摘要: A CMOS semiconductor structure having insulation sidewall spacers whose width is selected independently for NMOS and PMOS devices. The width of the spacer is selected to reduce hot electron injection in the N channel device and to insure that the gate and source regions are aligned with or underlap the gate in the P channel device. A narrower spacer is used for the P channel device than for the N channel device which permits the formation of a P channel device having a threshold voltage less than 1 volt.

摘要: A treated conductive element is provided. A conductive element can be treated by depositing either a reactive metal or a very thin layer of material on the conductive element. The reactive metal (or very thin layer of material) would typically be sandwiched between the conductive element and an electrode. The structure additionally exhibits non-linear IV characteristics, which can be favorable in certain arrays.

摘要: Multiple modes of operation in a cross point array. The invention is a cross point array that uses a read voltage across a conductive array line pair during a read mode. The read voltage produces a read current that is indicative of a first program state when the read current is at a first level and indicative of a second program state when the read current is at a second level. The read current is ineffective to produce a change in program state. A first voltage pulse is used during a first write mode if a change from a second program state to a first program state is desired. A second voltage pulse is used during a second write mode if a change from the first program state to the second program state is desired.

摘要: A composite dielectric layer (102). A first layer (112) of the composite dielectric layer (102) has a small to no nitrogen concentration. A second layer (114) of the composite dielectric layer (102) has a larger nitrogen concentration (e.g., 5-15%). The composite dielectric layer (102) may be used as a thin gate dielectric wherein the second layer (114) is located adjacent a doped gate electrode (110) and has sufficient nitrogen concentration to stop penetration of dopant from the gate electrode (110) to the channel region (108). The first layer (112) is located between the second layer (114) and the channel region (108). The low nitrogen concentration of the first layer (112) is limited so as to not interfere with carrier mobility in the channel region (108).

摘要: A method to simplify the polycide gate structure fabrication processes by using a hardmask 240 to define a pattern of siliciding 260 a silicon layer 230, and then using the silicide 260 to mask removal of the unreacted silicon 220 and 230 in locations where the hardmask 240 had been present. The metal silicide 260 formed in the exposed silicon regions 220 and 230 functions as a self-aligned mask against the silicon 220 and 230 etching. By using a selective etching process between the silicon 220 and 230 and the silicide 260, the silicon 220 and 230 can be etched down to the gate oxide 210 to form the polycide (silicide/polysilicon) gate. The polycide gate formed by this method is particularly advantageous in DRAM applications, but can also be used as a MOS gate in a transistor.
