Abstract: A semiconductor substrate, an insulating layer made of silicon oxide formed on the semiconductor substrate and a semiconductor layer made of silicon formed on the insulating layer are provided, and the semiconductor layer constitutes an optical waveguide in an optical signal transmission line section and an optical modulator in an optical modulation section. Also, the insulating layer is removed except for a part thereof to have a hollow structure with a cavity, and both side surfaces and a lower surface of each of the semiconductor layers constituting the optical waveguide and the optical modulator are exposed and covered with air.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a field effect transistor device includes patterning a fin on substrate, patterning a gate stack over a portion of the fin and a portion of an insulator layer arranged on the substrate, forming a protective barrier over the gate stack, a portion of the fin and a portion of the insulator layer, the protective barrier enveloping the gate stack, depositing a second insulator layer over portions of the fin and the protective barrier, performing a first etching process to selectively remove portions of the second insulator layer to define cavities that expose portions of source and drain regions of the fin without appreciably removing the protective barrier, and depositing a conductive material in the cavities.

Abstract: First, half etching is performed to a semiconductor layer formed on an insulating layer to form trenches at positions of slab-portion regions in which slab portions are to be formed. After filling the trenches with an insulating film, a resist mask which covers the semiconductor layer at a projecting-portion region in which a projecting portion is to be formed and whose pattern ends are located on upper surfaces of the insulating films is formed on upper surfaces of the semiconductor layer and the insulating film, and full etching is performed to the semiconductor layer with using the resist mask and the insulating film as an etching mask, thereby forming an optical waveguide constituted of the projecting portion and the slab portions. Thereafter, a first interlayer insulating film is formed to cover the optical waveguide.

Abstract: When an optical waveguide is formed, an area of an opening of a resist mask is equal to an area of a semiconductor layer for a dummy pattern exposed from the resist mask, and the semiconductor layer for the dummy pattern exposed from the resist mask has a uniform thickness in a region in which the dummy pattern is formed. As a result, an effective pattern density does not change in etching the semiconductor layer for the dummy pattern, and accordingly, it is possible to form a rib-shaped optical waveguide having desired dimensions and a desired shape.
