Abstract: Embodiments herein generally relate to polishing pads and methods of forming polishing pads. A polishing pad includes a plurality of polishing elements. Each polishing element comprises an individual surface that forms a portion of a polishing surface of the polishing pad and one or more sidewalls extending downwardly from the individual surface to define a plurality of channels disposed between the polishing elements. Each of the polishing elements has a plurality of pore-features formed therein. Each of the polishing elements is formed of a pre-polymer composition and a sacrificial material composition. In some cases, a sample of the cured pre-polymer composition has a glass transition temperature (Tg) of about 80° C. or greater. A storage modulus (E?) of the cured pre-polymer composition at a temperature of 80° C. (E?80) can be about 200 MPa or greater.

Abstract: The current disclosure describes techniques for individually selecting the number of channel strips for a device. The channel strips are selected by defining a three-dimensional active region that include a surface active area and a depth/height. Semiconductor strips in the active region are selected as channel strips. Semiconductor strips contained in the active region will be configured to be channel strips. Semiconductor strips not included in the active region are not selected as channel strips and are separated from source/drain structures by an auxiliary buffer layer.

Abstract: A method includes forming a memory stack over a substrate. A dielectric layer is deposited to cover the memory stack. An opening is formed in the dielectric layer. The opening does not expose the memory stack. A spin-orbit-torque (SOT) layer is formed in the opening. A free layer is formed over the dielectric layer to interconnect the memory stack and the SOT layer.
