Abstract: A transistor forming method includes forming a dielectric spacer in a trench surrounding an active area island, forming line openings through the spacer, and forming a gate line extending through the line openings, over opposing sidewalls, and over a top of the fin. Source/drain regions are in the fin. Another method includes forming an interlayer dielectric over areas of the fin intended for source/drain regions, forming contact openings through the interlayer dielectric, and forming a source/drain plug in contact with an exposed portion of the spacer and in electrical connection with the top, one of opposing endwalls, and both of the opposing sidewalls of the fin.

Abstract: A first via opening is formed to a first conductor and a second via opening is formed to a second conductor. The first and second via openings are formed through insulative material. Then, the first conductor is masked from being exposed through the first via opening and to leave the second conductor outwardly exposed through the second via opening. An antifuse dielectric is formed within the second via opening over the exposed second conductor while the first conductor is masked. Then, the first conductor is unmasked to expose it through the first via opening. Then, conductive material is deposited to within the first via opening in conductive connection with the first conductor to form a conductive interconnect within the first via opening to the first conductor and to within the second via opening over the antifuse dielectric to form an antifuse comprising the second conductor, the antifuse dielectric within the second via opening and the conductive material deposited to within the second via opening.

Abstract: Planar access transistor devices and recessed access transistor devices used with semiconductor devices may include gate electrodes having materials with multiple work functions, materials that are electrically isolated from each other and supplied with two or more voltage supplies, or materials that create a diode junction within the gate electrode. Access device drivers are also provided which are capable of driving distinct or identical voltages to the gate electrodes.
