摘要:
Systems and methods are presented for controlling formation of a silicide region. A selective etch layer is utilized to control formation of a trench opening, and further can be utilized to open up a trench to facilitate correct exposure of an active Si region to subsequently form a silicide. Issues regarding over-dimension, under-dimension, and misalignment of a trench are addressed. The selective etch material is chosen to facilitate control of the trench formation and also to enable removal of the selective etch layer without affecting any adjacent structures/material. The selective etch layer can be an oxide, for example aluminum oxide, Al2O3. The selective etch layer can be utilized to prevent formation of silicide in a channel beneath a raised source/drain.

摘要:
A semiconductor device and methods of fabricating semiconductor devices are provided. Provided is an epitaxial layer equipped with a lateral epitaxial layer that can block a Shallow Trench Isolation (STI) edge from a downstream etching process step, which can result in a reduced STI divot. A method involves forming a semiconductor substrate on a source region and a drain region and forming a semiconductor region on the semiconductor substrate. The method also comprises creating at least a first isolation feature adjacent to the semiconductor region and depositing an epitaxial layer on the semiconductor region and laterally between the semiconductor region and the at least the first isolation feature.

An optical head which has a prism with an incident section, an internal reflective surface and an emergent surface, and an optical head device which employs the optical head. Light emitted from a light source is incident to the prism through the incident section, reflects at least once on the internal reflective surface and is converged in the vicinity of the emergent surface. Then, the light effuses through the emergent surface as near field light.

An MIS transistor includes a gate electrode located to intersect a device region of a semiconductor substrate isolated by a device isolation region, and source and drain regions formed in the semiconductor substrate at both sides of the gate electrode region and elevated source and drain located above the source and drain regions. A gate length of the gate electrode at a boundary between the device isolation region and the device region is longer than the gate length at a central portion of the device region.

An image forming apparatus includes a first developing device, accommodating a first kind of toner without an offset preventing agent, a second developing device accommodating a second kind of toner containing an offset preventing agent, and a roller fixing device having a supply portion for supplying an offset preventing agent. The image forming apparatus changes the amount of the offset preventing agent to be supplied to the fixing roller between the case of fixing a copy image formed with the first kind of toner and the case of fixing a copy image formed with the second kind of toner.
摘要:
A magnetoresistor is monolithically integrated with an active circuit by growing a thin film magnetoresistor on a semiconductor substrate after the substrate has been doped and annealed for the active devices. The magnetoresistor is grown through a window in a mask, with the mask and magnetoresistor materials selected such that the magnetoresistor is substantially non-adherent to the mask. InSb is preferred for the magnetoresistor, Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 for the mask and GaAs for the substrate. The non-adherence allows the mask to be substantially thinner than the magnetoresistor without impairing the removal of the mask after the magnetoresistor has been established.

A dynamic random access memory comprises a pair of write-in data transferring lines (IL, IL), a pair of read-out data transferring lines (OL, OL) and a current-mirror type sense amplifier comprising (30) CMOS transistors. The current-mirror type amplifier (30) is connected between a plurality of bit line pairs (BL, BL) and the pair of read-out data transferring lines (OL, OL). At the time of data reading, the pair of write-in data transferring lines (IL, IL) is connected to the corresponding bit line pair (BL, BL) in response to a write-in column decoded signal (YW) obtained by ANDing a column decoded signal (CA) with a write-in instruction signal (W).
