Abstract: An optical filter includes a carrier layer made of a first material. A periodic grating of posts is disposed on the carrier layer in a periodic pattern configured by characteristic dimensions. The posts are made of a second material. A layer made of a third material encompasses the periodic grating of posts and covers the carrier layer. The third material has a refractive index that is different from a refractive index of the second material. Characteristic dimensions of the periodic grating of posts are smaller than an interfering wavelength and are configured to selectively reflect light at the interfering wavelength on the periodic grating of posts.

Abstract: A light sensor includes a semiconductor substrate supporting a number of pixels. Each pixel includes a photoconversion zone extending in the substrate between a front face and a back face of the substrate. An optical diffraction grating is arranged over the back face of the substrate at a position facing the photoconversion zone of the pixel. For at least two different pixels of the light sensor, the optical diffraction gratings have different pitches. Additionally, the optical grating of each pixel is surrounded by an opaque wall configured to absorb at operating wavelengths of the sensor.

Abstract: A light sensor includes a first pixel and a second pixel. Each pixel has a photoconversion area. A band-stop Fano resonance filter is arranged over the first pixel. The second pixel includes no Fano resonance filter. Signals output from the first and second pixels are processed to determine information representative of the quantity of light received by the light sensor during an illumination phase in a rejection band of the band-stop Fano resonance filter.

Abstract: A transistor includes a source region, a drain region and a body region arranged in a semiconductor layer. A gate region tops the body region. The body region includes a first doped layer and a second layer between the first doped layer and the gate region. The second layer is an epitaxial layer that is less heavily doped than the first doped layer.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an electronic circuit comprising a semiconductor substrate, radiofrequency switches corresponding to MOS transistors comprising doped semiconductor regions in the substrate, at least two metallization levels covering the substrate, each metallization level comprising a stack of insulating layers, conductive pillars topped by metallic tracks, at least two connection elements each connecting one of the doped semiconductor regions and formed by conductive pillars and conductive tracks of each metallization level. The electronic circuit further comprises, between the two connection elements, a trench crossing completely the stack of insulating layers of one metallization level and further crossing partially the stack of insulating layers of the metallization level the closest to the substrate, and a heat dissipation device adapted for dissipating heat out of the trench.

Abstract: A photosensitive semiconductor region is configured to be illuminated through a rear face. A periodic array of pads formed of a first material is provided at the front face. The periodic array has an outline with a periodic pattern parameterized by characteristic dimensions. The outline forms an interface between the first material and a second material, where the first and second materials have different optical indices. The characteristic dimensions of the periodic pattern are less than a wavelength of interest and are configured to produce at the interface a reflection of light at the wavelength of interest towards the photosensitive semiconductor region.

Abstract: A MOSFET transistor includes, on a semiconductor layer, a stack of a gate insulator and of a gate region on the gate insulator. The gate region has a first gate portion and a second gate portion between the first gate portion and the gate insulator. The first gate portion has a first length in a first lateral direction of the transistor. The second gate portion has a second length in the first lateral direction that is shorter than the first length.
