Abstract:
Compositions and methods of using said composition for removing polymeric materials from surfaces, preferably cleaning contaminant buildup from a lithography apparatus without total disassembly of said apparatus.
Abstract:
Compositions and methods for selectively removing unreacted metal material (e.g., unreacted nickel) relative to metal germanide (e.g., NiGe), metal-III-V materials, and germanium from microelectronic devices having same thereon. The compositions are substantially compatible with other materials present on the microelectronic device such as low-k dielectrics and silicon nitride.
Abstract:
Compositions and methods of using the said composition for removing polymeric materials from surfaces, preferably cleaning contaminant buildup from a lithography apparatus without total disassembly of the said apparatus. The said compositions comprise at least one organic solvent and one non-ionic surfactant. Moreover, the pH of the said composition is about 5 to 9.
Abstract:
Methods of reducing the capillary forces experienced by fragile high aspect ratio structures during drying to substantially prevent damage to said high aspect ratio structures during drying. They include modifying the surface of the high aspect ratio structures such that the forces are sufficiently minimized and as such less than 10% of the high aspect ratio features will have bent or collapsed during drying of the structure having said features thereon.

Abstract:
A modified PbZrTiO3 perovskite crystal material thin film, wherein the PbZrTiO3 perovskite crystal material includes crystal lattice A-sites and B-sites at least one of which is modified by the presence of a substituent selected from the group consisting of (i) A-site substituents consisting of Sr, Ca, Ba and Mg, and (ii) B-site substituents selected from the group consisting of Nb and Ta. The perovskite crystal thin film material may be formed by liquid delivery MOCVD from metalorganic precursors of the metal components of the thin film, to form PZT and PSZT, and other piezoelectric and ferroelectric thin film materials. The thin films of the invention have utility in non-volatile ferroelectric memory devices (NV-FeRAMs), and in microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) as sensor and/or actuator elements, e.g., high speed digital system actuators requiring low input power levels.
