摘要:
A system and method for providing copper interconnect in a trench formed in a dielectric is disclosed. In one aspect, the method and system include providing a copper layer; removing a portion of the copper layer outside of the trench; annealing the copper layer; and providing a layer disposed above the copper layer. In another aspect, the method and system include providing a copper interconnect formed in a trench on a dielectric. The copper interconnect includes a copper layer disposed in the trench and a layer disposed above the copper layer. The copper layer has a bamboo structure at least one grain. The at least one grain has substantially one orientation.

A self-adjusting parking brake actuator includes a brake lever that is movable between brake-released and brake-applied positions. In addition, the parking brake cable adjust system includes a self-adjustment assembly having a frame; a rack mounted for movement relative to the frame along a longitudinal direction of the rack in a tension direction and an opposite direction; a cable connector for operatively connecting the rack to a brake cable, a first resilient member biasing the rack relative to the frame along its longitudinal direction in the tensioning direction, a primary locking device configured to engage the rack and permit movement of the rack relative to the frame in the tensioning direction only; a secondary locking device moveable between (a) a locking to lock the primary locking device to prevent adjusting movement of the rack relative to the frame in the tensioning direction, and (b) a releasing position to permit the primary locking device to allow adjusting movement of the rack relative to the frame in the tensioning direction by the biasing of the resilient member; and a second resilient member biasing the secondary locking device to the locking position.

A method of manufacturing an integrated circuit (IC) can utilizes semiconductor substrate configured in accordance with a trench process. The substrate utilizes trenches in a base layer to induce stress in a layer. The substrate can include silicon. The trenches define pillars on a back side of a bulk substrate or base layer of a semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) wafer.

An ultraviolet light absorbent silicon oxynitride layer overlies a memory cell including a pair of source/drains, a gate insulator, a floating gate, a dielectric layer, and a control gate. A conductor is disposed through the silicon oxynitride layer for electrical connection to the control gate, and another conductor is disposed through the silicon oxynitride layer for electrical connection to a source/drain.

Planarized STI with minimized topography is formed by selectively etching back the dielectric trench fill with respect to the polish stop film prior to removing the polish stop film. Embodiments include etching back a silicon oxide trench filled to a depth of about 200 Å to about 1,500 Å, and then stripping a silicon nitride polish stop layer leaving a substantially planarized surface, thereby improving the accuracy of subsequent gate electrode patterning and reducing stringers.
摘要:
A method of forming an integrated circuit and a structure therefore is provided. A gate dielectric is formed on a semiconductor substrate, and a gate is formed over the gate dielectric. Shallow source/drain junctions are formed in the semiconductor substrate. A sidewall spacer is formed around the gate. Deep source/drain junctions are formed in the semiconductor substrate using the sidewall spacer. A siliciding spacer is formed over the sidewall spacer after forming the shallow and deep source/drain junctions. A silicide is formed on the deep source/drain junctions adjacent the siliciding spacer, and a dielectric layer is deposited above the semiconductor substrate. Contacts are then formed in the dielectric layer to the silicide.
