Semiconductor diodes employing back-side semiconductor or metal
Abstract:
Integrated circuit (IC) strata including one or more transistor and one or more semiconductor diode. A transistor may include one or more non-planar semiconductor bodies in which there is a channel region while the diode also includes one or more non-planar semiconductor bodies in which there is a p-type region, an n-type region, or both. One IC stratum may be only hundreds of nanometers in thickness and include both front-side and back-side interconnect levels. The front-side interconnect level is disposed over a front side of one or more of the non-planar semiconductor bodies and is coupled to at least one terminal of the transistor. The back-side interconnect level is disposed over a back side of one or more of the non-planar semiconductor bodies and is coupled to at least one terminal of the semiconductor diode.
