摘要:
In the production of a dual work function CMOS circuit, a polysilicon layer is produced for the purpose of forming a gate structure, the average grain diameter of which polysilicon layer is greater than the minimum extent in the gate structure, in order to suppress lateral dopant diffusion. In particular, a constriction having a width less than the average grain diameter is produced in the gate structure.

High voltage semiconductor devices and methods of fabrication thereof are described. In one embodiment, a method of forming a semiconductor device includes forming first trenches in an insulating material. A trap region is formed in the insulating material by introducing an impurity into the first trenches. The first trenches are filled with a conductive material.

A semiconductor wafer includes a dielectric test structure including a voltage line, a control line, and a plurality of test devices connected in parallel to the voltage line and the control line. Each test device includes a voltage-controlled resistor connected to the control line and a dielectric device, the dielectric device being connected to the voltage line via the voltage-controlled resistor. A method for dielectric reliability testing and forming an integrated circuit product is also provided, as is a wafer with a control voltage pad and an integrated circuit product.
摘要:
Very narrow structures are produced on a semiconductor substrate. A first layer deposited over an edge of a structure is anisotropically etched back. The spacer at the edge of the structure which remains after the first layer and the structure are removed, after further deposition and etching steps, finally defines the position and width of the resulting microstructure. The very narrow structure may be the channel width of a flash memory cell.
摘要:
A memory cell and a method for producing the memory cell have a plurality of structured layers disposed on a semiconducting base body and an exactly defined overlap region of a first doped region and a floating gate layer. A control gate layer is disposed approximately without any overlap over the first doped region. The memory cell can be programmed with the aid of the Fowler-Nordheim tunnel effect.
摘要:
In an integrated switching circuit with a CMOS circuit and a method for producing isolated active regions of the CMOS circuit, a field plate is doped jointly with wells located beneath it, so that the field plate includes an n-doped region and a p-doped region, and a boundary layer forms in a transition region. Upon electrical connection of the field plate regions with the particular well located beneath them, a flat band condition prevails at a substrate surface.
