SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240234558 titled 'SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE
The semiconductor device described in the abstract consists of two active patterns, each with a lower pattern and sheet patterns, along with gate structures and source/drain patterns.
- The first active pattern includes a first lower pattern and first sheet patterns, while the second active pattern includes a second lower pattern and second sheet patterns.
- The height of the second lower pattern is smaller than the height of the first lower pattern.
- There are first gate and second gate structures on the respective lower patterns.
- First source/drain pattern is on the first lower pattern and connected to the first sheet patterns.
- Second source/drain pattern is on the second lower pattern and connected to the second sheet patterns.
- The width of the upper surface of the first lower pattern differs from the width of the upper surface of the second lower pattern.
- The number of first sheet patterns is different from the number of second sheet patterns.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in the manufacturing of advanced semiconductor devices for various electronic applications. - It can enhance the performance and efficiency of integrated circuits in electronic devices.
Problems Solved: - Provides a more efficient and compact design for semiconductor devices. - Allows for better control and manipulation of electrical signals within the device.
Benefits: - Improved performance and functionality of electronic devices. - Enhanced integration and miniaturization of semiconductor components.
Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Semiconductor Device Technology for Enhanced Electronic Performance This technology can be applied in the production of smartphones, tablets, computers, and other consumer electronics to improve their speed and efficiency.
Questions about Semiconductor Device Technology: 1. How does the height difference between the lower patterns affect the performance of the semiconductor device? 2. What are the specific advantages of having different numbers of sheet patterns in the first and second active patterns?
