Buried junction mos memory capacitor target for electron beam addressable memory and method of using same

Abstract From the Canadian patent

A buried junction MOS memory capacitor target device for electron beam addressable READ/WRITE memories is described along with a method of using the same. The memory capacitor target structure comprises a planar semiconductor substrate of various degrees of complexity having a highly conducting coating providing a low resistance ohmic contact to the substrate backside and an N-type planar semiconductor overlayer forming with the substrate topside a bipolar detector junction. An insulating layer overlies the N-type layer and a conducting coating overlies the insulating layer. The device is employed with an electron beam of sufficient energy to penetrate the latter two layers and to produce …
