiveling trip lever. The trip lever arm, when rotated by the catch rod, rotates an adjacent kicker journaled on the mounting plate's rear surface. The kicker includes a kicker pin that is engaged by the swiveling trip lever, causing the release kicker to rotate and push a guard rotary. The guard rotary protects a capture rotary from opening, where the capture rotary retains a lock bar. However, when the release kicker pushes the guard rotary against the bias of a dedicated spring, the capture rotary can rotate freely and open outward to release the captured lock bar.
摘要:
A method for forming a CMOS semiconductor wafer. The method includes providing a semiconductor substrate (e.g., silicon wafer) and forming a dielectric layer (e.g., silicon dioxide, silicon oxynitride) overlying the semiconductor substrate. The method includes forming a gate layer overlying the dielectric layer and patterning the gate layer to form a gate structure including edges. The method includes forming a dielectric layer overlying the gate structure to protect the gate structure including the edges. Preferably, the dielectric layer has a thickness of less than 40 nanometers. The method includes etching a source region and a drain region adjacent to the gate structure using the dielectric layer as a protective layer and depositing silicon germanium material into the source region and the drain region to fill the etched source region and the etched drain region. The method causes a channel region between the source region and the drain region to be strained in compressive mode from at least the silicon germanium material formed in the source region and the drain region. The method includes forming a second protective layer overlying surfaces and performing an anisotropic etching process to form spacer structures to seal the gate structure.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a catheter device having a dilatation balloon formed from a polymeric material crosslinked by moisture through —Si—O—Si— linkages, and to a method of making the same. The polymeric material is formed by reacting at least one organofunctional hydrolyzable silane with at least one polymer. The crosslinked polymeric structure is ideal for forming more resilient and durable catheter balloons. In particular, the catheter balloons have excellent abrasion resistance.
