The pseudo MOSFET measurement technique has been a simple and rapid method for characterization of SOI wafers without any device fabrication process. We adopted the pseudo MOSFET technique to examine the surface silicon film thickness dependence of electrical properties of SOI wafer. The measurements showed that turn-on voltage increased and electron mobility decreased as the SOI film thickness was reduced in the SOI film thickness of less than 20 nm region.

In this study, partially-depleted SOI MOSFET with multi-gate was fabricated on p-type SIMOX(Seperation by Implanted Oxygen). As increase the number of its gate, increase the breakdown voltage. But kink effect was not affected by the number of its gate. However, it is known that the asymmetric gate structure reduce kink effect. So if asymmetric multi-gate applied to partially-depleted SOI MOSFET, it is expected that the breakdown voltage of SOI MOSET with asymmetric multi-gate is higher than that of SOI MOSFET with single gate and that kink effect is reduced by SOI MOSFET with asymmetric multi-gate.

Combination of SDB(Si-wafer Direct Bonding) and electrochemical etch-stop in TMAH anisotropic etchant can be used to create a variety of MEMS(Micro Electro Mechanical System). Especially, fabrication of SDB SOI structures using electrochemical etch-stop is accurate method to fabrication of 3D(three-dimensional) microstructures. This paper describes on the fabrication of SDB SOI structures with sealed cavity for MEMS applications and thickness control of active layer on the SDB SOI structure by electrochemical etch-stop. The flatness of fabricated SDB SOI structure is very uniform and can be improved by addition of TMAH to IPA and pyrazine.

This paper describes on the fabrication of a SOI substrate by SDB technology and electrochemical etch-stop. The surface of the thinned SDB SOI substrate is more uniform than that of grinding or polishing by mechanical method and this process was found to be a very accurate method for SOI thickness control. During electrochemical etch-stop leakage current versus voltage curves were measured for analysis of the open current potential(OCP) point the passivation potential(PP) point and anodic passivation potential. The surface roughness and the controlled thickness selectivity of the fabricated a SDB SOI substrate were evaluated by using AFM and SEM respectively.

The electrothermal simulation of high voltage LIGBT(Lateral Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) in thin Silicon on insulator (SOI) and Silicon on sapphire (SOS) for thermal conductivity and sink is performed by means of MEDICI. The finite element simulations demonstrate that the thermal conductivity of the buried oxide is an important parameter for the modeling of the thermal behavior of silicon-on-insulator (SOI) devices. In this paper, using for SOI LIGBT, we simulated electrothermal for device that insulator layer with $SiO_2\;and\;Al_2O_3$ at before and after latch up to measured the thermal conductivity and temperature distribution of whole device and verified that SOI LIGBT with $Al_2O_3$ insulator had good thermal conductivity and reliability

Strained silicon 기술은 MOSFET 채널 내 캐리어 이동도를 향상시켜 집적회로의 성능을 향상시키는 기술이다. 최근에는 strained 실리콘 기술과 SOI(silicon On Insulator) 기술을 접목시켜 집적회로 소자의 특성을 더욱 향상시킨 SSOI(Strained Silicon On Insulator) 기술이 연구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 pseudo MOSFET 측정법을 이용하여 strained SOI 웨이퍼의 전기적 특성 분석을 행하였다. pseudo MOSFET 측정법은 SOI 웨이퍼의 전기적 특성분석을 위해 고안된 방법으로써 산화, 도핑 등의 소자 제조 공정 없이도 SOI 표면 실리콘층의 이동도와 매몰산화막과의 계면 특성 등을 분석해 낼 수 있는 기술이다. 표면 실리콘층의 두께와 매몰산화막의 두께가 각각 60nm, 150nm인 SOI 웨이퍼와 동일한 막 두께를 가지며 표면 실리콘층이 strained silicon인 SSOI 웨이퍼를 제작하여 그 특성을 비교 분석하였다. Pseudo MOSFET 측정 결과 Strained SOI 웨이퍼에서 표면 실리콘총 내의 전자 이동도가 일반적인 SOI 웨이퍼보다 약 25% 향상되었으며 정공 이동도나 매몰산화막의 계면 트랩밀도는 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다.

In this paper, a method to implement new Quasi-SOI LDMOSFET is introduced and the electrical characteristics of the device are studied. Key process steps of the device are explained briefly. By performing process and device simulations, electrical characteristics of the device are investigated, with emphasis on the optimization of the tilt angle of p$\^$0/ channel region. The electrical properties of the Quasi-SOI device are compared with those of bulk and SOI devices with the same process parameters. Simulated device characteristics are threshold voltage, off-state leakage current, subthreshold swing, DIBL, output resistance, lattice temperature, I$\_$D/-V$\_$Ds/, and cut-off frequency.

SOI 구조의 MOSFET은 제조공정이 상대적으로 간단하며 CMOS 래치 업 현상이 일어나지 않고, soft error에 의한 회로의 오동작 가능성이 매우 낮은 이외에도 낮은 기생 정전용량 및 누설전류 특성을 가지므로 0.1 미크론 이하의 소자를 제작하는데 적합하여 저전압, 초고속 VLSI 설계에 적합한 소자로 각광받고 있다. 본고에서는 새로운 구조의 SOI MOSFET 구조들의 특성과 장, 단점을 검토하고 나아가 BJT(Bipolar Junction Transistor) 및 기타 소자들을 SOI 구조로 제작한 결과에 대해 간단히 검토함으로써 1999년 현재 SOI 기술의 현황을 소개하고자 한다.

A SOI was fabricated by the FIPOS technique using n/p+/p silicon structure. Fabricated silicon island which has 3\ulcorner thickness and 100\ulcorner width was investigated by measuring van der Pauw resistivity, Hall mobility, dielectric breakdown voltage and leakage current. Hall mobility of the SOI was measured to be 300-500cm\ulcornerV.sec and its breakdown field was 1-2 MV/cm. The cross-sectional geometries of the SOI island were examined by SEM and optical microscope.
