  • Publication number: 20230420550
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a trench emitter electrode located at a boundary between one end of an active cell region and an inactive cell region, a trench gate electrode located at a boundary between the other end of the active cell region and the inactive cell region, an end trench gate electrode connected to one end of the trench gate electrode, and an end trench emitter electrode connected to one end of the trench emitter electrode. A hole barrier region of a first conductivity type is provided under a body region of a second conductivity type between the end trench gate electrode and the end trench emitter electrode in a plan view. A body region in the active cell region and a body region in the inactive cell region are connected to each other by a body region between the end trench gate electrode and the end trench emitter electrode.

  • Patent number: 11322668
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate, an optical element, and a semiconductor element. The substrate includes a first region and a second region which are regions differing from each other. The optical element is formed in one of the first region and the second region. The electric element is formed in another of the first region and the second region. The first region includes a first insulating layer and a first semiconductor layer formed on the first insulating layer. The second region includes the first insulating layer, the first semiconductor layer, a second insulating layer formed on the first semiconductor layer, and a second semiconductor layer formed on the second insulating layer.

  • Patent number: 9305925
    Abstract: In order to achieve high-speed operation of an eDRAM, the eDRAM includes: a selection MISFET having a gate electrode that serves as a word line, a source region, and a drain region; a source plug electrode coupled to the source region; and a drain plug electrode coupled to the drain region DR1. The eDRAM further includes: a capacitive plug electrode coupled to the drain plug electrode; a bit line coupled to the source plug electrode; a stopper film covering the bit line; and a capacitive element that is formed over the stopper film and has a first electrode, a dielectric film, and a second electrode. The first electrode is coupled to the capacitive plug electrode, and the height of the capacitive plug electrode and that of the bit line are equal to each other.
