Abstract:
A substrate of the silicon-on-insulator type is formed from an initial substrate of the silicon-on-insulator type having a semiconductor film on top of a buried insulating layer itself situated on top of a carrier substrate. A localized modification of a thickness of the semiconductor film is made so as to form a semiconductor film having different thicknesses in different regions.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a wafer on which are formed resonators, each resonator including, above a semiconductor substrate, a stack of layers including, in the following order from the substrate surface: a Bragg mirror; a compensation layer made of a material having a temperature coefficient of the acoustic velocity of a sign opposite to that of all the other stack layers; and a piezoelectric resonator, the method including the successive steps of: a) depositing the compensation layer; and b) decreasing thickness inequalities of the compensation layer due to the deposition method, so that this layer has a same thickness to within better than 2%, and preferably to within better than 1%, at the level of each resonator.
Abstract:
A DMOS on SOI transistor including an elongated gate extending across the entire width of an active area; a drain region of a first conductivity type extending across the entire width of the active area; a source region of the first conductivity type extending parallel to the gate and stopping before the limit of the active area at least on one side of the transistor width, an interval existing between the limit of the source region and the limit of the active area; a bulk region of a second conductivity type extending under the gate and in said interval; a more heavily-doped region of the second conductivity type extending on a portion of said interval on the side of the limit of the active area; and an elongated source metallization extending across the entire width of the active area.
