    Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms to provide capacitance with a memory cell of an integrated circuit. In an embodiment, a transistor of the memory cell includes structures variously formed in or on a first side of a semiconductor substrate. After processing to form the transistor structures, thinning is performed to expose a second side of the semiconductor substrate, the second side opposite the first side. Processing in or on the exposed second side of the semiconductor substrate is subsequently performed to form in the semiconductor substrate a capacitor that extends to couple to one of the transistor structures. In another embodiment, the capacitor is coupled to accumulate charge based on activation of a channel of the transistor. The capacitor is further coupled to send charge from the memory cell via the second side.

    Abstract: Lithographic apparatuses suitable for, and methodologies involving, complementary e-beam lithography (CEBL) are described. In an example, a method of real-time alignment of a wafer situated on a stage of an e-beam tool involves collecting backscattered electrons from an underlying patterned feature of the wafer while an e-beam column of the e-beam tool writes during scanning of the stage. The collecting is performed by an electron detector placed at the e-beam column bottom. The method also involves performing linear corrections of an alignment of the stage relative to the e-beam column based on the collecting.
