  • Patent number: 7589007
    Abstract: An integrated circuit has first and second complementary MOSFETs and first and second complementary MESFETs fabricated on a common substrate. An insulating layer is disposed on the common substrate. The active region uses salicide block oxide layers to align the drain and source regions to the gate. Alternatively, the active region uses poly-silicon separators surrounded by side wall oxide spacers to align the drain and source regions to the gate. The MESFET may have a drift region between the gate terminal and drain region for high voltage applications.

  • Patent number: 5612418
    Abstract: Blends of a polyacrylate elastomer with a partially hydrogenated rubber, when peroxide-cured, provide a product which is excellent in resistance to degradation by heat or contact with oil, and which is particularly suitable for making belts, hoses, gaskets and the like for use in automobile engines.

  • Patent number: 5300443
    Abstract: A method for fabricating complementary enhancement and depletion mode field ffect transistors on a single substrate comprises the steps of: a) patterning a structure of a layer of silicon formed on an insulating substrate to form first, second, third, and fourth silicon islands; b) doping the second island with a p-type dopant; c) doping the third island with a p-type dopant; d) doping the fourth island with an n-type dopant; e) forming a first electrically insulating gate layer on the third and fourth islands; f) forming a second electrically insulating gate on the first and second islands; g) forming an electrically conductive gate over the first and second electrically insulating gate layers; h) doping the second island with an n-type dopant; i) doping the fourth island with an n-type dopant; j) doping the first and third islands with a p-type dopant; and k) doping the first and third islands with a p-type dopant to transform the first island into a p-type enhancement mode field effect transistor, the seco
