The authors present for the first time the full integration scheme and 512Mb product data for a trench DRAM technology targeting the 58nm node. The key technology enablers such as an extended U-shape cell device (EUD), high performance support devices, trench capacitor with metal-insulator-silicon (MIS)/high-k dielectric and metal-in-collar (MIC), and low-k inter-level dielectric (ILD) are demonstrated

Time-dependent capacitance-density (CD) increase and linearity degradations of HfAlO-MIM capacitors by constant voltage stress were demonstrated for the first time. It was found that extrapolated CD increase after 10 years strongly depends on Al concentration in HfAlO dielectric. Accordingly, Al concentration of more than 14 at.% is required to keep CD increase below 1%. It was also found that the CD increase and linearity degradations (temperature and frequency) originate from the dielectric-loss increase and that the relationships between these parameters quantitatively agree with Gevers' model

We report on a novel thermal select (TS) MRAM with multilevel programming capability. Exchange bias pinning of a magnetic free layer (FL) was used to achieve a thermally stable bit and to reduce writing currents. This report shows experimental data for a TS-based magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) with a size of 50 times90 nm2, the smallest size reported so far. Multilevel capability with 2 bits per 1-transistor and 1-MTJ (1T1MTJ) is also demonstrated on a 70 times 140 nm2 MTJ. With the advanced 2-bit cell concept, a 70% increase in effective bit density can be achieved at 65 nm technology node

We fabricated [100] and [110] directed nano wire MOSFET (NWFET), which works as NFET and PFET in the same channel. By comparing [100] and [110] direction, significantly small threshold voltage (Vth) fluctuation is experimentally observed in [110] PFET for the first time. This result supports the superiority of [110] NW PFET. Extremely narrow NWFET works as single-electron/single-hole transistors (SET/SHT). By comparing [100] and [110] direction, channel direction dependence of Coulomb blockade (CB) oscillations is experimentally clarified for the first time. We realize the highest performance in [100] SHT

The impact of defects on the short channel effects (SCE) and the drivability of a pMOSFET with a SiGe source/drain is described, and useful methods to reduce defect formation are suggested. The influence of defects on device performance is found to become more severe as recess depth increases and/or channel length decreases. By optimizing the epitaxial process, including an in-situ precleaning step, the initial defect density is reduced, and by introducing a cap layer on a SiGe layer, the thermal stability of the SiGe layer is improved. The optimized devices enhance mobility 42% by maximizing the strain effect and provide better SCE characteristics by suppressing boron diffusion

A double-layer TFT NAND-type flash memory is demonstrated, ushering into the era of three-dimensional (3D) flash memory. A TFT device using bandgap engineered SONOS (BE-SONOS) (Lue et al., 2005, Lai et al., 2006) with fully-depleted (FD) poly silicon (60 nm) channel and tri-gate P+-poly gate is integrated into a NAND array. Small devices (L/W=0.2/0.09 mum) with excellent performance and reliability properties are achieved. The bottom layer shows no sign of reliability degradation compared to the top layer, indicating the potential for further multi-layer stacking. The present work illustrates the feasibility of 3D flash memory

Fully CMOS compatible silicon-nanowire (SiNW) gate-all-around (GAA) n- and p-MOS transistors are fabricated with nanowire channel in different crystal orientations and characterized at various temperatures down to 5K. SiNW width is controlled in 1 nm steps and varied from 3 to 6 nm. Devices show high drive current (2.4 mA/mum for n-FET, 1.3 mA/mum for p-FET), excellent gate control, and reduced sensitivity to temperature. Strong evidences of carrier confinement are noticed in term of Id-Vg oscillations and shift in threshold voltage with SiNW diameter. Orientation impact has been investigated as well

This paper compares, for the first time, the scalability of physical- and chemical-vapor-deposited (PVD and CVD) TiN on HfO2 as a gate stack for FDSOI cMOSFETs down to 25nm gate length and width. It is shown that not only the intrinsic material properties but also the device architecture strongly influences the final gate stack properties. Reliability issues, stress and gate control in the sub-35nm scale are reported and explained, thanks to material, electric data and mechanical simulations. In spite of its lower performance on large device dimensions, PVD-TiN demonstrates a better overall trade-off, leading to a 17% ion improvement on 25nm short and narrow devices
