    摘要: A method of forming a gate structure in an integrated circuit on a substrate. A high k layer is formed on the substrate, and a gate electrode layer is formed on the high k layer. The gate electrode layer is the patterned. LDD regions are formed using an ion implantation process, thereby creating damaged portions of the high k layer. A first portion of the damaged portions of the high k layer are removed, thereby defining a gate structure, and leaving remaining portions of the damaged portions of the high k layer. Sidewall spacers are formed adjacent the gate structure. Source/drain regions are formed using an ion implantation process, thereby further damaging the remaining portions of the damaged portions of the high k layer. The remaining portions of the damaged portions of the high k layer are then removed.

    摘要: Optical emission spectra from a test wafer during a plasma process are measured using a spectrometer. The plasma charging voltage retained by (detected by) the test wafer is measured after the process step is completed. The emission spectra are correlated with the plasma charging voltage to identify the species contributing to the plasma charging voltage. The optical emission spectra are monitored in real time to optimize the plasma process to prevent plasma charging damage. The optical emission spectra are also monitored to control the plasma process drift.

    摘要: A load balancing in a multiple DRAM system comprises interleaving memory data across two or more memory channels. Access to the memory channels is controlled by memory controllers. Bus masters are coupled to the memory controllers via an interconnect system and memory requests are transmitted from the bus masters to the memory controller. If congestion is detected in a memory channel, congestion signals are generated and transmitted to the bus masters. Memory requests are accordingly withdrawn or rerouted to less congested memory channels based on the congestion signals.

    摘要: A low-K value dielectric protection spacer for patterning through substrate vias (TSVs) through a low-K value wiring layer. A method for forming a low-K value dielectric protection spacer includes etching a via opening through a low-K value dielectric interconnect layer. A protective layer is deposited in the via opening and on the low-K value dielectric interconnect layer. At least a portion of the protective layer is etched from the bottom of the via opening and from a horizontal surface of the low-K value dielectric interconnect layer. The etching leaving a protective sidewall spacer on a sidewall of the via opening. A through substrate via is etched through the bottom of the via opening and through the semiconductor substrate. The through substrate via is filled with a conductive material.

    摘要: A non-uniform interleaving scheme in a multiple channel DRAM system comprises associating memory data with a memory address, associating address zones to predetermined ranges of memory addresses and associating predetermined interleaving granularities with the address zones. Memory data is interleaved across two or more memory channels such that a predetermined interleaving granularity is applied to each address zone.
