摘要: A method of wafer verification for split manufacturing is provided. The method includes capturing images of one or more different wafer features during manufacturing using a fiducial marker. The method further includes comparing the images from one stage to a next stage for at least two stages of manufacturing to verify a wafer identification based on a matching of the one of more different wafer features from the one stage to the next stage.

摘要: A field effect transistor (FET) cell structure of an integrated circuit (IC) is provided. The FET cell structure includes first and second adjacent cells. Each of the first and second adjacent cells spans a first layer and a second layer. The second layer is vertically stacked on the first layer. The first cell includes n-doped FETs (NFETs) on one of the first and second layers and p-doped FETs (PFETs) on another of the first and second layers. The second cell includes at least one of a number of NFETs on the one of the first and second layers differing from a number of the NFETs in the first cell and a number of PFETs on the another of the first and second layers differing from a number of the PFETs in the first cell.

摘要: A semiconductor structure is provided in which a phase change memory (PCM) device region including a PCM is located in a back side of a wafer. A PCM device back side source/drain contact structure connects the PCM to a first source/drain structure of a first field effect transistor (FET) that is present in a front side of the wafer, the second source/drain structure of the first FET is connected to a front side BEOL structure by a front side source/drain contact structure. A logic device region and/or an analog device region can be located laterally adjacent to the PCM device region. A back side power distribution network can be present in the logic device region and/or an analog device region.

摘要: Embodiments of present invention provide a static random-access-memory (SRAM) device. The SRAM device includes a first set of nanosheets used in an n-type transistor; and a second set of nanosheets with one or more nanosheets of the second set of nanosheets used in a p-type transistor, wherein a width of the second set of nanosheets is wider than a width of the first set of nanosheets. In one embodiment the p-type transistor is used as a pull-up transistor and the n-type transistor is used as a pull-down transistor or a pass-gate transistor. A method of manufacturing the SRAM device is also provided.

摘要: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to methods and resulting structures for nanosheet devices having asymmetric gate stacks. In a non-limiting embodiment of the invention, a nanosheet stack is formed over a substrate. The nanosheet stack includes alternating semiconductor layers and sacrificial layers. A sacrificial liner is formed over the nanosheet stack and a dielectric gate structure is formed over the nanosheet stack and the sacrificial liner. A first inner spacer is formed on a sidewall of the sacrificial layers. A gate is formed over channel regions of the nanosheet stack. The gate includes a conductive bridge that extends over the substrate in a direction orthogonal to the nanosheet stack. A second inner spacer is formed on a sidewall of the gate. The first inner spacer is formed prior to the gate stack, while the second inner spacer is formed after, and consequently, the gate stack is asymmetrical.

摘要: A method for using a distributed memory device in a memory augmented neural network system includes receiving, by a controller, an input query to access data stored in the distributed memory device, the distributed memory device comprising a plurality of memory banks. The method further includes determining, by the controller, a memory bank selector that identifies a memory bank from the distributed memory device for memory access, wherein the memory bank selector is determined based on a type of workload associated with the input query. The method further includes computing, by the controller and by using content based access, a memory address in the identified memory bank. The method further includes generating, by the controller, an output in response to the input query by accessing the memory address.
