Abstract: In the disclosure, a non-volatile memory device includes a resistive memory cell and a write and read circuit. The write and read circuit is coupled to the resistive memory cell and configured to combine a perturbation AC signal with a first writing signal, so as to generate a second writing signal. Then, the write and read circuit applies the second writing signal to the resistive memory cell to program the resistive memory cell. The combination of the oscillation signal and the first writing signal (constant DC signal) and AC signal would penetrate the shielding effect of the insulating layer and free the stuck charges.

Abstract: Operations for integrating thermoelectric devices in Fin FET technology may be implemented in a semiconductor device having a thermoelectric device. The thermoelectric device includes a substrate and a fin structure disposed on the substrate. The thermoelectric device includes a first connecting layer and a second connecting layer disposed on opposing ends of the fin structure. The thermoelectric device includes a first thermal conductive structure thermally and a second thermal conductive structure thermally coupled to the opposing ends of the fin structure. The fin structure may be configured to transfer heat from one of the first thermal conductive structure or the second thermal conductive structure to the other thermal conductive structure based on a direction of current flow through the fin structure. In this regard, the current flow may be adjusted by a power circuit electrically coupled to the thermoelectric device.

Abstract: A method of writing to a magnetic random access memory cell includes applying an alternating current signal to the magnetic random access memory cell having a first magnetic orientation, and applying a direct current pulse to the magnetic random access memory cell to change the magnetic orientation of the magnetic random access memory cell from the first magnetic orientation to a second magnetic orientation. The first magnetic orientation and the second magnetic orientation are different.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing an array of magnetic random access memory cells includes writing to a magnetic random access memory cell. The writing to a memory cell includes determining an optimum write current for the array of memory cells, and applying the optimum write current to a first memory cell in the array. A first read current is applied to the first memory cell to determine whether a magnetic orientation of the first memory cell has changed in response to applying the optimum write current. A second write current is applied to the first memory cell when the magnetic orientation of the first memory cell has not changed. The second write current is different from the optimum write current. A second read current is applied to the first memory cell to determine whether the magnetic orientation of the first memory cell changed in response to applying the second write current.

Abstract: A transistor includes source region and drain regions, a channel region, a drift region, a gate, a dummy gate, a gate dielectric layer and an interconnection line. The source and drain regions of a first conductivity type are in a substrate. The channel region of a second conductivity type is in the substrate and surrounds the source region. The drift region of the first conductivity type is beneath the drain region and extends toward the channel region. The gate is over the substrate and overlapped with the channel region and the drift region. The dummy gate is over the drift region and laterally adjacent to the gate. The gate dielectric layer is between the gate and the substrate and between the dummy gate and the drift region. The interconnection line is electrically connected to the dummy gate and configured to provide a voltage potential thereto.
