    摘要: The present invention provides a selectively conductive organic semiconductor (e.g., polymer) device that can be utilized as a memory cell. A polymer solution including a conducting polymer self assembles relative to a conductive electrode. The process affords self-assembly such that a shortest conductive path can be achieved. The method includes depositing a concentrated solution of conducting polymer on a conductive surface, applying heat and optionally a vacuum, and permitting the conducting polymer to self-assemble into an organic semiconductor. The organic semiconductor can be employed within single and multi-cell memory devices by forming a structure with two or more electrodes while employing the organic semiconductor along with a passive device between the electrodes. A partitioning component can be integrated with the memory device to facilitate programming and stacking of additional memory cells on top of or in association with previously formed cells.

    摘要: The present invention provides a planar polymer memory device that can operate as a non-volatile memory device. A planar polymer memory device can be formed with two or more electrodes and an electrode extension associated with one electrode, wherein a selectively conductive medium and dielectric separate the electrodes. The method for forming a planar polymer memory device comprises at least one of forming a first electrode with an associated plug, forming a second electrode, forming a passive layer over the extension, depositing an organic polymer and patterning the organic polymer. The method affords integration of a planar polymer memory device into a semiconductor fabrication process. A thin film diode (TFD) can further be employed with a planar polymer memory device to facilitate programming. The TFD can be formed between the first electrode and the selectively conductive medium or the second electrode and the selectively conductive medium.

    摘要: A methodology for forming a memory cell is disclosed, wherein an organic polymer layer is formed over a conductive layer and an electrode layer is formed over the organic polymer layer. A first via is etched into the electrode and organic polymer layers, and a dielectric material is applied over the stack to at least fill in the first via. A second via is then etched into the dielectric material so as to expose and make the electrode layer available as a top electrode. A wordline is then formed over the dielectric material such that the top electrode is connected to the wordline by way of the second via. A memory device formed in accordance with the disclosed methodology includes a top electrode formed over an organic polymer layer, a conductive layer under the organic polymer layer, a via defined by a dielectric material and located above the top electrode, and a wordline formed over the dielectric material such that the top electrode is connected to the wordline by way of the via.

    摘要: An integrated circuit and manufacturing method therefor is provided having a semiconductor substrate with a semiconductor device and a device dielectric layer formed on the semiconductor substrate. A channel dielectric layer on the device dielectric layer has a channel opening, a barrier layer lining the channel opening, and a conductor core filling the channel opening. The barrier layer has a more negative heat of formation than the channel dielectric layer whereby the barrier layer is reacts with and forms a barrier to diffusion of the material of the conductor core to the channel dielectric layer. The barrier layer also forms a stable compound with the conductor core to form a coherent barrier layer bonding the channel dielectric to the conductor core.
