Abstract: A semiconductor memory structure based on gate oxide break down is constructed in a deep N-well. Thus, the electrical field over the programmable element during the transient procedure of gate oxide break down can be controlled to achieve the best memory programming results. The conductivity of the programmed memory cell is increased greatly and conductivity variation between the memory cells is reduced. This is achieved by adding a body bias during the programming process. The body here refers to a P-well formed within the deep N-Well. Furthermore, the read voltage offset is reduced greatly with this new memory configuration. These improved programming results will allow faster read speed and lower read voltage. This new structure also reduces current leakage from a memory array during programming.

Abstract: A multi-wavelength laser array is achieved by using a wavelength selectable optical device as a feedback mirror for a plurality of lasers. The wavelength of reflected light from the optical device depends upon the parameters in the local reflection positions of the optical device along the direction as determined by guided-mode resonance. Thus, the multi-wavelength laser array is able to emit a plurality of laser beams with desired wavelengths, each within the gain curve of its active element.

In one embodiment, an optical fiber bundle doped with erbium (Er) or erbium/ytterbium (Er/Yb) is perpendicularly attached to an optical device, which serves as a guided-mode resonance feedback mirror, to form a fiber laser matrix. The optical device contains a substrate layer, a waveguide layer, and a grating layer, with non-uniform device parameters. The wavelength of the resonant light and its corresponding laser light of an individual optical fiber depends upon the parameters in the location on the optical device where the fiber is attached. In another embodiment, a plurality of active waveguides in a body are attached to an optical device to form a diode-pumped crystal laser matrix with multi-group output wavelengths. The invented laser system is capable of generating laser sources of large channel capacity for the optical network especially for the dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) system.

Abstract: A method of testing a memory cell is disclosed. The memory cell has a data storage element constructed around an ultra-thin dielectric, such as a gate oxide, which is used to store information by stressing the ultra-thin dielectric into breakdown (soft or hard breakdown) to set the leakage current level of the memory cell. In order to ensure that the gate oxide underlying the data storage elements are of sufficient quality for programming, the memory cells of a memory array may be tested by applying a voltage across the gate oxide of the data storage element and measuring the current flow. Resultant current flow outside of a predetermined range indicates a defective memory cell.

Abstract: A multi-wavelength laser array (16) is achieved by using a wavelength selectable optical device as a feedback mirror for a plurality of lasers. The optical device is constructed by combining a substrate layer, a waveguide layer (13), and a grating layer (14) with non-uniform parameters such as the thickness of the waveguide layer (13), the grating period, and the refractive index of the waveguide layer in one direction. The wavelength of reflected light from the optical device depends upon the parameters in local reflection positions along the direction as determined by guided-mode resonance. Thus, the multi-wavelength laser array (16) is able to emit a plurality of laser beams with desired wavelengths, each within the gain curve of its active element. The invention provides a solution to the uneven wavelength-drifting problem of existing laser sources used in the optical network especially in the dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) system.
