摘要:
The present disclosure, in some embodiments, relates to a memory device. In some embodiments, the memory device comprises a substrate and an interconnect structure disposed over the substrate. The interconnect structure comprises stacked interconnect metal layers disposed within stacked interlayer dielectric (ILD) layers. A memory cell is disposed between an upper interconnect metal layer and an intermediate interconnect metal layer. A selecting transistor is connected to the memory cell and disposed between the intermediate interconnect metal layer and a lower interconnect metal layer. By placing the selecting transistor within the back-end interconnect structure between two interconnect metal layers, front-end space is saved, and more integration flexibility is provided.

In a method of manufacturing a gate-all-around field effect transistor, a trench is formed over a substrate. Nano-tube structures are arranged into the trench, each of which includes a carbon nanotube (CNT) having a gate dielectric layer wrapping around the CNT and a gate electrode layer over the gate dielectric layer. An anchor layer is formed in the trench. A part of the anchor layer is removed at a source/drain (S/D) region. The gate electrode layer and the gate dielectric layer are removed at the S/D region, thereby exposing a part of the CNT at the S/D region. An S/D electrode layer is formed on the exposed part of the CNT. A part of the anchor layer is removed at a gate region, thereby exposing a part of the gate electrode layer of the gate structure. A gate contact layer is formed on the exposed part of the gate electrode layer.

A method of fabricating epitaxial gate dielectric includes forming a SrxBayMzTiO3 gate dielectric on a fin, and 0≦x, y and z≦1, x+y+z=1, and M is calcium or magnesium. One of x and y is not 0. The SrxBayMzTiO3 gate dielectric includes a plurality of SrxBayMzTiO3 dielectric films. Each of the SrxBayMzTiO3 dielectric films has different ratio of x, y, and z. The fin is then oxidized to form a silicon oxide in between the SrxBayMzTiO3 gate dielectric and the fin. A dielectric layer is disposed on the SrxBayMzTiO3 gate dielectric. Subsequently a metal gate layer is deposited on the dielectric layer.
