摘要:
A method of monitoring corrosion and corrosion sensor includes a first element including a corrodible element to be exposed to a corrosive or corrosion-suspect environment, and a second element including a corrosion sensing circuit coupled with the corrodible element for generating a wireless signal based on the corrosion of the corrodible element.

A very high density field programmable memory is disclosed. An array is formed vertically above a substrate using several layers, each layer of which includes vertically fabricated memory cells. The cell in an N level array may be formed with N+1 masking steps plus masking steps needed for contacts. Maximum use of self alignment techniques minimizes photolithographic limitations. In one embodiment the peripheral circuits are formed in a silicon substrate and an N level array is fabricated above the substrate.

The present invention is a multibit nonvolatile memory and its method of fabrication. According to the present invention a silicon channel body having a first and second channel surface is formed. A charge storage medium is formed adjacent to the first channel surface and a second charge storage medium is formed adjacent to the second channel surface. A first control gate is formed adjacent to the first charge storage medium adjacent to the first channel surface and a second control gate is formed adjacent to the second charge storage medium adjacent to the second surface.

The invention is directed to a method of forming a three dimensional circuit including introducing a three dimensional circuit over a substrate. In one embodiment, the three dimensional circuit includes a circuit structure in a stacked configuration between a first signal line and a second signal line, where the two signal lines comprise similar materials. The method includes selectively patterning the second signal line material and the circuit without patterning the first signal line. One way the second signal line is patterned without patterning the first signal line is by modifying the etch chemistry. A second way the second signal line is patterned without patterning the first signal line is by including an etch stop between the first signal line and the second signal line. The invention is also directed at targeting a desired edge angle of a stacked circuit structure. In terms of patterning techniques, a desired edge angle is targeted by modifying, for example, the etch chemistry from one that is generally anisotropic to one that has a horizontal component to achieve an edge angle that is slightly re-entrant (i.e., having negative slope).
