Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) substrate having a bulk substrate layer, an active semiconductor layer, and a buried insulator layer interposed between the bulk substrate layer and the active semiconductor layer. A first source/drain (S/D) region includes a first stand-alone butting implant having a first butting width. A second S/D region includes a second stand-alone butting implant having a second butting width. A gate well-region is interposed between the first and second S/D regions. The gate well-region has a gate width that is greater than the first and second butting widths.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of forming a semiconductor device including a semiconductor substrate, the method comprising: forming a masking layer on an active semiconductor layer of the semiconductor substrate, the semiconductor substrate including a bulk substrate layer, and a buried insulator layer interposed between the bulk substrate layer and the active semiconductor layer; designating at least one source/drain (S/D) area of the semiconductor substrate; patterning the…
