Abstract: The formation of a portion of a composite material from the elements of an initial material and a metal at the heart of an electronic circuit, comprises: (a) formation of a cavity (C) incorporating at least one opening (O) towards an access surface and presenting an internal wall having a zone of an initial material; (b) deposition of a metal (6) in the proximity of this zone of initial material; (c) heating of the circuit to form a portion of composite material (26) in the zone of initial material; (d) withdrawing from the cavity, via the opening, at least one portion of the metal not having formed the composite material. Independent claims are also included for: (a) an electronic circuit incorporating a portion of composite material formed by this method and acting as an electrical connection; (b) a MOS transistor incorporating a gate having a portion of composite material formed by this method.

Abstract: The production of an electronic component consists of: (a) covering the surface (S) of a substrate (100) with a portion (P) delimiting with the substrate a volume (V) filled at least partially with a temporary material; (b) evacuating the temporary material from the volume by a shaft (C) extending between the volume and an access surface; (c) introducing an electrical conducting filling material (7) into the volume from some precursors fed via the shaft. Independent claims are also included for: (1) a field effect transistor with a gate produced by this method; (2) an electronic device incorporating such a transistor.

Abstract: The device comprises a semiconductor substrate (SB), a base insulator layer (BOX) formed on the substrate, a semiconductor channel region extending in longitudinal direction and enveloping the channel region. The regions of source (S), channel (CN) and drain (D) are formed in a continuous semiconductor layer (200) which is substantially flat and parallel to the upper surface of the substrate (SB), and the region of source, drain and gate (80) are encapsulated so to ensure an electrical insulation between the gate region and the regions of source and drain, and also between the substrate and the regions of source, drain, gate and channel. The thickness of the continuous semiconductor layer (200) is of the order of tens of nanometers. The gate region (80) is continuous, or formed of upper layer and lower parts separated by a dielectric layer. Independent claims are also included for: (1) an integrated circuit comprising the semiconductor device; and (2) a method for manufacturing the device comprising the formation of the base insulator layer, the formation of a silicon layer encapsulated between two layers, anisotropic etching, selective isotropic etching, filling tunnels with dielectric material, anisotropic etching, total selective etching of the remainders of encapsulation layers, oxidation of remainder of silicon layer, and filling spaces resulting from etching with the gate material.

Abstract: A process for making a DRAM-type cell includes growing layers of silicon germanium and layers of silicon, by epitaxy from a silicon substrate; superposing a first layer of N+ doped silicon and a second layer of P doped silicon; and forming a transistor on the silicon substrate. The method also includes etching a trench in the extension of the transistor to provide an access to the silicon germanium layers relative to the silicon layers over a pre-set depth to form lateral cavities, and forming a capacitor in the trench and in the lateral cavities.

Abstract: The process for fabricating a network of nanometric lines made of single-crystal silicon on an isolating substrate includes the production of a substrate comprising a silicon body having a lateral isolation defining a central part in the body. A recess is formed in the central part having a bottom wall made of dielectric material, a first pair of opposed parallel sidewalls made of dielectric material, and a second pair of opposed parallel sidewalls. At least one of the opposed parallel sidewalls of the second pair being formed from single-crystal silicon. The method further includes the epitaxial growth in the recess, from the sidewall made of single-crystal silicon of the recess, of an alternating network of parallel lines made of single-crystal SiGe alloy and of single-crystal silicon. Also, the lines made of single-crystal SiGe alloy are etched to form in the recess a network of parallel lines made of single-crystal silicon insulated from each other.

Abstract: A transmitter or receiver includes several transducers formed opposite an aperture in a package. Each transducer includes a deformable semiconductor membrane that is capable of conducting current. The membrane is separated from a substrate zone by a cavity. This allows the membrane to deform due to the effect of an acoustic pressure or of a Lorenz force.
