Abstract: The disclosure provides a method to authenticate an integrated circuit (IC) structure. The method may include forming a first authentication film (AF) material within the IC structure. A composition of the first AF material is different from an adjacent material within the IC structure. The method includes converting the first AF material into a void within the IC structure. Additionally, the method includes creating an authentication map of the IC structure to include a location of the void in the IC structure for authentication of the IC structure.

Abstract: Body-contacted semiconductor structures and methods of forming a body-contacted semiconductor structure. A semiconductor substrate, which contains of a single-crystal semiconductor material, includes a device region and a plurality of body contact regions each comprised of the single-crystal semiconductor material. A polycrystalline layer and polycrystalline regions are formed in the semiconductor substrate. The polycrystalline regions are positioned between the polycrystalline layer and the device region, and the polycrystalline regions have a laterally-spaced arrangement with a gap between each adjacent pair of the polycrystalline regions. One of the plurality of body contact regions is arranged in the gap between each adjacent pair of the polycrystalline regions.

Abstract: Semiconductor structures including electrical isolation and methods of forming a semiconductor structure including electrical isolation. Shallow trench isolation regions extend from a top surface of a semiconductor substrate into the semiconductor substrate. The semiconductor substrate contains single-crystal semiconductor material, and the shallow trench isolation regions are positioned to surround an active device region of the semiconductor substrate. A polycrystalline layer is formed in the semiconductor substrate. The polycrystalline layer has a first section beneath the active device region and a second section beneath the plurality of shallow trench isolation regions. The first section of the polycrystalline layer is located at a different depth relative to the top surface of the semiconductor substrate than the second section of the polycrystalline layer.

Abstract: Disclosed are semiconductor structure embodiments of a semiconductor-on-insulator region on a bulk substrate. The semiconductor-on-insulator region includes an upper semiconductor layer above and physically separated from the substrate by insulator-containing cavities (e.g., by dielectric layer and/or a pocket of trapped air, of trapped gas, or under vacuum) and, optionally, by a lower semiconductor layer. Disclosed method embodiments include forming openings that extend vertically through the upper semiconductor layer, through a sacrificial semiconductor layer and, optionally, through a lower semiconductor layer to the substrate. Then, a selective isotropic etch process is performed to form cavities, which extend laterally off the sides of the openings into the sacrificial semiconductor layer. Depending upon the embodiments, different process steps are further performed to form plugs in at least the upper portions of the openings and insulators (including dielectric layers and/or a pocket of trapped air, of trapped gas or under vacuum) in the cavities.
