摘要： A monolithic semiconductor optical detector is formed on a substrate having a plurality of substantially parallel trenches etched therein. The trenches are further formed as a plurality of alternating N-type and P-type trench regions separated by pillar regions of the substrate which operate as an I region between the N and P trench regions. First and second contacts are formed on the surface of the substrate and interconnect the N-type trench regions and the P-type trench regions, respectively. Preferably, the trenches are etched with a depth comparable to an optical extinction length of optical radiation to which the detector is responsive.

摘要： A method for fabricating recessed source and recessed drain regions of aggressively scaled CMOS devices. In this method a processing sequence of plasma etch, deposition, followed by plasma etch is used to controllably form recessed regions of the source and the drain in the channel of a thin body, much less than 40 nm, device to enable subsequent epitaxial growth of SiGe, SiC, or other materials, and a consequent increase in the device and ring oscillator performance. A Field Effect Transistor device is also provided, which includes: a buried oxide layer; a silicon layer above the buried oxide layer; an isotropically recessed source region; an isotropically recessed drain region; and a gate stack which includes a gate dielectric, a conductive material, and a spacer.

摘要： A controllable brake includes a rotor supported on one shaft end. The rotor is housed within a chamber containing a field controllable material which is acted upon by a magnetic field generator to change the rheology of the material and thereby impede movement of the rotor. The shaft is supported by two bearings which, in combination with the housing define a second housing chamber adapted to enclose means for monitoring and/or controlling the brake and in this way, an integrated, compact controllable brake is provided.
