    Abstract: An integrated circuit with a multilayer bottom electrode, and a corresponding method for manufacturing the integrated circuit, are provided. An insulating layer includes an opening, and a bottom electrode substantially fills the opening. The bottom electrode includes a plurality of layers laterally or vertically stacked upon each other, and lining the opening. The layers of the plurality include corresponding surfaces facing an interior of the opening and extending respectively at angles relative to a top surface of the bottom electrode. Further, the layers of the plurality include corresponding regions of increased resistance or height extending along the corresponding surfaces. A dielectric layer is arranged over the insulating layer and the bottom electrode, and a top electrode arranged over the dielectric layer.

    Abstract: Some embodiments relate to a resistive random access memory (RRAM). The RRAM includes a RRAM bottom metal electrode, a variable resistance dielectric layer arranged over the RRAM bottom metal electrode, and a RRAM top metal electrode arranged over the variable resistance dielectric layer. A capping layer is arranged over the RRAM top metal electrode. A lower surface of the capping layer and an upper surface of the RRAM top metal electrode meet at an interface. Protective sidewalls are adjacent to outer sidewalls of the RRAM top metal electrode. The protective sidewalls have upper surfaces at least substantially aligned to the interface at which the upper surface of the RRAM top metal electrode meets the lower surface of the capping layer.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a semiconductor device and a manufacturing method, and more particularly to a semiconductor device having an enhanced gap fill layer in trenches. The present disclosure provides a novel gap fill layer formed using a multi-step deposition and in-situ treatment process. The deposition process can be a flowable chemical vapor deposition (FCVD) utilizing one or more assist gases and molecules of low reactive sticking coefficient (RSC). The treatment process can be an in-situ process after the deposition process and includes exposing the deposited gap fill layer to plasma activated assist gas. The assist gas can be formed of ammonia. The low RSC molecule can be formed of trisilylamin (TSA) or perhydropolysilazane (PHPS).
