Memory Device Etch Methods

US Patent:
7670959, Mar 2, 2010
Filed:
Dec 26, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/616085
Inventors:
Angela T. Hui - Fremont CA, US
Jihwan Choi - San Mateo CA, US
Assignee:
Spansion LLC - Sunnyvale CA
Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. - Sunnyvale CA
International Classification:
H01L 21/302
H01L 21/461
US Classification:
438714, 257E21249
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a memory device forms a first dielectric layer over a substrate, forms a charge storage layer over the first dielectric layer, forms a second dielectric layer over the charge storage layer, and forms a control gate layer over the second dielectric layer. The method also forms a hard mask layer over the control gate layer, forms a bottom anti-reflective coating (BARC) layer over the hard mask layer, and provides an etch chemistry that includes tetrafluoromethane (CF) and trifluoromethane (CHF) to etch at least the control gate layer.

Self-Aligned Patterning Method By Using Non-Conformal Film And Etch Back For Flash Memory And Other Semiconductor Applications

US Patent:
7732276, Jun 8, 2010
Filed:
Apr 26, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/796582
Inventors:
Shenqing Fang - Fremont CA, US
Jihwan Choi - San Mateo CA, US
Calvin Gabriel - Cupertino CA, US
Fei Wang - San Jose CA, US
Angela Hui - Fremont CA, US
Alexander Nickel - Santa Clara CA, US

Assignee:
Spansion LLC - Sunnyvale CA
International Classification:
H01L 21/336
US Classification:
438257, 257E293, 257315
Abstract:
A method for fabricating a memory device with a self-aligned trap layer which is optimized for scaling is disclosed. In the present invention, a non-conformal film is deposited over the charge trapping layer to form a thick film on top of the core source/drain region and a pinch off and a void or a narrow channel at the top of the STI trench. An etch is performed on the non-conformal film to open pinch-off or widen the narrow channel in the non-conformal. The trapping layer is then completely or partially etched between the core cells. The non-conformal film is removed. And a top oxide is formed. The top oxide converts the remaining trap layer to oxide if the trapping layer is partially etched and thus isolate the trap layer.

Systems And Methods For Computing A Relative Path Delay Between Multiple Transmission Sources

US Patent:
7782751, Aug 24, 2010
Filed:
Jul 21, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/176976
Inventors:
Jungwon Lee - Cupertino CA, US
Jiwoong Choi - Santa Clara CA, US
Jihwan P. Choi - San Jose CA, US
Assignee:
Marvell International Ltd. - Hamilton
International Classification:
H04J 11/00
H04J 3/06
US Classification:
370206, 370252, 370350
Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for computing a relative path delay between multiple transmitting source to select a source that is closest to a receiving device. Preamble sequences unique to each source are received by a receiving device. The receiving devices determines based on a channel estimation or differential algorithm which transmitting source is closer to the receiving device. The channel estimation algorithm computes the path delay based on a channel estimation correlation at different preamble sequence indices. The differential algorithm computes the path delay based on a correlation between the received and transmitted preamble sequences at different preamble sequence indices. The receiving device selects the closer of the multiple sources to be the source from which to extract data.

Hto Offset And Bl Trench Process For Memory Device To Improve Device Performance

US Patent:
7935596, May 3, 2011
Filed:
Dec 22, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/342008
Inventors:
Ning Cheng - San Jose CA, US
Huaqiang Wu - Burlingame CA, US
Hiro Kinoshita - San Jose CA, US
Jihwan Choi - San Mateo CA, US
Assignee:
Spansion LLC - Sunnyvale CA
International Classification:
H01L 21/336
US Classification:
438257, 438261, 438265, 438287, 257E29309, 257E21423
Abstract:
Memory devices having an increased effective channel length and/or improved TPD characteristics, and methods of making the memory devices are provided. The memory devices contain two or more memory cells on a semiconductor substrate and bit line dielectrics between the memory cells. The bit line dielectrics can extend into the semiconductor. The memory cell contains a charge trapping dielectric stack, a poly gate, a pair of pocket implant regions, and a pair of bit lines. The bit line can be formed by an implant process at a higher energy level and/or a higher concentration of dopants without suffering device short channel roll off issues because spacers at bit line sidewalls constrain the implant in narrower implant regions.

12/342011
Inventors:
Huaqiang Wu - Burlingame CA, US
Hiro Kinoshita - San Jose CA, US
Ning Cheng - San Jose CA, US
Arturo Ruiz - San Jose CA, US
Jihwan Choi - San Mateo CA, US
Assignee:
Spansion LLC - Sunnyvale CA
International Classification:
H01L 21/336
H01L 27/115
US Classification:
257324, 257E21679, 257E27103, 438257
Abstract:
Memory devices having an increased effective channel length and/or improved TPD characteristics, and methods of making the memory devices are provided. The memory devices contain two or more memory cells on a semiconductor substrate and bit line dielectrics between the memory cells. The memory cell contains a pair of first bit lines and a pair of second bit lines. The first and second bit lines can be formed by an implant process using first and second spacers that have different lateral lengths from each other. The spacers can be used to offset the implants, thereby controlling the lateral lengths of the bit lines.

Initial Ranging Power Control Algorithm For Wimax Mobile Stations

US Patent:
7961641, Jun 14, 2011
Filed:
Apr 24, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/109320
Inventors:
Jihwan P. Choi - Santa Clara CA, US
Jiwon S. Han - San Ramon CA, US
Jungwon Lee - Cupertino CA, US
Assignee:
Marvell International Ltd. - Hamilton
International Classification:
H04J 1/16
US Classification:
370252, 370241, 455421, 455425
Abstract:
A device and method for connecting to a WiMAX network can determine an initial signal strength as a function of an uplink propagation path loss between a mobile device and a base station, a noise and interference level value for the base station, a normalized carrier-to-noise value for ranging, and an offset value. If a connection is not established at the initial signal strength, a signal can be retransmitted at a signal strength equal to the initial signal strength plus a step value, where the step value can be determined by designating a fixed number of steps to be used before reaching maximum transmission power.
