SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18199504 titled 'SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The semiconductor device described in the patent application includes a substrate with opposing first and second surfaces. An isolation layer extends through the substrate, defining an active region. A gate electrode is located on the first surface of the substrate, and a wiring structure connects the gate electrode to the active region. The active region consists of a target doped region and a path doped region. The target doped region, located between the isolation layer and the gate electrode, contains a dopant with a high concentration. The path doped region, extending from the second surface of the substrate to the target doped region, contains a dopant with a lower concentration than the target doped region. Both the target doped region and the path doped region are formed by implanting the dopant through the second surface of the substrate.

  • The semiconductor device includes a substrate with opposing surfaces, an isolation layer, a gate electrode, and a wiring structure.
