  • Patent number: 9960181
    Abstract: Contact areas for three-dimensional memory devices including multiple vertically stacked tier structures can be reduced by overlapping stepped terraces of the tier structures. Sacrificial via structures laterally surrounded by a respective insulating spacer can be formed through an overlying tier structure in the stepped terrace region thereof. After formation of memory stack structures, the sacrificial via structures can be removed to provide first upper via cavities. An isotropic etch can be performed to extend the first upper via cavities to top surfaces of underlying first electrically conductive layers in an underlying tier structure while forming second upper via cavities extending to second electrically conductive layers in the overlying tier structure.

  • Publication number: 20170256777
    Abstract: A cathode for lithium ion secondary battery of the present invention includes a cathode including a current collector and active material supported on the current collector. The current collector is made of porous metal. The cathode has holes in its surface, and active material density is 50 to 80% of true density of the active material. Because the cathode is thick and supported with the active material densely and the holes are formed in its surface, transfer of an electron and insertion/release of lithium ion take place in the cathode surface and deep in the cathode in the lithium ion secondary battery. Therefore, the lithium ion released from the active material can migrate in the electrolyte solution in the holes, so that the active material present deep in the cathode is effectively utilized, and thus, the lithium ion secondary battery has high capacity and can promptly charge/discharge.
