  • Patent number: 12294364
    Abstract: A circuit structure includes an enhancement mode transistor and a turn-off slew rate controller for automatically adding drain-source capacitance to the transistor when the transistor is transitioning to an off state. The added drain-source capacitance slows the turn-off slew rate (dV/dt_off) of the transistor without also increasing the turn-off energy loss (E_off). The slew rate controller can include: sensors connected to the drain region for sensing both the drain voltage and the slew rate, respectively; a logic circuit for generating and outputting an enable signal based on output voltages from the sensors; and a capacitance adder for adding to the drain-source capacitance only when the logic value of the enable signal indicates that the drain voltage is at or above a predetermined positive drain voltage level and the slew rate is positive.

  • Patent number: 12293919
    Abstract: Tin oxide films are used as spacers and hardmasks in semiconductor device manufacturing. In one method, tin oxide layer (e.g., spacer footing) needs to be selectively etched in a presence of an exposed silicon-containing layer, such as SiOC, SiON, SiONC, amorphous silicon, SiC, or SiN. In order to reduce damage to the silicon-containing layer the process involves passivating the silicon-containing layer towards a tin oxide etch chemistry, etching the tin oxide, and repeating passivation and etch in an alternating fashion. For example, passivation and etch can be each performed between 2-50 times. In one implementation, passivation is performed by treating the substrate with an oxygen-containing reactant, activated in a plasma, and the tin oxide etching is performed by a chlorine-based chemistry, such as using a mixture of Cl2 and BCl3.
