    Abstract: The present invention relates to a FinFET with separate gates and to a method for fabricating the same. A dielectric gate-separation layer between first and second gate electrodes has an extension in a direction pointing from a first to a second gate layer that is smaller than a lateral extension of the fin between its opposite lateral faces. This structure corresponds with a processing method that starts from a covered basic FinFET structure with a continuous first gate layer, and proceeds to remove parts of the first gate layer and of a first gate-isolation layer through a contact opening to the gate layer. Subsequently, a replacement gate-isolation layer that at the same time forms the gate separation layer fabricated, followed by filling the tunnel with a replacement gate layer and a metal filling.

    Abstract: A driver circuit (10) for a light emitting diode comprises a first driver circuit (32, 32′, 32′) for generating a first current output for driving the light emitting diode, wherein the first driver circuit has a control switch for interrupting the supply of the first current output. A second driver circuit (50) is for generating a second current output for driving the light emitting diode, and the second driver circuit also has a control switch for interrupting the supply of the second current output. The overall output of the driver circuit comprises a pulse width modulated output current which alternates between a high current (Ihigh) generated by the first driver circuit and a low current (Ilow) generated by the second driver circuit. By providing separate driver circuits for two different current requirements, the circuits can be optimised for each function. For example the high current value can comprise an LED operation current, and the low current value can comprise a non-zero measurement current.

    Abstract: A method of manufacturing an I-MOS device includes forming a semiconductor layer (2) on a buried insulating layer (4). A gate structure (23) including a gate stack (14) is formed on the semiconductor layer, and used to (5) self align the formation of a source region (28) by implantation. Then, an etch step is used to selectively etch the gate structure (23) and this is followed by forming a drain region (36) by implantation. The method can precisely control the i-region length (38) between source region (28) and gate stack (14).

    Abstract: A silicon on insulator device has a silicon layer (10) over a buried insulating layer (12). A nickel layer is deposited over a gate (16), on sidewall spacers (22) on the sides of the gate (16), and in a cavity on both sides of the gate (16) in the silicon layer (10). A doped amorphous silicon layer fills the cavity. Annealing then takes place which forms polysilicon (40) over the sidewall spacers (22) and gate (16), but where the nickel is adjacent to single crystal silicon (10) a layer of NiSi (44) migrates to the surface leaving doped single crystal silicon (42) behind, forming in one step a source, drain, and source and drain contacts.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a semiconductor device (10) with a substrate and a semiconductor body (1) comprising a first FET (3) with a source (2) and a drain (3) that are provided with connection regions (2B, 3B) of a metal silicide, and that are connected to source and drain extensions (2A, 3A) bordering a channel region (4) below a gate (6) and having a smaller thickness and a lower doping concentration than the source (2) and the drain (3). The source (2) and drain (3) and the source and drain extensions (2A, 3A) are connected to each other by means of an intermediate region (2C, 3C) of the first conductivity type having a thickness and a doping concentration ranging between the thickness and doping concentration of the source (2) and drain (3) and the extensions (2A, 3A) thereof. In this way, the occurrence of leakage currents and the risk of a short circuit between the connection regions (2B, 3B) and the substrate is limited, while the advantages of the use of source and drain extensions (2A, 3A) are preserved. Preferably, the intermediate regions (2C, 3C) are positioned below spacers (7) next to the gate (6), and they are preferably formed using a, preferably tilted, ion implantation.
