Latest Patents
Massimo Ati holds a patent for a method of forming low-resistivity connections in non-volatile memories. This method applies to non-volatile semiconductor memories with cells arranged in rows and columns. Each cell has a first terminal, a second terminal, and a third terminal connected to a row line, a column line, and a common node, respectively. To achieve low resistivity connections and save semiconductor area, the method involves forming an oxide layer that covers the connection strips of the first and third terminals. Channels are then created along the connection strips until their surfaces are exposed, followed by filling these channels with a material that has lower resistivity than the connection strips.
