    摘要: An electronic semiconductor device has a sublithographic contact area between a first conductive region and a second conductive region. The first conductive region is cup-shaped and has vertical walls which extend, in top plan view, along a closed line of elongated shape. One of the walls of the first conductive region forms a first thin portion and has a first dimension in a first direction. The second conductive region has a second thin portion having a second sublithographic dimension in a second direction transverse to the first dimension. The first and the second conductive regions are in direct electrical contact at their thin portions and form the sublithographic contact area. The elongated shape is chosen between rectangular and oval elongated in the first direction. Thereby, the dimensions of the contact area remain approximately constant even in presence of a small misalignment between the masks defining the conductive regions.

    摘要: A contact structure, including a first conducting region having a first thin portion with a first sublithographic dimension in a first direction; a second conducting region having a second thin portion with a second sublithographic dimension in a second direction transverse to said first direction; the first and second thin portions being in direct electrical contact and defining a contact area having a sublithographic extension. The thin portions are obtained using deposition instead of lithography: the first thin portion is deposed on a wall of an opening in a first dielectric layer; the second thin portion is obtained by deposing a sacrificial region on vertical wall of a first delimitation layer, deposing a second delimitation layer on the free side of the sacrificial region, removing the sacrificial region to form a sublithographic opening that is used to etch a mold opening in a mold layer and filling the mold opening.

    摘要: In a process for the fabrication of integrated resistive elements with protection from silicidation, at least one active area (15) is delimited in a semiconductor wafer (10). At least one resistive region (21) having a pre-determined resistivity is then formed in the active area (15). Prior to forming the resistive region (21), however, a delimitation structure (20) for delimiting the resistive region (21) is obtained on top of the active area (15). Subsequently, protective elements (25) are obtained which extend within the delimitation structure (20) and coat the resistive region (21).
