Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a circuit pattern with high aspect ratio is disclosed. A plurality of parallel lines and supporting lines intersecting the parallel lines are formed. Supporting isolation structures are then formed in the space between the parallel lines and the supporting line for supporting the parallel lines in a later etching process. The parallel lines and the supporting line are then disconnected after the etching process.

Abstract:
A memory array includes a plurality of word lines extending along a first direction; a plurality of memory cells coupled to a first sub-bit line (SBL) extending along a second direction that is substantially orthogonal to the first direction; a first selector region disposed substantially in the middle of the first SBL thereby dividing the plurality of memory cells into two sub-groups, wherein the first selector region comprises at least one selector transistor that is coupled to the first SBL; and a main bit line (MBL) extending along the second direction and coupled to the selector transistor.
Abstract:
A semiconductor structure includes a semiconductor substrate having thereon a plurality of deep trenches and a plurality of pillar structures between the deep trenches, wherein each of the plurality of pillar structures comprises an upper portion and a lower portion. A doping region is formed in the lower portion. A diffusion barrier layer is disposed on a sidewall of the lower portion.
Abstract:
A device capable of generating electricity includes a rotating unit and a piezoelectric component. The rotating unit is rotatable about a rotation axis and includes a plurality of strikers that are disposed at angularly spaced apart positions relative to the rotation axis and that define a plurality of voids, each of which is located between an adjacent pair of the strikers. The piezoelectric component has a portion that extends into one of the voids. Rotation of the rotating unit results in the strikers striking the portion of the piezoelectric component intermittently, and causes the piezoelectric component to deform, exhibit a direct piezoelectric effect and generate electricity.
Abstract:
A method of fabricating a semiconductor device having a recess channel structure is provided. A first recess is formed in a substrate. A liner and a filling layer are formed in the first recess. A portion of the substrate adjacent to the first recess and a portion of the liner and the filling layer are removed to form trenches. An insulation layer fills the trenches to form isolation structures. The filling layer is removed, using the liner as an etching stop layer, to expose the insulation layer. A portion of the exposed insulation layer is removed to form a second recess having divots adjacent to the sidewalls of the substrate. The liner is removed. A dielectric layer and a gate are formed over the substrate covering the second recess. Source and drain regions are formed in the substrate adjacent to the second recess.

Abstract:
A method for rounding the top corner of a trench. A masking layer is formed on a substrate, and the masking layer is then patterned to form at least one opening therein to expose the substrate and form a recess region in the substrate. The recess region is oxidized to form a first oxide layer to round the top corner of the recess region. The first oxide layer and the substrate under the opening are successively etched to form a trench in the substrate. A second oxide layer is conformably formed on the surface of the trench. A method for forming a shallow trench isolation structure is also disclosed.

Provided is a method for fabricating a semiconductor device, which includes the following steps. A substrate having a plurality of pillars is provided, wherein a plurality of trenches are formed around each pillar, and a doped region is disposed at a bottom of each pillar. An insulation layer is formed below each doped region.
