    Abstract: Formulations for voltage switchable dielectric materials include two or more different types of semiconductive materials uniformly dispersed within a dielectric matrix material. The semiconductive materials are selected to have different bandgap energies in order to provide the voltage switchable dielectric material with a stepped voltage response. The semiconductive materials can comprise inorganic particles, organic particles, or an organic material that is soluble in, or miscible with, the dielectric matrix material. Formulations optionally can also include electrically conductive materials. At least one of the conductive or semiconductive materials in a formulation can comprise particles characterized by an aspect ratio of at least 3 or greater.

    Abstract: A method for recovery of degradation caused by avalanche hot carriers is provided that includes subjecting an idle bipolar transistor exhibiting avalanche degradation to a thermal anneal step which increases temperature of the transistor thereby recovering the avalanche degradation of the bipolar transistor. In one embodiment, the annealing source is a self-heating structure that is a Si-containing resistor that is located side by side with an emitter of the bipolar transistor. During the recovering step, the bipolar transistor including the self-heating structure is placed in the idle mode (i.e., without bias) and a current from a separate circuit is flown through the self-heating structure. In another embodiment of the present, the annealing step is a result of providing a high forward current (around the peak fT current or greater) to the bipolar transistor while operating below the avalanche condition (V CB of less than 1 V). Under the above conditions, about 40% or greater of the degradation can be recovered. In yet another embodiment of the present invention, the thermal annealing step may include a rapid thermal anneal (RTA), a furnace anneal, a laser anneal or a spike anneal.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a bipolar transistor and a method of forming the transistor, where the transistor includes a collector (12) in a substrate (10), an intrinsic base (14) above the collector, an extrinsic base adjacent the intrinsic base, and an emitter (130) above the intrinsic base. The extrinsic base includes extrinsic base implant regions (82, 172, 192) adjacent the intrinsic base, when viewed in cross-section. The transistor is formed by patterning an emitter pedestal (50) for the lower portion of the emitter on the substrate above the intrinsic base. The extrinsic base is formed in regions not protected by the emitter pedestal. Subsequently, the emitter, associated spacers (180) and a silicide region (220) are formed. The silicide, extrinsic base and emitter are all self-aligned with each other.

    Abstract: A Darlington transistor has a semiconductor collector region of one conductivity type adapted to form a collector for the device. A conductive collector contact and a semiconductor base region of opposite conductivity type are connected to the collector region. First and spaced apart second semiconductor emitter regions of the one conductivity type are connected to the base region and a first conductive emitter contact is connected to the first emitter region with a second conductive emitter contact connected to the second emitter region. A first conductive base contact is connected to the base region and is conductively connected to the first emitter contact. A second conductive base contact is conductively isolated from the first base contact and is connected to the base region. A resistive trench region extends at least partly into the base region for resistively separating the base region into a first base region communicating with the first emitter contact and the second base contact, and a second base region communicating with the first base contact and the second emitter contact.
