A new Smart rower IC's based on the Partial SOI technology was designed for such applications as mobile communication systems, high-speed HDD systems etc. A new methodology of integrating a 0.8${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ BiCMOS compatible Smart Power technology, high voltage bipolar device, high speed SAVEN bipolar device, LDD NMOSFET and a new LDMOSFET based on the Partial SOI technology is presented in this paper. The high voltage bipolar device has a breakdown voltage of 40V for the output stage of analog circuit. The optimized Partial SOI LDMOSFET has an off-state breakdown voltage of 75 V and a specific on- resistance of 0.249mΩ.$\textrm{cm}^2$ with the drift region length of 3.5${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The high-speed SAVEN bipolar device shows cut-off frequency of about 21㎓. The simulator DIOS and DESSIS has been used to get these results.

There is difficulty in predicting the program efficiency of NOR type nonvolatile memory device adopting channel hot electron injection (CHEI) as program operation mechanism accurately since MOSFET on SOI has floating body. In this study, the dependence of program efficiency for SOI nonvolatile memory device of 200 nm channel length on SOI depletion conditions, partial depletion and full depletion, was quantitatively investigated with the aid of numerical device simulation [1].

SOI-like-bulk CMOS device is proposed, which having the advantages of SOI(Silicon On Insulator) and protects short channel effects efficiently with adding partial epitaxial process at standard CMOS process. SOI-like-bulk NMOS and PMOS with 0.25${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ gate length have designed and optimized through analyzing the characteristics of these devices and applying again to the design of processes. The threshold voltages of the designed NMOS and PMOS are 0.3[V], -0.35[V] respectively and those have shown the stable characteristics under 1.5[V] gate and drain voltages. The leakage current of typical bulk-CMOS increase with shortening the channel length, but the proposed structures on this a study reduce the leakage current and improve the subthreshold characteristics at the same time. In addition, subthreshold swing value, S is 70.91[mV/decade] in SOI-like-bulk NMOS and 63.37[mV/ decade] SOI-like-bulk PMOS. And the characteristics of SOI-like-bulk CMOS are better than those of standard bulk CMOS. To validate the circuit application, CMOS inverter circuit has designed and transient & DC transfer characteristics are analyzed with mixed mode simulation.

The microstructure of various shapes of stacking fault pyramids (SFPs) formed in multiple implant/anneal Separation by Implanted Oxygen (SIMOX) material were investigated by plan-view and cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy. In the multiple implant/anneal SIMOX, the defects in the top silicon layer are confined at the interface of the buried oxide layer at a density of ${\sim}10^6\;cm^{-2}$. The dominant defects are perfect and imperfect SFPs. The perfect SFPs were formed by the expansion and interaction of four dissociated dislocations on the {111} pyramidal planes. The imperfect SFPs show various shapes of SFPs, including I-, L-, and Y-shapes. The shape of imperfect SFPs may depend on the number of dissociated dislocations bounded to the top of the pyramid and the interaction of Shockley partial dislocations at each edge of {111} pyramidal planes.

In this article, we evaluated the structural merits and the validity of a partially insulated MOSFET (PiFET) through the fabrication of prototype transistors and an 80 nm 512M DDR DRAM with partially-insulated cell array transistors (PiCATs). The PiFETs showed the outstanding short channel effect immunity and off-current characteristics over the conventional MOSFET, resulting from self-induced halo region, self-limiting SID shallow junction, and reduced junction area due to PiOX layer formation. The DRAM with PiCATs also showed excellent data retention time. Thus, the PiFET can be a promising alternative for ultimate scaling of planar MOSFET.
