Abstract:
In an LDMOS device leakage and forward conduction parameters are adjusted by integrating an Schottky diode into the LDMOS by substituting one or more n+ source regions with Schottky diodes.
Abstract:
The betas of the bipolar transistors in a BiCMOS semiconductor structure are increased by forming the emitters of the bipolar transistors with two implants: a source-drain implant that forms a first emitter region at the same time that the source and drain regions are formed, and an additional implant that forms a second emitter region at the same time that another region is formed. The additional implant has an implant energy that is greater than the implant energy of the source-drain implant.

Abstract:
A method to fabricate a transistor includes implanting dopants into a semiconductor to form a drift layer having majority carriers of a first type; etching a trench into the semiconductor; thermally growing an oxide liner into and on the trench and the drift layer; depositing an oxide onto the oxide liner on the trench to form a shallow trench isolation region; implanting dopants into the semiconductor to form a drain region in contact with the drift layer and having majority carriers of the first type; implanting dopants into the semiconductor to form a body region having majority carriers of a second type; forming a gate oxide over a portion of the drift layer and the body region; forming a gate over the gate oxide; and implanting dopants into the body region to form a source region having majority carriers of the first type.
Abstract:
A low dynamic resistance, low capacitance diode of a semiconductor device includes a heavily-doped n-type substrate. A lightly-doped n-type layer 1 micron to 5 microns thick is disposed on the n-type substrate. A lightly-doped p-type layer 3 microns to 8 microns thick is disposed on the n-type layer. The low dynamic resistance, low capacitance diode, of the semiconductor device includes a p-type buried layer, with a peak dopant density above 1×1017 cm−3, extending from the p-type layer through the n-type layer to the n-type substrate. The low dynamic resistance, low capacitance diode also includes an n-type region disposed in the p-type layer, extending to a top surface of the p-type layer.
