This invention provides a semiconductor device structure formed on a conventional semiconductor-on-insulator (SeOI) substrate and including an array of patterns, each pattern being formed by at least one field-effect transistor, each FET transistor having, in the thin film, a source region, a drain region, a channel region, and a front control gate region formed above the channel region. The provided device further includes at least one FET transistor having a pattern including a back control gate region formed in the base substrate beneath the channel region, the back gate region being capable of being biased in order to shift the threshold voltage of the transistor to simulate a modification in the channel width of the transistor or to force the transistor to remain off or on whatever the voltage applied on its front control gate. This invention also provides methods of operating such semiconductor device structures.
