Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide a structure and related method for a gate over semiconductor regions that are not aligned. Structures according to the disclosure include a first semiconductor region extending from a first widthwise end to a second widthwise end within a substrate. A second semiconductor region is adjacent the first semiconductor region and extends from a first widthwise end to a second widthwise end within the substrate. The second widthwise end of the second semiconductor region is non-aligned with the second widthwise end of the first semiconductor region. A gate structure is over the substrate and extends widthwise over the first semiconductor region and the second semiconductor region.

Abstract: A leak detection system is provided with a first window configured to mount at a first opening in a first wall portion in an enclosure (e.g., for a gas turbine engine or other equipment in a power plant). The leak detection system includes a leak sensor configured to transmit a beam through the first window and an interior of the enclosure to obtain sensor feedback. The leak detection system includes a controller configured to evaluate the sensor feedback to monitor for a leak of a hazardous fluid in the enclosure.
