Abstract: Disclosed are methods and resulting structures which provide an opening for epitaxial growth, the opening having an associated projection for reducing the size of the contact area on a substrate at which growth begins. During growth, the epitaxial material grows vertically from the contact area and laterally over the projection. The projection provides a stress relaxation region for the lateral growth to reduce dislocation and stacking faults at the side edges of the grown epitaxial material.

Abstract: Methods for fabricating memory devices having charged species, and methods for adjusting flatband voltages in such memory devices. In one such method, a dielectric material is formed adjacent to a semiconductor. A charged species is introduced into the dielectric material, wherein the charged species has an energy barrier in a range of greater than about 0.5 eV to about 3.0 eV. A control gate is formed adjacent to the dielectric material. A flatband voltage of the memory device can be adjusted by moving the charged species to different levels within the dielectric material, thus programming different states into the device.
