摘要： This invention comprises a method to make small MTJ element using hybrid etching and oxygen plasma immersion ion implantation. The method has no removal of the magnetic free layer (or memory layer) and hence prevents any possible physical damage near the free layer edges. After photolithography patterning, alternative Ta, Ru, Ta etchings are performed before it stops on an MgO intermediate layer above the free layer. Then an oxygen plasma immersion ion implantation is performed to completely oxidize the exposed portion of the free layer, leaving the hard mask covered portion unchanged which define the lateral width of the MTJ element.

摘要： A STT-RAM MTJ is disclosed with a composite tunnel barrier comprised of a CoMgO layer that contacts a pinned layer and a MgO layer which contacts a free layer. A CoMg layer with a Co content between 20 and 40 atomic % is deposited on the pinned layer and is then oxidized to produce Co nanoconstrictions within a MgO insulator matrix. The nanoconstrictions control electromigration of Co into an adjoining MgO layer. The free layer may comprise a nanocurrent channel (NCC) layer such as FeSiO or a moment dilution layer such as Ta between two ferromagnetic layers. Furthermore, a second CoMgO layer or a CoMgO/MgO composite may serve as a perpendicular Hk enhancing layer formed between the free layer and a cap layer. One or both of the pinned layer and free layer may exhibit in-plane anisotropy or perpendicular magnetic anisotropy.

摘要： Methods of forming magnetic memory cells are disclosed. Magnetic and non-magnetic materials are formed into a primal precursor structure in an initial stress state of essentially no strain, compressive strain, or tensile strain. A stress-compensating material, e.g., a non-sacrificial, conductive material, is formed to be disposed on the primal precursor structure to form a stress-compensated precursor structure in a net beneficial stress state. Thereafter, the stress-compensated precursor structure may be patterned to form a cell core of a memory cell. The net beneficial stress state of the stress-compensated precursor structure lends to formation of one or more magnetic regions, in the cell core, exhibiting a vertical magnetic orientation without deteriorating a magnetic strength of the one or more magnetic regions. Also disclosed are memory cells, memory cell structures, semiconductor device structures, and spin torque transfer magnetic random access memory (STT-MRAM) systems.

摘要： A first conductive layer and an underlying charge storage layer are patterned to form a control gate in an NVM region. A first dielectric layer is formed over the control gate. A sacrificial layer is formed over the first dielectric layer and planarized. A patterned masking layer is formed over the sacrificial layer which includes a first portion which defines a select gate location laterally adjacent the control gate in the NVM region and a second portion which defines a logic gate in a logic region. Exposed portions of the sacrificial layer are removed such that a first portion remains at the select gate location. A second dielectric layer is formed over the first portion and planarized to expose the first portion. The first portion is removed to result in an opening at the select gate location. A gate dielectric layer and a select gate are formed in the opening.
