A method of forming an integrated circuit device includes forming a non-planar field-effect transistor in a cell array portion of a semiconductor substrate and forming a planar field-effect transistor in a peripheral circuit portion of the semiconductor substrate. The non-planar field-effect transistor may be selected from the group of a FinFET and a recessed gate FET. Dopants may be implanted into a channel region of the non-planar field-effect transistor, and a cell protection layer may be formed on the non-planar field-effect transistor. Then, dopants may be selectively implanted into a channel region of the planar field-effect transistor using the cell protection layer as a mask to block implanting of the dopants into the channel region of the non-planar field-effect transistor.

Methods and apparatuses discussed herein provide for localized speed changes of an advancing substrate. Embodiments of a localized speed varying apparatus may include first and second substrate guides positioned upstream and downstream of a processing station, respectively. The substrate guides may utilize orbital motion of guide members to change the length of the substrate within the substrate guides upstream and downstream of the processing station. The changes in substrate length within the substrate guides result in localized speed changes of the substrate between the substrate guides. Coordination between the substrate guides allows for localized speed changes of the substrate passing through the processing station without affecting the speed of the substrate upstream of the first substrate guide and downstream of the second substrate guide.

A method and apparatus is disclosed for decelerating and temporarily accumulating a hot rolled product moving longitudinally along a receiving axis at a first velocity V1. The product is directed through a curved guide having an entry end aligned with the receiving axis to receive the product, and an exit end spaced radially from the receiving axis and oriented to deliver the product in an exit direction transverse to the receiving axis. The curved guide is rotated about the receiving axis in a direction opposite to the exit direction of the product and at a speed at which the guide exit end has a velocity V2, thereby decelerating the product being delivered from the guide exit end to a reduced velocity V3 equal to V1−V2. The curvature of the guide and the orientation of its exit end is such as to form the delivered product into a helix deposited and temporarily accumulated on a cylindrical drum. The drum is rotated in a direction opposite to the direction of rotation of the curved guide to thereby unwind the product from the drum.
