    Abstract: A magneto resistive memory device is fabricated by etching a blanket metal stack comprised of a buffer layer, pinned magnetic layer, a tunnel barrier layer and a free magnetic layer. The problem of junction shorting from resputtered metal during the etching process is eliminated by formation of a protective spacer covering the side of the freelayer and tunnel barrier interface. The spacer is formed following the first etch through the free layer which stops on the barrier layer. After spacer formation a second etch is made to isolate the device. The patterning of the device tunnel junction is made using a disposable mandrel method that enables a self-aligned contact to be made following the completion of the device patterning process.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing ferroelectric memory cells in accordance with the stack principle. According to said method, an adhesive layer (2, 3) is formed between a lower capacitor electrode (6) of a memory capacitor and a conductive plug (1), which is formed below said electrode and makes an electric connection between said capacitor electrode (6) and a transistor electrode of a selection transistor that is formed in or on a semiconductor wafer. An oxygen diffusion barrier (4, 5) is formed above the adhesive layer and once the ferroelectric has been deposited, the adhesive layer and the barrier are subjected to rapid thermal processing (RTP) in an oxygen atmosphere. The method is characterised by the following steps: (A) Determination of the oxygen speed of the adhesive layer (2, 3) and the diffusion coefficient (DOxygen(T)) of oxygen in the material of the adhesive layer (2, 3), dependent on the temperature (T); (B) Determination of the diffusion coefficient (DSilicon(T)) of silicon in the material of the adhesive layer (2, 3), dependent on the temperature and (C) Calculation of an optimal temperature range for the RTP step from the two diffusion coefficients, (DOxygen(T)) and (DSilicon(T)) that have been determined for a predetermined layer thickness (dBARR) and layer width (bBARR) of the layer system consisting of the adhesive layer and the oxygen diffusion barrier, so that during the RTP step the siliconisation of the adhesive layer occurs more rapidly than its oxidation.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the production of ferroelectric capacitors structured according to the stack principle, which are used in integrated semiconductor memory chips, wherein the individual capacitor modules (10, 11) have an oxygen barrier (4a, 4b) between a lower capacitor electrode (5a, 5b) and an electrically conductive plug (1a, 1b). At a site where it is not covered by the corresponding oxygen barrier (4a, 4b), an unstructured adhesive layer (3) is oxidized by the oxygen arising during the tempering process of the ferroelectric (6a, 6b) and forms insulating segments at said site in such a way that the lower capacitor electrodes (5a, 5b) of the ferroelectric capacitors (10, 11) are electrically insulated from one another. This makes it possible to eliminate the structuring step of the adhesive layer (3). Furthermore, said layer (3) serves as a getter of oxygen and inhibits the diffusion of oxygen to the plug.

    Abstract: The integrated ferroelectric semiconductor memory is fabricated according to the stack cell principle. A ferroelectric capacitor module is formed on an intermediate oxide above a selection transistor located in or on a semiconductor wafer. The capacitor module is brought into conductive contact by its bottom capacitor electrode with an electrode of the selection transistor by means of an electrically conductive plug leading through the intermediate oxide. A layer system of a conductive oxygen diffusion barrier and a conductive adhesion layer is deposited directly below the bottom capacitor electrode, and the adhesion layer and the overlying oxygen diffusion barrier are deposited directly into the contact hole and form the plug at least in the region lying directly below the bottom capacitor electrode.
