20160049473 | ALL AROUND CONTACT DEVICE AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME - A device is provided that comprises a first pillar disposed in a first region and overlying a base structure, and a second pillar disposed in a second region and overlying the base structure and being spaced apart from the first pillar by a device region. A bridge is disposed in the device region with a first end connected to the first pillar and a second end connected to the second pillar. The bridge includes a top, sides, and a bottom. The bridge is formed from one or more heterostructures with an undercut opening extending from the bottom to an underlying structure. A four-sided conductive contact wraps around and substantially surrounds the bridge around its top, its sides, and its bottom along at least a portion of its length between the first and second end. | 02-18-2016 |
20160049504 | INTEGRATED MULTICHANNEL AND SINGLE CHANNEL DEVICE STRUCTURE AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME - An integrated circuit is disclosed that includes a single channel device having a first portion of a single shared heterostructure overlying a substrate structure in a single channel device area, and a gate contact that is in contact with the first portion of the single shared heterostructure. The integrated circuit also includes a multichannel device comprising a second portion of the single shared heterostructure overlying the substrate structure in a multichannel device area, a barrier layer overlying the second portion of the single shared heterostructure, and a superlattice structure overlying the barrier layer, the superlattice structure comprising a plurality of heterostructures. An isolation region in the single shared heterostructure electrical isolates the single channel device from the multichannel device. | 02-18-2016 |
20160104703 | INTEGRATED ENHANCEMENT MODE AND DEPLETION MODE DEVICE STRUCTURE AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME - A circuit is provided that includes a castellated channel device that comprises a heterostructure overlying a substrate structure, a castellated channel device area formed in the heterostructure that defines a plurality of ridge channels interleaved between a plurality of trenches, and a three-sided castellated conductive gate contact that extends across the castellated channel device area. The three-sided gate contact substantially surrounds each ridge channel around their tops and their sides to overlap a channel interface of heterostructure of each of the plurality of ridge channels. The three-sided castellated conductive gate contact extends along at least a portion of a length of each ridge channel. | 04-14-2016 |
20160126340 | MULTICHANNEL DEVICES WITH IMPROVED PERFORMANCE AND METHODS OF MAKING THE SAME - A transistor device is provided that comprises a base structure, and a superlattice structure overlying the base structure and comprising a multichannel ridge having sloping sidewalls. The multichannel ridge comprises a plurality of heterostructures that each form a channel of the multichannel ridge, wherein a parameter of at least one of the heterostructures is varied relative to other heterostructures of the plurality of heterostructures. The transistor device further comprises a three-sided gate contact that wraps around and substantially surrounds the top and sides of the multichannel ridge along at least a portion of its depth. | 05-05-2016 |
