    摘要: A lateral junction field effect transister device includes both a surface semiconductor layer located between the gate and drain contact regions of the device and a buried semiconductor layer which extends beneath at least the drain contact region and the surface semiconductor layer of the device. The buried layer may be in the form of a continuous layer extending beneath the gate, source, and drain contact regions of the device as well as the surface semiconductor layer, or it may be provided in annular form with an aperture beneath the source and gate regions. The annular central buried layer configuration may further include an additional buried layer portion extending beneath the source region of the device. Devices having buried and surface layers in accordance with the invention feature improved high-voltage breakdown characteristics, enhanced conductivity in the "on" state, and the ability to operate in the source-follower mode.

    摘要: A pyroelectric vidicon has an improved signal-to-noise ratio by essentially eliminating pedestal noise and using signal gain to overcome preamplifier noise. Pedestal noise is substantially eliminated by charging the target, during the flyback read period, down to a small fixed value above the quiescent value. This is accomplished by setting the cathode potential, during the flyback read period, at a value below the reference value. The time duration of the flyback read period is such that the target is charged down to a value which is still above the quiescent value.

    摘要: A power integrated circuit includes a substrate with an overlying epitaxial surface layer of opposite conductivity type. A semiconductor power device, such as a high-power diode or lateral MOS transistor, is located in the epitaxial layer and forms a p-n junction diode with the substrate. The power integrated circuit also includes a separate semiconductor well region in the epitaxial layer, in which one or more low-power semiconductor circuit elements are formed. In order to minimize the problem of latch up in the low-power circuit elements due to the injection of minority carriers from the substrate, the power integrated circuit is provided with a collector region and an isolation region between the power device and the well region having the low-power circuit elements.

    摘要: A method of reducing the thickness of a wafer of fragile material, e.g. pyroelectric material, by placing the wafer, supported only at its rim, in a holder filled with a non-corrosive liquid. The holder with the exposed surface of wafer is placed in an etch bath to reduce the thickness of the wafer. The wafer is removed from the etch bath, without removing it from the holder, to measure its thickness, using its index of refraction, which is facilitated by the presence of a bubble in the non-corrosive liquid.

    摘要: A combined bipolar-field effect transistor RESURF device includes a lightly-doped epitaxial buried layer of a first conductivity type located between a semiconductor substrate of the first conductivity type and an epitaxial surface layer of a second conductivity type opposite to that of the first. The doping concentration and thickness of the epitaxial surface layer are selected in accordance with the Reduced Surface Field (RESURF) technique. A highly-doped buried region of the second conductivity type is located beneath the base region of the device and is sandwiched between the epitaxial buried layer and the epitaxial surface layer. The advantages of such a device include a substantially reduced "on" resistance, a more compact and flexible configuration, improved switching characteristics, reduced base device current requirements, and improved isolation. The device may be further enhanced by providing a buried annular region of the first conductivity type around and in contact with the buried region, and a surface-adjoining annular region of the first conductivity may be provided adjacent the base region.

    摘要: A combined lateral MOS/bipolar transistor includes an intermediate semiconductor layer of the same conductivity type as the channel region which extends laterally from the channel region to beneath the drain contact region of the device. Additionally, a floating semiconductor layer of opposite conductivity type to that of the channel region is provided between the intermediate layer and the substrate of the device. Both the intermediate layer and the substrate are relatively lightly doped, to effectively isolate the floating layer from above and below. This structure substantially improves the operating chartacteristics of the device, thus permitting operation in both the source-follower and common-source modes, while also providing a compact structure which features a relatively low normalized "on" resistance.
