摘要:
An ohmic resistance is present between two parts of a conductor layer so that the size of the ohmic resistance can be ascertained and/or a semiconductor region is present in or on a layer forming the dielectric. The conductor layer is structured into a gate contact, a source contact, and a drain contact so that a transistor function or switching function is possible in the semiconductor region. Such a configuration allows an attempt to analyze the circuit integrated in the chip to be detected.

A method for producing cavities, which are patterned in submicrometer dimensions, in a cavity layer of a semiconductor device, is described. In the method, a process liquid is frozen in the trenches in a process layer which has been patterned by ribs and trenches, then the process liquid is covered with a covering layer and is then expelled from the cavities resulting from the covering of the trenches.

Discharging the reaction water from the novel PEM fuel cells does not require humidification of the reaction gases or an increase in the gas pressure. This is attained in that a hydrophobic layer on the cathode side is used which has a smaller pore size than the layer on the anode side. The reaction water is removed via the anode during the operation of the fuel cell.

A method of forming a ferromagnetic liner on conductive lines of magnetic memory devices and a structure thereof. The ferromagnetic liner increases the flux concentration of current run through the conductive lines, reducing the amount of write current needed to switch magnetic memory cells. The conductive lines are formed in a plate-up method, and the ferromagnetic liner is selectively formed on the plated conductive lines. The ferromagnetic liner may also be formed over conductive lines and a top portion of vias in a peripheral region of the workpiece.
