摘要:
The invention includes semiconductor constructions containing optically saturable absorption layers. An optically saturable absorption layer can be between photoresist and a topography, with the topography having two or more surfaces of differing reflectivity relative to one another. The invention also includes methods of patterning photoresist in which a saturable absorption layer is provided between the photoresist and a topography with surfaces of differing reflectivity, and in which the differences in reflectivity are utilized to enhance the accuracy with which an image is photolithographically formed in the photoresist.
摘要:
A memory structure having a vertically oriented access transistor with an annular gate region and a method for fabricating the structure. More specifically, a transistor is fabricated such that the channel of the transistor extends outward with respect to the surface of the substrate. An annular gate is fabricated around the vertical channel such that it partially or completely surrounds the channel. A buried annular bitline may also be implemented. After the vertically oriented transistor is fabricated with the annular gate, a storage device may be fabricated over the transistor to provide a memory cell.

An electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection device connects to a bonding pad and an internal circuit for protecting the internal circuit during an ESD event. The ESD protection device includes a transistor connected between the bonding pad and a supply node. The transistor includes a first doped region having a textured surface connected to the bonding pad, and a second doped region having a textured surface connected to the supply node.
