    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for suppressing the formation of flat surface defects, such as stacking faults and microtwins in a relaxed SiGe alloy layer.
    SOLUTION: There is disclosed the method of manufacturing a substantially-relaxed SiGe alloy layer, in which flat surface defect density is decreased. The method comprises the steps of forming a strained Ge-containing layer on the front surface of an Si-containing substrate, implanting ions into the interface of the Ge-containing layer/the Si-containing substrate or under the interface, and forming the substantially-relaxed SiGe alloy layer, in which the flat surface defect density is decreased. Further, there are also provided a substantially relaxed SiGe-on-insulator, having an SiGe layer in which the flat surface defect density is decreased, and a heterostructure comprising the insulator.

A single-junction photovoltaic cell includes a doped layer comprising a dopant diffused into a semiconductor substrate; a patterned conducting layer formed on the doped layer; a semiconductor layer comprising the semiconductor substrate located on the doped layer on a surface of the doped layer opposite the patterned conducting layer; and an ohmic contact layer formed on the semiconductor layer.

    Abstract: A dual gate extremely thin semiconductor-on-insulator transistor with asymmetric gate dielectrics is provided. This structure can improve the sensor detection limit and also relieve the drift effects. Detection is performed at a constant current mode while the species will be detected at a gate electrode with a thin equivalent oxide thickness (EOT) and the gate bias will be applied to the second gate electrode with thicker EOT to maintain current flow through the transistor. As a result, a small change in the charge on the first electrode with the thin EOT will be translated into a larger voltage on the gate electrode with the thick EOT to sustain the current flow through the transistor. This allows a reduction of the sensor dimension and therefore an increase in the array size. The dual gate structure further includes cavities, i.e., microwell arrays, for chemical sensing.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an improved bipolar junction transistor (BJT) characterized in that the parasitic capacitance has been reduced without reduction in base resistance accompanying the reduction in the parasitic capacitance, and to provide a method of forming the same.
    SOLUTION: The collector region of each BJT is arranged in the surface of a semiconductor substrate and adjacent to a first shallow trench isolation (STI) region. A second STI region is formed while the second STI region extends between the first STI region and the collector region, and undercuts a part of an active base region with an undercut angle of about 90° or less. For example, the second STI region may have a section with a substantially triangular shape with an undercut angle of less than about 90° or a section with a substantially rectangular shape with an undercut angle of about 90°. Such a second STI region can be manufactured using a porous surface part formed in the upper side surface of the collector region.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for manufacturing an SiGe-on-insulator substrate material substantially relaxed, of high quality, and capable of being used as a template for strained-silicon. SOLUTION: The SOI substrate having an ultra-thin top Si layer is used as the template for compressive strain SiGe growth. When an SiGe layer is relaxed at an enough temperature, the property of its dislocation movement is such that strain release defect moves down into the thin Si layer when an embedded oxide shows semi-viscosity behavior. The thin Si layer is consumed by oxidation of an interface of the thin Si with the embedded oxide. This can be performed by using inner oxidation at a high temperature. Therefore, the role of the original thin Si layer is to use the inner oxidation and subsequently to act as a sacrificial defective sink capable of being consumed during an SiGe alloy being relaxed.
