摘要:
An integrated circuit includes memory cells having array transistors separated by minimum lithographic feature size, and unsilicided metal bit lines encapsulated by a diffusion barrier while high performance logic transistors may be formed on the same chip without compromise of performance including an effective channel silicided contacts for low source/drain contact resistance, extension and halo implants for control of short channel effects and a dual work function semiconductor gate having a high impurity concentration and correspondingly thin depletion layer thickness commensurate with state of the art gate dielectric thickness. This structure is achieved by of an easily planarized material, and using a similar mask planarized to the height of the structures of differing materials to decouple substrate and gate implantations in the logic transistors.

An integrated circuit includes memory cells having array transistors separated by minimum lithographic feature and unsilicided metal bit lines encapsulated by a diffusion barrier while high performance logic transistors may be formed on the same chip without compromise of performance including an effective channel, silicided contacts for low source/drain contact resistance, extension and halo implants for control of short channel effects and a dual work function semiconductor gate having a high impurity concentration and correspondingly thin depletion layer thickness commensurate with state of the art gate dielectric thickness. This structure is achieved by development of thick/tall structures of differing materials using a mask or anti-spacer, preferably of an easily planarized material, and using a similar mask planarized to the height of the structures of differing materials to decouple substrate and gate implantations in the logic transistors.

A method and system for forming a thermoelement for a thermoelectric cooler is provided. In one embodiment a substrate having a plurality of pointed tips covered by a metallic layer is formed. Portions of the metallic layer are covered by an insulator and other portions of the metallic layer are exposed. Next, a patterned layer of thermoelectric material is formed by depositions extending from the exposed portions of the metallic layer in the presence of a deposition mask. Finally, a metallic layer is formed to selectively contact the patterned layer of thermoelectric material.
