  • Publication number: 20240142301
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a sensing circuit, including a photo-sensing component, a first transistor, and a temperature-sensing component. The photo-sensing component is configured to receive a light and transmit a first current according to an intensity of the light. A gate terminal of the first transistor is configured to receive a first control circuit. The photo-sensing component and the first transistor are coupled in series between first and second nodes. The temperature-sensing component is coupled between the first and second nodes and is configured to generate a second current according to a temperature. The temperature-sensing component includes a channel structure, a first gate, a second gate, and a light-shielding structure. The channel structure is configured to transmit the second current.

  • Publication number: 20230207647
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate, a first gate oxide layer, and a first source/drain doped region. The first gate oxide layer is disposed on the semiconductor substrate, and the first gate oxide layer includes a main portion and an edge portion having a sloping sidewall. The first source/drain doped region is disposed in the semiconductor substrate and located adjacent to the edge portion of the first gate oxide layer. The first source/drain doped region includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion is disposed under the edge portion of the first gate oxide layer in a vertical direction, and the second portion is connected with the first portion.
