20080251858 | FIELD EFFECT TRANSISTOR AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME - A field effect transistor having a T- or Γ-shaped fine gate electrode of which a head portion is wider than a foot portion, and a method for manufacturing the field effect transistor, are provided. A void is formed between the head portion of the gate electrode and a semiconductor substrate using an insulating layer having a multi-layer structure with different etch rates. Since parasitic capacitance between the gate electrode and the semiconductor substrate is reduced by the void, the head portion of the gate electrode can be made large so that gate resistance can be reduced. In addition, since the height of the gate electrode can be adjusted by adjusting the thickness of the insulating layer, device performance as well as process uniformity and repeatability can be improved. | 10-16-2008 |

In the semiconductor device, in order to form source and drain electrodes and the T-gate electrode on a substrate, first and second protective layers constructed with silicon oxide layers or silicon nitride layers are formed on sides of a supporting part under a head part of the T-gate electrode, and the second protective layer constructed with a silicon oxide layer or silicon nitride layer is formed on sides of the source and drain electrodes.

20090146724 | SWITCHING CIRCUIT FOR MILLIMETER WAVEBAND CONTROL CIRCUIT - Provided is a switching circuit for a millimeter waveband control circuit. The switching circuit for a millimeter waveband control circuit includes a switching cell disposed on a signal port path to match an interested frequency and including at least one transistor coupled vertically to an input/output transmission line and a plurality of ground via holes disposed symmetrically in an upper portion and a lower portion of the input/output transmission line; capacitors for stabilizing a bias of the switching cell; and bias pads coupled in parallel to the capacitor to control the switching cell. Therefore, the switching circuit may be useful to improve its isolation by simplifying its design and layout through the use of symmetrical structure of optimized switching cells without the separate use of different switch elements, and also to reduce its manufacturing cost through the improved yield of the manufacturing process and the enhanced integration since it is possible to reduce a chip size of an integrated circuit in addition to its low insertion loss. | 06-11-2009 |
20090170250 | TRANSISTOR OF SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND METHOD OF FABRICATING THE SAME - Provided are a transistor of a semiconductor device and method of fabricating the same. The transistor includes: an epitaxy substrate disposed on a semi-insulating substrate and having a buffer layer, a first Si planar doping layer, a first conductive layer, a second Si planar doping layer, and a second conductive layer, which are sequentially stacked, the second Si planar doping layer having a doping concentration different from that of the first Si planar doping layer; a source electrode and a drain electrode diffusing into the first Si planar doping layer to a predetermined depth and disposed on both sides of the second conductive layer to form an ohmic contact; and a gate electrode disposed on the second conductive layer between the source and drain electrodes and being in contact with the second conductive layer. In this structure, both isolation and switching speed of the transistor can be increased. Also, the maximum voltage limit applied to the transistor is increased due to increases in gate turn-on voltage and threshold voltage and a reduction in parallel conduction element. As a result, the power handling capability of the transistor can be improved, thus improving a high-power low-distortion characteristic and an isolation characteristic. | 07-02-2009 |

The transistor of a semiconductor device includes an epitaxial substrate having a buffer layer, a first silicon (Si) planar doped layer, a first conductive layer, a second Si planar doped layer having a different dopant concentration from the first Si planar doped layer, and a second conductive layer, which are sequentially formed on a semi-insulating substrate; a source electrode and a drain electrode formed on both sides of the second conductive layer to penetrate the first Si planar doped layer to a predetermined depth to form an ohmic contact; and a gate electrode formed on the second conductive layer between the source electrode and the drain electrode to form a contact with the second conductive layer, wherein the gate electrode, the source electrode and the drain electrode are electrically insulated by an insulating layer, and a predetermined part of an upper part of the gate electrode is formed to overlap at least one of the source electrode and the drain electrode. Therefore, a maximum voltage that can be applied to the switching device is increased due to increases of a gate turn-on voltage and a breakdown voltage, and decrease of a parallel conduction component. As a result of this improved power handling capability, high-power and low-distortion characteristics and high isolation can be expected from the switching device. | 06-16-2011 |
