INTEGRATED CIRCUIT COMPRISING A JFET TRANSISTOR AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SUCH AN INTEGRATED CIRCUIT
An integrated circuit includes a junction field-effect transistor formed in a semiconductor substrate. The junction field-effect transistor includes a drain region, a source region, a channel region, and a gate region. A first isolating region separates the drain region from both the gate region and the channel region. A first connection region connects the drain region to the channel region by passing underneath the first isolating region in the semiconductor substrate. A second isolating region separates the source region from both the gate region and the channel region. A second connection region connects the source region to the channel region by passing underneath the second isolating region in the semiconductor substrate.

Integrated circuit including at least one nano-ridge transistor
The disclosed technology generally relates to integrated circuit devices having at least one transistor, and methods of fabricating the same. In one aspect, an integrated circuit device can be produced from a silicon substrate and can include at least one nano-ridge transistor formed from III-V semiconducting crystal portions. The III-V portions can be grown epitaxially from the silicon substrate using an intermediate portion which can be adapted to produce aspect ratio trapping. The nano-ridge transistor can have a reduced footprint on the silicon substrate, may be adapted for power RF applications, and can be combined with MOS or CMOS transistors within one and a same integrated circuit.
Layout structure of CMOS transistor with improved insertion loss
A complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) device includes a high-resistivity substrate; a first CMOS structure disposed in a first region of the high-resistivity substrate; and a second CMOS structure of a same semiconductor type as the first CMOS structure and disposed in a second region of the high-resistivity substrate spaced apart from the first region. The high-resistivity substrate is disposed between the first CMOS structure and the second CMOS structure to separate the first CMOS structure from the second CMOS structure.
Thin-film negative differential resistance and neuronal circuit
A method is presented for forming a monolithically integrated semiconductor device. The method includes forming a first device including first hydrogenated silicon-based contacts formed on a first portion of a semiconductor material of an insulating substrate and forming a second device including second hydrogenated silicon-based contacts formed on a second portion of the semiconductor material of the insulating substrate. Source and drain contacts of the first device are formed before a gate contact of the first device and a gate contact of the second device is formed before the emitter and collector contacts of the second device. The first device can be a heterojunction field effect transistor (HJFET) and the second device can be a (heterojunction bipolar transistor) HBT. The HJFET and the HBT are integrated in a neuronal circuit and create negative differential resistance by forming a lambda diode.

MICROELECTRONIC DEVICE SUBSTRATE FORMED BY ADDITIVE PROCESS
A microelectronic device is formed by forming at least a portion of a substrate of the microelectronic device by one or more additive processes. The additive processes may be used to form semiconductor material of the substrate. The additive processes may also be used to form dielectric material structures or electrically conductive structures, such as metal structures, of the substrate. The additive processes are used to form structures of the substrate which would be costly or impractical to form using planar processes. In one aspect, the substrate may include multiple doped semiconductor elements, such as wells or buried layers, having different average doping densities, or depths below a component surface of the substrate. In another aspect, the substrate may include dielectric isolation structures with semiconductor material extending at least partway over and under the dielectric isolation structures. Other structures of the substrate are disclosed.
