摘要:
A radio frequency fully depleted silicon on insulator (RF-FDSOI) device and method of fabrication are provided. A silicon wafer for digital circuits is constructed using fully depleted silicon on insulator technology having a thin buried oxide layer. Localized areas of the silicon wafer are constructed for radio frequency circuits and/or passive devices. The silicon wafer has a silicon substrate having a resistivity greater than 1 KΩ·cm. The localized areas of the silicon wafer may include a trap rich layer implanted underneath a thin buried oxide layer. The localized areas of the silicon wafer may include a buried oxide layer that is thicker than the thin buried oxide layer. The thicker oxide layer is between 20 and 2000 nm thick. The localized areas of the silicon wafer may include a trap rich layer implanted underneath the thicker buried oxide layer.

After forming a first trench extending through a top semiconductor layer and a buried insulator layer and into a handle substrate of a semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) substrate, a dielectric waveguide material stack including a lower dielectric cladding layer, a core layer and an upper dielectric cladding layer is formed within the first trench. Next, at least one lateral bipolar junction transistor (BJT), which can be a PNP BJT, an NPN BJT or a pair of complementary PNP BJT and NPN BJT, is formed in a remaining portion of the top semiconductor layer. After forming a second trench extending through the dielectric waveguide material stack to re-expose a portion of a bottom surface of the first trench, a laser diode is formed in the second trench.

A radiation dosimeter includes a semiconductor substrate and a buried insulator layer disposed on the semiconductor substrate. The buried insulator layer has a plurality of charge traps. A semiconductor layer is disposed on the buried insulator layer. The semiconductor layer has an emitter, an intrinsic base, and a collector laterally arranged with respect to one another. In response to radiation exposure by the radiation dosimeter, positive charges are trapped in the plurality of charge traps in the buried insulator layer, the amount of positive charge trapped being used to determine the amount of radiation exposure. A method for radiation dosimetry includes providing a radiation dosimeter, where the radiation dosimeter includes a lateral silicon-on-insulator bipolar junction transistor having a buried insulator layer; exposing the radiation dosimeter to ionizing radiation; determining a change in one of the collector current and current gain of the radiation dosimeter; and determining an amount of the radiation dose based on the change in one of the collector current and current gain.

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 method for forming a fin transistor in a bulk substrate includes forming a super steep retrograde well (SSRW) on a bulk substrate. The well includes a doped portion of a first conductivity type dopant formed below an undoped layer. A fin material is grown over the undoped layer. A fin structure is formed from the fin material, and the fin material is undoped or doped. Source and drain regions are provided adjacent to the fin structure to form a fin field effect transistor.
