Abstract: A memory device comprising a vertical transistor includes a digit line that is directly coupled to the source regions of each memory cell. Because an electrical plug is not used to form a contact between the digit line and the source regions, a number of fabrication steps may be reduced and the possibility for manufacturing defects may also be reduced. In some embodiments, a memory device may include a vertical transistor having gate regions that are recessed from an upper portion of a silicon substrate. With the gate regions recessed from the silicon substrate, the gate regions are spaced further from the source/drain regions and, accordingly, cross capacitance between the gate regions and the source/drain regions may be reduced.

Abstract: Systems and methods for searching entertainment content on a computer jukebox are provided in which, in exemplary embodiments, a user may select which music library to search if more than one music libraries are available for searching. Also provided is a system and method of searching entertainment content on a computer jukebox in which, in one embodiment, search results from a first music library are provided based on a input search criteria, and search results are provided from a second music library based on the same search criteria in response to only a single action performed by a user.

Abstract: A capacitor for a memory device is formed with a conductive oxide for a bottom electrode. The conductive oxide (RuOx) is deposited under low temperatures as an amorphous film. As a result, the film is conformally deposited over a three dimensional, folding structure. Furthermore, a subsequent polishing step is easily performed on the amorphous film, increasing wafer throughput. After deposition and polishing, the film is crystallized in a non-oxidizing ambient.
