Fabrication of body-tied FinFETs (Omega MOSFETs) using bulk Si wafers

Nano scale body-tied FinFETs have been firstly fabricated. They have fin top width of 30 nm, fin bottom width of 61 nm, fin height of 99 nm, and gate length of 60 nm. This Omega MOSFET shows excellent transistor characteristics, such as very low subthreshold swing, Drain Induced Barrier Lowering (DIBL) of 24 mV/V, almost no body bias effect, and orders of magnitude lower I/sub SUB//I/sub D/ than planar type DRAM cell transistors.

Highly Reliable 256Mb PRAM with Advanced Ring Contact Technology and Novel Encapsulating Technology

Advanced ring type technology and encapsulating scheme were developed to fabricate highly manufacturable and reliable 256Mb PRAM. Very uniform BEC area was prepared by the advanced ring type technology in which core dielectrics were optimized for cell contact CMP process. In addition, relatively high set resistance was stabilized from encapsulating Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST) stack with blocking layers, thus giving rise to a wide sensing window. These advanced ring type and encapsulating technologies can provide great potentials of developing high density 512Mb PRAM and beyond
