    Abstract: A gate-all-around nanowire device and a method for forming the gate-all-around nanowire device. A first fin and a dielectric layer on the first fin are formed on a substrate. The first fin includes the at least one first epitaxial layer and the at least one second epitaxial layer that are alternately stacked. The dielectric layer exposes a channel region of the first fin. A doping concentration at a lateral surface of the channel region and a doping concentration at a central region of the channel region are different from each other in the at least one second epitaxial layer. After the at least one first epitaxial layer is removed from the channel region, the at least one second epitaxial layer in the channel region serves as at least one nanowire. A gate surrounding the at least one nanowire is formed.

    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising the steps of: forming a gate dielectric layer and a first amorphous channel layer on a substrate; thinning the first amorphous channel layer; etching the first amorphous channel layer and the gate dielectric layer until the substrate is exposed; forming a second amorphous channel layer on the first amorphous channel layer and the substrate; annealing such that the first amorphous channel layer and the second amorphous channel layer are converted into a polycrystalline channel layer; and thinning the polycrystalline channel layer. According to the method of manufacturing semiconductor device of the present invention, the grain size of the polycrystalline thin film is increased by depositing a thick amorphous film and then annealing and thinning it. An additional protective layer is used to avoid etching damage on the sidewalls, effectively reducing the interface state and damage defects of the polycrystalline channel layer, thereby enhancing the reliability of the device.

    Abstract: A method for operating a semiconductor memory includes: randomizing a data of an operation address to obtain a random code; performing a combinational logic operation between the random code and the original data to obtain a randomized data, or performing a combinational logic operation between the randomized data and the random code to obtain a de-randomized data; saving the randomized data, or outputting the de-randomized data. According to the method for operating a semiconductor memory of the present invention, since a combinational logic or a non-iterative sequential logic is used to form a random sequence generation unit, the encoding/decoding process does not need to wait for a specific cycle, thus reducing the operation time and improving the chip performance.
