摘要:
A microwave field effect transistor (10) has a high conductivity gate (44) overlying a double heterojunction structure (14, 18, 22) that has an undoped channel layer (18). The heterojunction structure overlies a substrate (12). A recess layer that is a not intentionally doped (NID) layer (24) overlies the heterojunction structure and is formed with a predetermined thickness that minimizes impact ionization effects at an interface of a drain contact of source/drain ohmic contacts (30) and permits significantly higher voltage operation than previous step gate transistors. Another recess layer (26) is used to define a gate dimension. A Schottky gate opening (42) is formed within a step gate opening (40) to create a step gate structure. A channel layer (18) material of InxGa1−xAs is used to provide a region of electron confinement with improved transport characteristics that result in higher frequency of operation, higher power density and improved power-added efficiency.

摘要:
A method and system for uniquely identifying each semiconductor device die from a wafer is provided. Identifying features are associated with device die bond pads. In one embodiment, one or more tab features are patterned and associated with each of one or more device die bond pads. These features can represent a code (e.g., binary or ternary) that uniquely identifies each device die on the wafer. Each tab feature can be the same shape or different shapes, depending upon the nature of coding desired. Alternatively, portions of the one or more device die bond pads can be omitted as a mechanism for providing coded information, rather than adding portions to the device die bond pads.
摘要:
A method for patterning a substrate having a surface with high aspect ratio topography with a photoresist is described. Specifically the surface of a semiconductor substrate is pre-wetted with a solvent solution to form a liquid solvent film. An additional amount of the solvent solution is added to form a solvent puddle on the liquid solvent film. Photoresist is dispensed onto the solvent puddle for a sufficient time and in a sufficient amount to allow diffusion of the photoresist and the solvent puddle into the openings defined in the topography of the substrate. The solvent solution in and on the surface of the openings defined in the substrate from the pre-wetting step is replaced with the photoresist by facilitating diffusion of the photoresist into the topography openings. A photoresist layer is then cast in a predetermined thickness on the surface of the substrate.
