A semiconductor device, such as a metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor, includes a semiconductor substrate, a drift layer formed on the substrate, a first and a second source region, and a JFET region defined between the first and the second source regions. The JFET region may have a short width and/or a higher concentration of impurities than the drift layer. The semiconductor device may also include a current spreading layer formed on the drift layer. The current spreading layer may also have a higher concentration of impurities than the drift layer.

Milled silica or alumina fibres or whiskers are formed into a reinforcement for a squeeze cast article such as a piston for an internal combustion engine. The problem of handling the milled fibres or whiskers while they are formed into the reinforcement is mitigated or overcome by the use of coagulated latex to bind the milled fibres or whiskers in a colloidal silica solution until they are fired to form the reinforcement. In addition, a starch is used to prevent the milled fibres or whiskers settling when in the colloidal silica solution.

The word conductors of a semiconductor integrated ROM are foreshortened where permitted by the organization of data in the memory. The space made available by the eliminated portions of the word conductors is used for electrical connection to the bit conductors from the sides of the array rather than at the ends. A space reduction of about thirty percent is achieved.

Disclosed herein is a method of improving the adhesion of a hydrophobic self-assembled monolayer (SAM) coating to a surface of a MEMS structure, for the purpose of preventing stiction. The method comprises treating surfaces of the MEMS structure with a plasma generated from a source gas comprising oxygen and, optionally, hydrogen. The treatment oxidizes the surfaces, which are then reacted with hydrogen to form bonded OH groups on the surfaces. The hydrogen source may be present as part of the plasma source gas, so that the bonded OH groups are created during treatment of the surfaces with the plasma. Also disclosed herein is an integrated method for release and passivation of MEMS structures which may be adjusted to be carried out in a either a single chamber processing system or a multi-chamber processing system.

A logic circuit is used to enhance redundant switch reliability. Two or more switches are monitored for logical high or low output. The output for the logic circuit produces a redundant and failsafe representation of the switch outputs. When both switch outputs are high, the output is high. Similarly, when both switch outputs are low, the logic circuit's output is low. When the output states of the two switches do not agree, the circuit resolves the conflict by memorizing the last output state which both switches were simultaneously in and produces the logical complement of this output state. Thus, the logic circuit of the present invention allows the redundant switches to be treated as if they were in parallel when the switches are open and as if they were in series when the switches are closed. A failsafe system having maximum reliability is thereby produced.

A method for making a MOSFET device (20) in a semiconductor body (10) includes the step of forming source and drain contact electrodes (12.1, 12.2) prior to growth of the gate oxide (10.3) and after formation of a high conductivity surface region (10.5). The exposed mutually opposing sidewall edges of each of the contact electrodes (12.1, 12.2) are coated with a sidewall silicon dioxide layer (15.1, 15.2), and the then exposed surface of the semiconductor body (10) between these sidewalls is etched to depth beneath the high conductivity surface region (10.5) in order to separate it into the source and drain regions (10.1, 10.2).Formation of the high conductivity region may be omitted by using Schottky barrier or impurity doped material for the contact electrodes (12.1, 12.2).

A method for fabricating a semiconductor device includes forming a first semiconductor layer on a front side of the semiconductor substrate. Additional semiconductor layers may be formed on a font side of the first semiconductor layer. The substrate is subsequently removed. In some embodiments, one or more additional semiconductor layers may be formed on the back side of the first semiconductor layer after the semiconductor substrate has been removed. Additionally, in some embodiments, a portion of the first semiconductor layer is removed along with the semiconductor substrate. In such embodiments, the first semiconductor layer is subsequently etched to a known thickness. Source regions and device electrodes may be then be formed.
