    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a front-end-of-line (FEOL) layer, which includes a plurality of individual devices, on a substrate, and first, second, and third metal layers sequentially stacked on the FEOL layer. The second metal layer includes an interlayer insulating layer and an interconnection line in the interlayer insulating layer. The interconnection line includes a lower via portion electrically connected to the first metal layer, an upper via portion electrically connected to the third metal layer, and a line portion between the lower via portion and the upper via portion. A line width of an upper portion of the interconnection line gradually decreases in a vertical direction away from the substrate, and a line width of a lower portion of the interconnection line gradually increases in a vertical direction away from the substrate.

    Abstract: In a semiconductor device, a first active area, a second active area, and a third active area are formed on a substrate. A first gate electrode is formed on the first active area, a second gate electrode is formed on the second active area, and a third gate electrode is formed on the third active area. The first gate electrode has a first P-work-function metal layer, a first capping layer, a first N-work-function metal layer, a first barrier metal layer, and a first conductive layer. The second gate electrode has a second capping layer, a second N-work-function metal layer, a second barrier metal layer, and a second conductive layer. The third gate electrode has a second P-work-function metal layer, a third capping layer, a third N-work-function metal layer, and a third barrier metal layer. The third gate electrode does not have the first and second conductive layers.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for managing memory are disclosed. In one embodiment, a first data structure is generated, where the first data structure is associated with one or more virtual addresses mapped to one or more physical addresses of the memory. A size of the first data structure is based on a characteristic of the memory. Data to be stored in the memory is received, and a virtual address of the one or more virtual addresses is identified based on the first data structure. The virtual address is mapped to a physical address, and the data is stored in the physical address. The first data structure is updated based on the storing of the data.
