摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for the manufacture of a wafer, comprising the steps of providing a doped layer (6) on a semiconductor substrate (5); providing a first intrinsic semiconductor layer (7) on the doped layer; providing a buried oxide layer (9) on the first semiconductor layer; and providing a second semiconductor layer (3) on the buried oxide layer. In a first region (A) of the wafer, DRAM devices are formed with capacitor trenches (10) extruding into the doped layer (6). In a second region (B) of the wafer, logic TFTs (13) are formed. The first semiconductor layer (7) is doped at locations below the TFTs. These doped regions are provided with contacts (14) for back-biasing the TFTs.
摘要:
The present invention provides nanostructured MOS capacitor that comprises a nanowire (2) at least partly enclosed by a dielectric layer (5) and a gate electrode (4 ) that encloses at least a portion of the dielectric layer (5). Preferably the nanowire (2) protrudes from a substrate ( 12). The gate electrode (4) defines a gated portion (7) of the nanowire (2), which is allowed to be fully depleted when a first predetermined voltage is applied to the gate electrode (4). A method for providing a variable capacitance in an electronic circuit by using such an nanostructured MOS capacitor is also provided. Thanks to the invention it is possible Io provide a MOS capacitor having an increased capacitance modulation range. It is a further advantage of the invention to provide a MOS capacitor which has relatively low depletion capacitance compared to prior art MOS capacitances.
摘要:
A method for fabricating a high-voltage transistor with an extended drain region comprises forming an epitaxial layer (101) on a substrate (100), the epitaxial layer and the substrate being of a first conductivity type; then etching the epitaxial layer to form a pair of spaced-apart trenches that define first and second sidewall portions of the epitaxial layer, wherein the mesa has a lateral width that is less than 20% of a depth of the trenches. A dielectric layer (102) is formed that partially fills each of the trenches, covering the first and second sidewall portions. The remaining portions of the trenches are then filled with a conductive material to form first and second field plate members (103) that are insulated from the substrate and the epitaxial layer.
