Patents by Inventor Heung-Gee Hong

Heung-Gee Hong has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9281202
    Abstract: A nonvolatile memory cell and a method for fabricating the same can secure stable operational reliability as well as reducing a cell size. The nonvolatile memory cell includes a drain region formed in a substrate, a source region formed in the substrate to be separated from the drain region, a floating gate formed over the substrate between the drain region and the source region, a halo region formed in the substrate in a direction that the drain region is formed, a dielectric layer formed on sidewalls of the floating gate, and a control gate formed over the dielectric layer to overlap with at least one sidewall of the floating gate.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 23, 2009
    Date of Patent: March 8, 2016
    Assignee: MagnaChip Semiconductor, Ltd.

  • Patent number: 6051461
    Abstract: A memory integrated circuit which is driven with a low power and reduced the cell area and a method for manufacturing the same. A plurality of active regions having an H-shape with four source regions and common drain region are formed on a semiconductor substrate. Four word lines each having a different source correspondingly pass through each of the four source regions of an active region, thereby forming four transistors driven, independently. These four transistors are designed so as to share one bit line, thereby reducing the driving voltage of the transistor to 1/4 Vcc. With a low power driving source, four transistors and a capacitor are formed on a small area to thereby reduce the cell size to 33% and even more.

  • Patent number: 5858590
    Abstract: A method for forming photoresist patterns by performing a photolithograpy process by the unit of a predetermined number of wafers, wherein the photoresist patterns are formed under a condition that an exposure time taken to fore each of the photoresist patterns is predetermined taking into consideration a variation in reflection factor, on the basis of the following equation:Z=X+{(r-a).times.(Y-X)/(.beta.-.alpha.)}where, "T" represents a reference thickness corresponding to a thickness of a photoresist film to be patterned to form a corresponding one of the photoresist patterns, exhibiting a minimum reference factor or a maximum reference factor, "T'" a thickness limit more than the reference thickness (T), ".alpha." a reference reflection factor at the reference thickness (T), ".beta." a reflection factor limit at the thickness limit (T'), "r" a varied reflection factor, "X" a reference exposure time at the reference reflection factor (.alpha.), "Y" an exposure time limit at the reflection factor limit (.
