    摘要: Various embodiments of the present application are directed to an IC, and associated forming methods. In some embodiments, the IC comprises a memory region and a logic region integrated into a substrate. A memory cell structure is disposed on the memory region. A plurality of logic devices is disposed on the logic region. A first logic device comprises a first logic gate electrode separated from the substrate by a first logic gate dielectric. The first logic gate dielectric is disposed along surfaces of a logic device trench of the substrate, and the first logic gate electrode is disposed on the first logic gate dielectric within the logic device trench. By arranging the first logic gate electrode within the logic device trench, metal layer loss and the resulted sheet resistance and threshold voltage variations and mismatch issues caused by the subsequent planarization process can be improved.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a method of forming an integrated circuit (IC). In some embodiments, a substrate is provided comprising a memory region and a logic region disposed adjacent to the memory region. The memory region comprises a non-volatile memory (NVM) device having a control gate electrode and a select gate electrode disposed between two neighboring source/drain regions over a substrate. The control gate electrode and the select gate electrode comprise polysilicon. The logic region comprises a logic device including a metal gate electrode disposed between two neighboring source/drain regions over a logic gate dielectric and having bottom and sidewall surfaces covered by a high-k gate dielectric layer.

    摘要: In some embodiments, the present disclosure relates to a method of forming an integrated chip. The method includes forming a plurality of memory devices within an embedded memory region of a substrate and forming a plurality of transistor devices within a logic region of the substrate. A first isolation structure is formed within a boundary region of the substrate disposed between the logic region and the embedded memory region. The first isolation structure is formed within a recess in the substrate. A logic wall is formed over the first isolation structure. The logic wall surrounds the embedded memory region and has a first height that is greater than heights of the plurality of memory devices.

    摘要: In some embodiments, the present disclosure relates to an integrated chip. The integrated chip includes a logic region having a plurality of transistor devices disposed within a substrate, an embedded memory region having a plurality of memory devices disposed within the substrate, and a boundary region separating the logic region from the embedded memory region. The boundary region includes a first isolation structure having a first upper surface and a second upper surface below the first upper surface. The first and second upper surfaces are coupled by an interior sidewall overlying the first isolation structure. The boundary region further includes a memory wall arranged on the second upper surface and surrounding the embedded memory region, and a logic wall arranged on the first upper surface and surrounding the memory wall. The logic wall has an upper surface that is above the plurality of memory devices and the memory wall.
