    摘要: A system and method are provided to facilitate dual damascene interconnect integration in a single imprint step. The method provides for creation of a translucent imprint mold with three-dimensional features comprising the dual damascene pattern to be imprinted. The imprint mold is brought into contact with a photopolymerizable organosilicon imaging layer deposited upon a transfer layer which is spin coated or otherwise deposited upon a dielectric layer of a substrate. When the photopolymerizable layer is exposed to a source of illumination, it cures with a structure matching the dual damascene pattern of the imprint mold. A halogen breakthrough etch followed by oxygen transfer etch transfer the vias from the imaging layer into the transfer layer. A second halogen breakthrough etch followed by a second oxygen transfer etch transfer the trenches from the imaging layer into the transfer layer. A dielectric etch transfers the pattern from the transfer layer into the dielectric layer. A metal fill process then fills the dual damascene openings of the dielectric layer with metal.

    摘要: A non-volatile memory device includes a substrate, an insulating layer, a fin, an oxide layer, spacers and one or more control gates. The insulating layer is formed on the substrate and the fin is formed on the insulating layer. The oxide layer is formed on the fin and acts as a tunnel oxide for the memory device. The spacers are formed adjacent the side surfaces of the fin and the control gates are formed adjacent the spacers. The spacers act as floating gate electrodes for the non-volatile memory device.

    摘要: A multi-layer immersion medium monitoring system for a lithographic process monitors characteristics of an immersion medium of a semiconductor manufacturing process. The multi-layer immersion medium includes at least a first liquid of a first density (or viscosity) and a second liquid of a lower density (or viscosity), both of which are interspersed between a final optical component and a semiconductor layer. The higher density layer is provided to reduce turbulence in the immersion medium during the lithographic processes. A scatterometry system monitors optical characteristics of the multi-layer immersion medium to effectuate control of a lithographic process.
