Abstract: Disclosed is a method for fabricating a shallow and narrow trench field-effect transistor (trench FET). The method includes forming a trench within a semiconductor substrate of a first conductivity type, the trench including sidewalls and a bottom portion. The method further includes forming a substantially uniform gate dielectric in the trench, and forming a gate electrode within said trench and over said gate dielectric. The method also includes doping the semiconductor substrate to form a channel region of a second conductivity type after forming the trench. In one embodiment, the doping step is performed after forming the gate dielectric and after forming the gate electrode. In another embodiment, the doping step is performed after forming the gate dielectric, but prior to forming the gate electrode. Structures formed by the invention's method are also disclosed.

Abstract: A rack-mount storage system comprises an equipment cabinet that defines at least one device opening therein. A first device sized to be received by the first device opening defines a first mounting pathway therein. The first device has a chassis that is sized to receive at least one component of the first device and that also defines at least a portion of the first mounting pathway. A support spar sized to be received by the first mounting pathway and being sized to engage said equipment cabinet and extend substantially between first and second sides of the equipment cabinet engages the first mounting pathway and the equipment cabinet to support said first device in the equipment cabinet.

Abstract: A fabrication process for a trench type power semiconductor device includes forming a mask layer with openings over a semiconductor surface. Through the openings of the mask, trenches with gates are then formed in the semiconductor body. Thereafter, insulation plugs are formed atop the gates and into the openings of the mask layer. The mask layer is then removed, leaving the insulation plugs extending above the semiconductor surface. Source implant regions are then formed between the trenches. Thereafter, spacers are formed along the sides of the insulation plugs, covering portions of the source implant regions adjacent the trenches. Using these spacers as masks, the exposed portions of the source implant regions are then etched and removed. The remaining source implant regions under the spacers are then driven to form source regions. Thereafter, shallow high conductivity contact regions are formed in the etched regions. Source and drain contacts are then formed over the device.
