20090027942 | SEMICONDUCTOR MEMORY UNIT AND ARRAY - A memory unit comprising a gate electrode, a gate dielectric under said gate electrode, an active area and a metal-semiconductor compound layer is provided. The active area comprises a first source/drain region, a second source/drain region, a normal field channel region formed under said gate electrode, a fringing field channel region formed between said first source/drain region and said normal field channel region, a pocket implantation region formed under the fringing or normal field channel regions and an extension doping region formed between said second source/drain region and said normal field channel region. The metal-semiconductor compound layer is formed over said gate electrode, first source/drain region and second source/drain region. | 01-29-2009 |
