Patents by Inventor Stephane BADEL

Stephane BADEL has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 12073863
    Abstract: A memory and an electronic device are provided. The memory includes a storage element (10), a first transistor (21), a second transistor (22), a first bit line (BLA), and a second bit line (BLB). The storage element (10) is coupled to the first bit line (BLA) and the second bit line (BLB) by separately using the first transistor (21) and the second transistor (22), and the first transistor (21) and the second transistor (22) are turned on during a write operation. When the foregoing solution is used, compared with providing a required write current by using one transistor, providing the write current by using the two transistors may enable a smaller transistor to meet a requirement, thereby reducing an area required by the entire memory. In addition, the memory in this application can still support a dual-port feature in a read operation.

  • Patent number: 11664440
    Abstract: An embodiment of the invention provides a fabrication method of a field-effect transistor. The method includes: forming a support structure with a superlattice feature on a semiconductor substrate, where the support structure includes a first semiconductor material layer and a second semiconductor material layer that are alternately disposed, and an isolation layer is disposed on two sides of the support structure; forming, along a boundary between the isolation layer and the support structure, a dummy gate structure that covers the support structure, where a length of the dummy gate structure in a gate length direction is less than the first semiconductor material layer; removing, along the gate length direction, an area other than a sacrificial layer in the first semiconductor material layer to form an insulation groove; and forming a source and a drain in a preset source drain area along the gate length direction.
