摘要:
A process for fabricating a micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) composed of fixed components fixedly supported on a lower substrate and movable components movably supported on the lower substrate. The process utilizes an upper substrate separate from the lower substrate. The upper substrate is selectively etched in its top layer to form therein a plurality of posts which project commonly from a bottom layer of the upper substrate. The posts include the fixed components to be fixed to the lower substrate and the movable components which are resiliently supported only to one or more of the fixed components to be movable relative to the fixed components. The lower substrate is formed in its top surface with at least one recess. The upper substrate is then bonded to the top of the lower substrate upside down in such a manner as to place the fixed components directly on the lower substrate and to place the movable components upwardly of the recess. Finally, the bottom layer of the upper substrate is removed to release the movable components from the bottom layer for floating the movable components above the recess and allowing them to move relative to the lower substrate, while keeping the fixed components fixed to the top of the lower substrate.

A thin film transistor of SOI (Silicon-On-Insulator) type includes a buried oxide layer formed on a semiconductor substrate, a silicon layer of a first conductive type formed on the buried oxide layer, and an upper oxide layer formed on the silicon layer. The silicon layer has a body region of a second conductive type, source region of the first conductive type, drain region of the first conductive type, and a drift region of the first conductive type. The silicon layer is formed with a first portion of a thickness T1 in which the doping region is formed, and a second portion of a thickness T2 in which the body region is formed to reach the buried oxide layer. When the thicknesses T1 and T2 are determined so as to satisfy the relationships: 0.4 .mu.m
摘要:
A solid state relay composed of a series connected pair of LDMOSFETs has a minimized output capacitance. Each LDMOSFET is configured to have a silicon layer of a first conductive type, a drain region of the first conductive type diffused in the top surface of the silicon layer, a well region of a second conductive type diffused in the silicon layer in a laterally spaced relation from the drain region, and a source region of the first conductive type diffused within the well region to define a channel extending between the source region and a confronting edge of the well region along the top surface of the silicon layer. Each LDMOSFET is of an SOI (Silicon-On-Insulator) structure composed of a silicon substrate placed on a supporting plate, a buried oxide layer on the silicon substrate, and the silicon layer on the buried oxide layer. The well region is diffused over the full depth of the silicon layer to have its bottom in contact with the buried oxide layer, so that the well region forms with the silicon layer a P-N interface only at a small area adjacent the channel. Because of this reduced P-N interface and also because of the buried oxide layer exhibiting a much lower inductive capacitance than the silicon layer, it is possible to greatly reduce a drain-source capacitance for minimizing the output capacitance of the relay in the non-conductive condition.

摘要:
A method for manufacturing a static induction type semiconductor device is to form gate zones on a surface side of a semiconductor substrate, to cover the surface including the gate zones with an oxide film, to form through the oxide film apertures for providing cathode zones in the substrate, the apertures respectively overlapping partly each gate zone, and to form the cathode zones with thermal diffusion of an impurity carried out through the apertures, the cathode zones thus partly overlapping the gate zones. Concentration of the impurity as well as the depth of the diffusion at thus made impurity diffusion zones can be thereby stabilized, and eventually electric characteristics of enhancement type, static induction type semiconductor device can be sufficiently made stable.
