摘要:
A gas-sensitive field-effect transistor (GasFET) for the detection or measurement of an amount of hydrogen sulfide present in ambient air includes a raised gate electrode and a transistor structure. The raised gate electrode may be formed from or coated with a gas-sensitive material such as tin oxide, or silver, silver oxide or mixtures thereof. An insulator layer may be disposed on top of the transistor structure. An air gap is formed between the gas-sensitive layer of the raised gate electrode and the insulator layer on top of the transistor structure.

The invention concerns a sensor with silicon-containing components from whose sensitive detection element electrical signals relevant to a present analyte can be read out by means of a silicon semiconductor system. The invention is characterized in that the silicon-containing components are covered with a layer made of hydrophobic material in order to prevent unwanted signals caused by moisture.

摘要:
A field-effect-controllable semiconductor component has at least one source zone and at least one drain zone of a first conductivity type, and at least one body zone of a second conductivity type. The body zone is provided between the source zone and the drain zone. In each case at least a first and a second region of the second conductivity type are provided in a channel zone. The first region has a first doping concentration and the second region has a second doping concentration, which is lower than the first doping concentration. The combination of the two regions produces a semiconductor component threshold voltage greater than zero and the on resistance is lower than that merely due to a channel zone doped with the first or second doping concentration.

A method and apparatus for performing ALD deposition of hafnium oxide on a substrate is provided. The apparatus includes a process chamber, a precursor delivery subsystem, an oxidizer delivery subsystem, a purge gas subsystem, a solvent flush subsystem, and optional solvent recovery and purification subsystems. The method includes pulsing precursor compounds into the process chamber in sequence. While one precursor is pulsed, purge gas is provided through the other precursor line. After pulsing, precursor lines are purged, and the chamber is evacuated and purged. A solvent flush step is employed to remove precursor deposits that build up in piping over time.

摘要:
In its gate region (10), a silicon MOS technology component has a surface structure (6) having edges and/or vertices at which inversion regions, suitable as quantum wires or quantum dots, are preferentially formed when a gate voltage is applied. The surface structure is preferably formed as a silicon pyramid (6) by local molecular beam epitaxy.

A field effect transistor includes a semiconductor substrate of a first conductivity having a source zone and a drain zone of an opposite, second conductivity spaced apart therein and extending to the surface thereof. A surface channel adjoins the surface, is of the second conductivity, and extends in an area located between the source and drain zones. A gate electrode is carried above the surface channel, either on an insulator, or directly on the surface to form a Schottky junction. A second zone lies beneath the surface below or in overlapping relation to the surface channel and extends between the drain and source zones. The second channel is doped with dopant particles whose energy level in the forbidden band of the semiconductor substrate, at an operating temperature T, lies at a distance of more than 1/2 kT from the conduction band edge and valence band edge of the semiconductor substrate. Application of proper potentials with respect to the start voltage required for ionization of the dopant particles in the second channel causes the field effect transistor to function as a high-speed switch. Connection of the field effect transistor in series with a resistance between the poles of a power supply which has a voltage greater than the start voltage causes the field effect transistor to operate, in combination with the resistor, as an oscillator.
