Abstract: An integrated circuit device includes a substrate having adjacent first and second regions, and a device isolation structure in the substrate between the first and second regions. The first and second regions of the substrate may respectively include transistors configured to be driven at different operational voltages, and the device isolation structure may electrically separates the transistors of the first region from the transistors of the second region. The device isolation structure includes outer portions immediately adjacent to the first and second regions and an inner portion therebetween. The outer portions of the device isolation structure comprise a material having an etching selectivity with respect to that of the inner portion. Related devices and fabrication methods are also discussed.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for identifying Streptomyces species using groEL2 gene that can compensate for drawbacks of conventional methods of morphologic classification and 16S rDNA identification being time-consuming, unfaithful, and expensive, thus enabling to efficiently identify Streptomyces species.

Abstract: High voltage schottky diodes are provided including a first conductivity type semiconductor substrate and a second conductivity type well region defined by the substrate. A first conductive film is provided on a surface of the substrate including the well. A conductive electrode is provided on at least one side of the first conductive film above the substrate including the well. An insulating film is provided between the conductive electrode and the substrate. A cathode contact region is provided outside the conductive electrode remote from the first conductive film. The cathode contact region is doped with high concentration impurities having a second conductive type.
