    摘要: A method is disclosed for etching a polysilicon material in a manner that prevents formation of an abnormal polysilicon profile. The method includes providing a substrate with a word line and depositing a polysilicon layer over said substrate and word line. An organic bottom antireflective coating (BARC) layer is then deposited over said polysilicon layer. A ladder etch is performed to remove the BARC layer and a portion of the polysilicon layer. The ladder etch consists of a series of etch cycles, with each cycle including a breakthrough etch and a soft landing etch. The breakthrough and soft landing etches are performed using different etchant gases, and at different source and bias powers, pressures, gas flow rates, and periods of time. The ladder etch results in a smooth polysilicon surface without abrupt steps.

    摘要: An improved magnetoresistive memory device has a reduced distance between the magnetic memory element and a conductive memory line used for writing to the magnetic memory element. The reduced distance is facilitated by forming the improved magnetoresistive memory device according to a method that includes forming a mask over the magnetoresistive memory element and forming an insulating layer over the mask layer, then removing portions of the insulating layer using a planarization process. A conductive via can then be formed in the mask layer, for example using a damascene process. The conductive memory line can then be formed over the mask layer and conductive via.

    摘要: A spacer, a split gate flash memory cell, and related method of forming the same. In one aspect, a composite spacer includes a first spacer insulating layer having a first deposition distribution that varies as a function of a location on a substrate. The composite spacer also includes a second spacer insulating layer having a second deposition distribution that varies in substantial opposition to the first deposition distribution. In another aspect, a composite spacer includes a first spacer insulating layer having a substantially uniform deposition distribution across a surface thereof. The composite spacer also includes a second spacer insulating layer having a varying deposition distribution with a thinner composition in selected regions of the memory cell. In another aspect, a coupling spacer provides for a conductive layer that extends between a floating gate and a substrate insulating layer adjacent a source recessed into the substrate of the memory cell.
