摘要:
A semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) substrate complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) device and fabrication methods include a p-type field effect transistor (PFET) and an n-type field effect transistor (NFET). Each of the PFET and the NFET include a transistor body of a first type of material and source and drain regions. The source and drain regions have a second type of material such that an injection charge into the source and drain region is greater than a parasitic charge into the transistor body to decrease parasitic bipolar current gain, increase critical charge (Qcrit) and reduce sensitivity to soft errors.

A method of determining one or more transistors within a particular circuit to be respectively replaced with a hardened transistor includes: identifying, as not requiring hardening, one or more transistors; identifying, as candidates for hardening, each transistor in the circuit not previously identified as not requiring hardening; and employing the hardened transistor in place of a transistor identified as a candidate for hardening. The circuit is a latch and the transistor is an SOI CMOS FET. The transistor is also an SOI transistor. The series transistor includes first and second series-connected transistors having a shared source/drain region whereby a drain of the first series-connected transistor is merged with a source of the second series-connected transistor.

A series transistor device includes a series source, a series drain, a first constituent transistor, and a second constituent transistor. The first constituent transistor has a first source and a first drain, and the second constituent transistor has a second source and a second drain. All of the constituent transistors have a same conductivity type. The series source is the first source, and the series drain is the second drain. A drain of one of the constituent transistors is merged with a source of another of the constituent transistors.

摘要:
A semiconductor device including a charge storage element present in a buried dielectric layer of the substrate on which the semiconductor device is formed. Charge injection may be used to introduce charge to the charge storage element of the buried dielectric layer that is present within the substrate. The charge that is injected to the charge storage element may be used to adjust the threshold voltage (Vt) of each of the semiconductor devices within an array of semiconductor devices that are present on the substrate.

A germanium lateral bipolar junction transistor (BJT) is formed employing a germanium-on-insulator (GOI) substrate. A silicon passivation layer is deposited on the top surface of a germanium layer in the GOI substrate. Shallow trench isolation structures, an extrinsic base region structure, and a base spacer are subsequently formed. A germanium emitter region, a germanium base region, and a germanium collector region are formed within the germanium layer by ion implantation. A silicon emitter region, a silicon base region, and a silicon collector region are formed in the silicon passivation layer. After optional formation of an emitter contact region and a collector contact region, metal semiconductor alloy regions can be formed. A wide gap contact for minority carriers is provided between the silicon base region and the germanium base region and between the silicon emitter region and the germanium emitter region.
