Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate including an active pattern, a channel pattern and a source/drain pattern that are on the active pattern and connected to each other, and an active contact electrically connected to the source/drain pattern. The active contact includes a first barrier metal and a first filler metal on the first barrier metal, and the first barrier metal includes a metal nitride layer. The first filler metal includes at least one of molybdenum, tungsten, ruthenium, cobalt, or vanadium. The first filler metal includes a first crystalline region having a body-centered cubic (BCC) structure and a second crystalline region having a face-centered cubic (FCC) structure. A proportion of the first crystalline region in the first filler metal ranges from 60% to 99%.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and systems for providing a variable capacitance using an array of capacitor cells are discussed. In the fine tuning bank of an inductor/capacitor (LC)-tank of a digitally controlled oscillator (DCO), control is implemented by selecting a boundary cell from the array of capacitor cells and having every cell before the boundary cell in a circuit path be grounded and having the boundary cell and every cell after the boundary cell in the circuit path be connected to a voltage source. The circuit path may be the one formed by using thermometer coding in the fine tuning bank.
