A method and structure for forming a semiconductor structure. A semiconductor substrate is provided. A trench is formed within the semiconductor substrate. A first layer of electrically insulative material is formed within the trench. A first portion and a second portion of the first layer of electrically insulative material is removed. A second layer of electrically insulative material is selectively grown on the first layer comprising the removed first portion and the removed second portion.

Disclosed are non-volatile memory devices that incorporate a series of single or double memory cells. The single memory cells are essentially “U” shaped. The double memory cells comprise two essentially “U” shaped memory cells. Each memory cell comprises a memory element having a bi-stable layer sandwiched between two conductive layers. A temporary conductor may be applied to a series of cells and used to bulk condition the bi-stable layers of the cells. Also, due to the “U” shape of the cells, a cross point wire array may be used to connect a series of cells. The cross point wire array allows the memory elements of each cell to be individually identified and addressed for storing information and also allows for the information stored in the memory elements in all of the cells in the series to be simultaneously erased using a block erase process.

Conductive sidewall spacer structures are formed using a method that patterns structures (mandrels) and activates the sidewalls of the structures. Metal ions are attached to the sidewalls of the structures and these metal ions are reduced to form seed material. The structures are then trimmed and the seed material is plated to form wiring on the sidewalls of the structures.

A sidewall image transfer process for forming sub-lithographic structures employs a layer of sacrificial polymer containing silicon that is deposited over a gate conductor layer and covered by a cover layer. The sacrificial polymer layer is patterned with conventional resist and etched to form a sacrificial mandrel. The edges of the mandrel are oxidized or nitrided in a plasma at low temperature, after which the polymer and the cover layer are stripped, leaving sublithographic sidewalls. The sidewalls are used as hardmasks to etch sublithographic gate structures in the gate conductor layer.

An immersion lithography apparatus and method, and a lithographic optical column structure are disclosed for conducting immersion lithography with at least the projection optics of the optical system and the wafer in different fluids at the same pressure. In particular, an immersion lithography apparatus is provided in which a supercritical fluid is introduced about the wafer, and another fluid, e.g., an inert gas, is introduced to at least the projection optics of the optical system at the same pressure to alleviate the need for a special lens. In addition, the invention includes an immersion lithography apparatus including a chamber filled with a supercritical immersion fluid and enclosing a wafer to be exposed and at least a projection optic component of the optical system.
