    摘要: The present invention encompasses a complementary semiconductor device having the same type of material providing the ohmic contacts (117, 119) to both the N-type and P-type devices. In a preferred embodiment, P-source and P -drain regions ( 80, 82 ) are heavily doped with a P-type impurity (81, 83) so that an ohmic with N-type impurity can be used as an ohmic contact. One ohmic material that may be used is nickel-germanium-tungsten. Nickel-germanium-tungsten is etchable, and therefore does not require lift-off processing. Furthermore, a preferred complementary semiconductor device made in accordance with the present invention is compatible with modern aluminum based VLSI interconnection processes.

    摘要: A method of fabricating heterojunction structures includes providing a semiconductor substrate and forming a plurality of semiconductor layers thereon. Ohmic and gate contacts are then formed on the plurality of semiconductor layers and portions of at least one of the semiconductor layers disposed between the ohmic and gate contacts are removed. Gate metal is then formed on the gate contacts. Source and drain regions are formed in the semiconductor layers and the formation is self-aligned to the gate metal. Following the formation of the source and drain regions, ohmic metal is formed on the ohmic contacts.

Specifically, an N-type region (70) extending through a semiconductor structure is formed. Additionally, a P-type region (80) extending through the substrate is formed. The P-type region (80) may be heavily doped with P-type impurities (81). A first ohmic region (117) is formed, contacting the N-type region (70). The first ohmic region may comprise an ohmic material including metal and an N-type dopant. A second ohmic region (119) is formed, contacting the P-type region (80, 81). The second ohmic region comprises the same ohmic material as the first ohmic region. One ohmic material that may be used is nickel-germanium-tungsten.

    摘要: A GaAs complementary HFET structure having an anisotype layer formed underneath the P-channel device gate is provided. The anisotype layer is heavily doped N-type and is formed in contact with a semi-insulating AlGaAs barrier of the P-channel FET. A pre-ohmic layer is formed over the anisotype layer and a gate electrode is formed over the pre-ohmic layer. In a first embodiment, the pre-ohmic layer comprises undoped gallium arsenide amd the gate electrode forms a Schottky diode with the pre-ohmic layer. The anisotype layer forms a semiconductor junction with the semi-insulating AlGaAs barrier wherein the semiconductor junction replaces or augments a conventional Schottky junction. In a second embodiment, the pre-ohmic layer comprises heavily doped InGaAs and the gate electrode forms an ohmic contact to the doped InGaAs. The semiconductor junction at the P-channel device gate results in higher built in potential barrier and improved P-channel gate turn on voltage.

    摘要: A method of fabricating semiconductor devices with a passivated surface includes providing a contact layer on a substrate so as to define an inter-electrode surface area. A first layer and an insulating layer, which are selectively etchable relative to each other and to the substrate and the contact layer, are deposited on the contact layer and the inter-electrode surface area. The insulating layer and the first layer are individually and selectively etched to define an electrode contact area and to expose the inter-electrode surface area. The exposed inter-electrode surface area is passivated, either subsequent to or during the etching of the first layer. A metal contact is formed in the electrode contact area in abutting engagement with the insulating layer so as to seal the inter-electrode surface area.

    摘要: A micro electro-mechanical systems device having variable capacitance is controllable over the full dynamic range and not subject to the “snap effect” common in the prior art. The device features an electrostatic driver (120) having a driver capacitor of fixed capacitance (121) in series with a second driver capacitor of variable capacitance (126). A MEMS variable capacitor (130) is controlled by applying an actuation voltage potential to the electrostatic driver (120). The electrostatic driver (120) and MEMS variable capacitor (130) are integrated in a single, monolithic device.

The single, center hinge (120) has a control electrode (104) coupled to the substrate (101) by an anchor (113), a hinge collar (121), a set of hinge arms (122, 123). The control electrode (104) has a shorting bar (106) coupled thereto and is electrically isolated from another control electrode (105), which is formed on the substrate (101). A travel stop (130) is positioned between the substrate and the control electrode (104). Another aspect of the present invention is a Single Pole, Double Throw (SPDT) switch (160) into which is incorporated the single, center hinge (170) and the travel stop (185, 186).
