摘要:
Provided are a method and apparatus for determining a security solution. The method and apparatus generate a security solution analysis model for analyzing effects on investment of security solution combinations consisting of several security solution candidates on the basis of integer programming (IP), standardize various constraints that have significant effects on security solution determination on the basis of IP, and apply the standardized constraints to the security solution analysis model, thereby determining a security solution combination having the smallest residual risk while satisfying the constraints as an optimum security solution combination.According to the method and apparatus, an optimum security solution combination that can minimize a residual risk while satisfying various constraints is rapidly and accurately determined. Thus, it is possible to support effective determination in information security investment.

Two different gate conductor dielectric caps are used in the array and support device regions so that the bitline contact can be fabricated in the array region, but a thinner hard mask can be used for better linewidth control in the support device region. The thinner dielectric cap is made into dielectric spacers in the array device regions during support mask etching. These dielectric spacers allow for the array gate conductor resist line to be made smaller than the final gate conductor linewidth. This widens the array gate conductor processing window. The second dielectric cap layer improves linewidth control for the support devices and the array devices. Two separate gate conductor lithography steps and gate conductor dielectric etches are carried out in the present invention to optimize the gate conductor linewidth control in the array and support device regions. The gate conductors in the array and support devices regions are etched simultaneously to reduce production cost. In additional embodiments of the invention, dual workfunction support device transistors with or without salicide can be fabricated with an array including borderless contacts.

In one aspect, the present invention discloses a transistor device (see e.g., FIG. 3) that includes first and second source/drain regions 124a and 126 disposed in a semiconductor body 122 and separated by a channel region 128a. A dielectric layer 134a overlies the channel region 128a and a gate electrode 130a/132a overlies the dielectric layer 134a. In the preferred embodiment, the gate electrode includes a polysilicon layer 130a that extends a first lateral distance over the dielectric layer and a silicide layer 132a that extends a second lateral distance over the first polysilicon layer. In this example, the first lateral distance is greater than the second lateral distance.
摘要:
By providing a photoresist material with a protective polymer layer during the etching of an organic anti-reflective coating, undue damage to the photoresist material can be avoided during opening of the anti-reflective coating without the need for an oxidant. The preferred polymer chemistry system for producing such a result includes a fluorohydrocarbon-containing polymer mixture with a strong source of CF3, preferably C2F6. The etchant also includes a source of hydrogen selected from CH3F, C2HF5, or CH2F2, and a diluent selected from Ar, He or N2.
