III-N e-mode high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) including a dopant diffusion spacer between an impurity-doped III-N material layer and a III-N polarization layer of the HEMT material stack. The spacer may be a substantially undoped III-N material, such as GaN. With the diffusion spacer, P-type impurities within the pGaN are setback from the polarization layer sufficiently to avoid significant levels of P-type impurities from entering the III-N material interface where the 2DEG resides. With the diffusion spacer, clustering of impurities near the 2DEG may be avoided and a III-N e-mode HEMT may achieve higher drive currents.

PGaN enhancement mode HEMTs with dopant diffusion spacer

Techniques, structures, and materials related to extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography are discussed. Multiple patterning inclusive of first patterning a grating of parallel lines and second patterning utilizing EUV lithography to form plugs in the grating, and optional trimming of the plugs may be employed. EUV resists, surface treatments, resist additives, and optional processing inclusive of plug healing, angled etch processing, electric field enhanced post exposure bake are described, which provide improved processing reliability, feature definition, and critical dimensions.

EUV patterning methods, structures, and materials

A memory device includes a first electrode, a conductive layer including iridium above the first electrode and a magnetic junction directly on the conductive layer. The magnetic junction further includes a pinning structure above the conductive layer, a fixed magnet above the pinning structure, a tunnel barrier on the fixed magnet, a free magnet on the tunnel barrier layer and a second electrode above the free magnet. The conductive layer including iridium and the pinning structure including iridium provide switching efficiency.

Magnetic memory devices and methods of fabrication

A memory device includes a first electrode, a conductive layer including iridium above the first electrode, a magnetic junction on the conductive layer and a second electrode above the magnetic junction. The magnetic junction includes a magnetic structure including a first magnetic layer including cobalt, a non-magnetic layer including platinum or tungsten on the first magnetic layer and a second magnetic layer including cobalt on the non-magnetic layer. The magnetic junction further includes an anti-ferromagnetic layer on the magnet structure, a fixed magnet above the anti-ferromagnetic layer, a free magnet above the fixed magnet and a tunnel barrier between the fixed magnet and the free magnet.
