    摘要: In a method of making a semiconductor device, a gate dielectric is formed over the semiconductor body. A floating gate is formed over the gate dielectric, an insulating region over the floating gate, and a control gate over the insulating region. The gate dielectric, floating gate, insulating region, and control gate constitute a gate stack. A stress is caused in the gate stack, whereby the band gap of the gate dielectric is changed by the stress.

    摘要: A semiconductor device can be formed without use of an STI process. An insulating layer is formed over a semiconductor body. Portions of the insulating layer are removed to expose the semiconductor body, e.g., to expose bare silicon. A semiconductor material, e.g., silicon, is grown over the exposed semiconductor body. A device, such as a transistor, can then be formed in the grown semiconductor material.

    摘要: In a method of forming a semiconductor device, a wafer includes a first semiconductor region of a first crystal orientation and a second semiconductor region of a second crystal orientation. Insulating material is formed over the wafer. A first portion of the insulating material is removed to expose the first semiconductor region and a second portion of the insulating material is removed to expose the second semiconductor region. Semiconductor material of the first crystal orientation is epitaxially grown over the exposed first semiconductor region and semiconductor material of the second crystal orientation is epitaxially grown over the exposed second semiconductor region.

    摘要: A method of making a semiconductor device begins with a semiconductor wafer that includes a first semiconductor layer overlying a second semiconductor layer. A first trench is etched in the semiconductor wafer. The first trench is filled with insulating material. A second trench is etched within the first trench and through the insulating material, such that insulating material remains along sidewalls of the first trench. The second trench exposes a portion of the second insulating layer. A semiconductor layer can then be grown within the second trench using the second semiconductor layer as a seed layer.

    摘要: Flash memory device structures and methods of manufacture thereof are disclosed. The flash memory devices are manufactured on silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrates. Shallow trench isolation (STI) regions and the buried oxide layer of the SOI substrate are used to isolate adjacent devices from one another. The methods of manufacture require fewer lithography masks and may be implemented in stand-alone flash memory devices, embedded flash memory devices, and system on a chip (SoC) flash memory devices.
