摘要: In a non-limiting embodiment, a memory array is provided having a transistor device. The transistor device includes transistor device first, second and third doped regions in a substrate. The transistor device further includes a first transistor device select gate over a region between the transistor device first doped region and the transistor device second doped region, and a second transistor device select gate over a region between the transistor device first doped region and the transistor device third doped region. The transistor device further includes a transistor device dielectric barrier extending between the first transistor device select gate and the second transistor device select gate. A width of the dielectric barrier compared to a width of the first transistor device select gate and/or the second transistor device select gate may have a ratio ranging from 0.33:1 to 5:1.

摘要: Devices and methods of forming a device are disclosed. The method includes providing a substrate and a first upper dielectric layer over first and second regions of the substrate. The first upper dielectric layer includes a first upper interconnect level with a plurality of metal lines in the regions. A two-terminal device element which includes a device layer coupled in between first and second terminals is formed over the first upper dielectric layer in the second region. The first terminal contacts the metal line in the first upper interconnect level of the second region and the second terminal is formed on the device layer. An encapsulation liner covers at least exposed side surfaces of the device layer of the two-terminal device element. A dielectric layer which includes a second upper interconnect level with dual damascene interconnects is provided in the regions. The dual damascene interconnect in the first region is coupled to the metal line in the first region and the dual damascene interconnect in the second region is coupled to the two-terminal device element.

摘要: A scalable method of forming an integrated high-density STT-MRAM with a 3D array of multi-level MTJs and the resulting devices are provided. Embodiments include providing a Si substrate of an X-density STT-MRAM having an array of interconnect stacks; forming a level of a MTJ structure on each of a first interconnect stack and a second interconnect stack, wherein (X−1) defines a number of interconnect stacks between the first and the second interconnect stacks; forming a via on each interconnect stack without a MTJ structure; forming a metal layer on each MTJ structure and via on the level; repeating the forming of the MTJ structure, the via, and the metal layer one interconnect stack laterally shifted until the level of the MTJ structure equals X, only forming the MTJ structure at that level; forming a bit line over the substrate; and connecting the bit line to each MTJ structure.
