An integrated circuit includes a gate electrode disposed over a substrate. A source/drain (S/D) region is disposed adjacent to the gate electrode. The S/D region includes a diffusion barrier structure disposed in a recess of the substrate. The diffusion barrier structure includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion is adjacent to the gate electrode. The second portion is distant from the gate electrode. An N-type doped silicon-containing structure is disposed over the diffusion barrier structure. The first portion of the diffusion barrier structure is configured to partially prevent N-type dopants of the N-type doped silicon-containing structure from diffusing into the substrate. The second portion of the diffusion barrier structure is configured to substantially completely prevent N-type dopants of the N-type doped silicon-containing structure from diffusing into the substrate.

A high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) includes a first III-V compound layer. A second III-V compound layer is disposed on the first III-V compound layer and is different from the first III-V compound layer in composition. A carrier channel is located between the first III-V compound layer and the second III-V compound layer. A salicide source feature and a salicide drain feature are in contact with the first III-V compound layer through the second III-V compound layer. A gate electrode is disposed over a portion of the second III-V compound layer between the salicide source feature and the salicide drain feature.

A method of forming an integrated circuit includes forming a gate structure over a substrate. Portions of the substrate are removed to form recesses adjacent to the gate structure. A dopant-rich layer having first type dopants is formed on a sidewall and a bottom of each of the recesses. A silicon-containing material structure is formed in each of the recesses. The silicon-containing material structure has second type dopants. The second type dopants are opposite to the first type dopants.

An embodiment is a semiconductor device. The semiconductor device comprises a substrate, an electrode over the substrate, and a piezoelectric layer disposed between the substrate and the electrode. The piezoelectric layer causes a strain in the substrate when an electric field is generated by the electrode.

An improved technique for providing persistence to velocity signals obtained by an ultrasound imaging system is disclosed. The velocity signals with appropriate persistence are then used to form an image on a display device so as to accurately depict fluid flow. The persistence technique intelligently decides whether or not to provide persistence to the velocity signals. In making these persistence determinations, the persistence technique not only avoids distorting the velocity values with corrupt signals, but also preserves directional flow information. The persistence technique can also make use of various thresholds to reduce errors (e.g., flash artifacts or random noise) as well as persistence of such errors.
