Patents by Inventor Bernhard Sell

Bernhard Sell has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • SOI substrate, a semiconductor circuit formed in a SOI substrate, and an associated production method
    Publication number: 20020042169
    Abstract: In a SOI substrate, a semiconductor circuit formed in a SOI substrate, and an associated production method, a multilayer barrier layer with a potential barrier and a diffusion barrier is used to reliably prevent diffusion of impurities between element layers. This allows semiconductor circuits to be produced with smaller structure sizes and with a higher integration density.

  • Integrated circuit configuration having at least one buried circuit element and an insulating layer, and a method of manufacturing the integrated circuit configuration
    Publication number: 20020005538
    Abstract: The integrated circuit configuration has at least one buried circuit element and an insulating layer. A multiplicity of insulating regions are in contact with one another to forming a locally delimited insulating layer in the substrate. In this way, trench capacitors implemented as buried circuit elements can be manufactured with a structure size of less than 100 nm in a simple and cost-effective manner.
