    Abstract: An example embodiment is a complementary transistor inverter circuit. The circuit includes a semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) substrate, a lateral PNP bipolar transistor fabricated on the SOI substrate, and a lateral NPN bipolar transistor fabricated on the SOI substrate. The lateral PNP bipolar transistor includes a PNP base, a PNP emitter, and a PNP collector. The lateral NPN bipolar transistor includes a NPN base, a NPN emitter, and a NPN collector. The PNP base, the PNP emitter, the PNP collector, the NPN base, the NPN emitter, and the NPN collector abut the buried insulator of the SOI substrate.

    Abstract: A common cut mask is employed to define a gate pattern and a local interconnect pattern so that local interconnect structures and gate structures are formed with zero overlay variation relative to one another. A local interconnect structure may be laterally spaced from a gate structure in a first horizontal direction, and contact another gate structure in a second horizontal direction that is different from the first horizontal direction. Further, a gate structure may be formed to be collinear with a local interconnect structure that adjoins the gate structure. The local interconnect structures and the gate structures are formed by a common damascene processing step so that the top surfaces of the gate structures and the local interconnect structures are coplanar with each other.

    Abstract: A structure comprises first and at least second fin structures are formed. Each of the first and at least second fin structures has a vertically oriented semiconductor body. The vertically oriented semiconductor body is comprised of vertical surfaces. A doped region in each of the first and at least second fin structures is comprised of a concentration of dopant ions present in the semiconductor body to form a first resistor and at least a second resistor, and a pair of merged fins formed on outer portions of the doped regions of the first and at least second fin structures. The pair of merged fins is electrically connected so that the first and at least second resistors are electrically connected in parallel with each other.
