A method of forming an integrated circuit structure includes forming a first insulation region and a second insulation region in a semiconductor substrate and facing each other; and forming an epitaxial semiconductor region having a reversed T-shape. The epitaxial semiconductor region includes a horizontal plate including a bottom portion between and adjoining the first insulation region and the second insulation region, and a fin over and adjoining the horizontal plate. The bottom of the horizontal plate contacts the semiconductor substrate. The method further includes forming a gate dielectric on a top surface and at least top portions of sidewalls of the fin; and forming a gate electrode over the gate dielectric.

In one example, an MRAM memory array includes a plurality of word lines, a plurality of bit lines crossing the word lines, and a plurality of first and second diodes, and magnetic tunnel junction memories. Each first diode includes a cathode, and an anode coupled to each bit line. Each second diode includes an anode, and a cathode coupled to each word line. The magnetic tunnel junction memories include a pinned layer, a free layer, and a non-magnetic layer. The non-magnetic layer is located between the pinned layer and the free layer. Each diode is positioned at crossing points of the bit lines and the word lines and connected between the first diode at the corresponding crossing bit line and the second diode at the corresponding crossing word line.

A magnetic random access memory (MRAM) cell that includes an MRAM stack and a conductive line for carrying write current associated with the MRAM cell. The conductive line is oriented in a direction that is angularly offset from an easy axis of the MRAM stack by an acute angle, such as about 45 degrees.

An MRAM cell including an MRAM cell stack located over a substrate and first and second write lines spanning at least one side of the MRAM cell stack and defining a projected region of intersection of the MRAM cell stack and the first and second write lines. The MRAM cell stack includes a pinned layer, a tunneling barrier layer, and a free layer, the tunneling barrier layer interposing the pinned layer and the free layer. The first write line extends in a first direction within the projected region of intersection. The second write line extends in a second direction within the projected region of intersection. The first and second directions are angularly offset by an angle ranging between 45 and 90 degrees, exclusively. At least one write line may be perpendicular to the easy axis of free layer, while the other line may be rotated off the easy axis of the free layer by an angle which is larger than zero, such as to compensate for a shifting astroid curve.

A method and system is disclosed for directing charged particles on predetermined areas on a target semiconductor substrate. After aligning a wafer mask with a semiconductor wafer, with the wafer mask having one or more mask patterns thereon, the charged particles are directed to pass through the mask patterns to land on one or more selected areas on the semiconductor wafer.

A method and device including a substrate having a fin. A metal gate structure is formed on the fin. The metal gate structure includes a stress metal layer formed on the fin such that the stress metal layer extends to a first height from an STI feature, the first height being greater than the fin height. A conduction metal layer is formed on the stress metal layer.
