Abstract: A structure includes a field effect transistor (FET) stack including a plurality of transistors over a buried insulator layer. A polysilicon isolation region is in a substrate below the FET stack and the buried insulator layer. A resistor network is in the polysilicon isolation region, the resistor network having a different resistivity than the polysilicon isolation region. The resistor network may include a resistive wire having a first width and a resistive pad within the resistive wire under each FET in the FET stack. Each resistive pad has a second width larger than the first width of the resistive wire. A length of the resistive wire is different aside each resistive pad to adjust a threshold voltage of an adjacent FET in the FET stack to a predetermined value to compensate for non-linear voltage distribution between an input and an output of the FET stack.

Abstract: Structures including an edge coupler, and methods of fabricating a structure that includes an edge coupler. The structure includes an edge coupler having a waveguide core with an end surface and a longitudinal axis. The end surface defines a plane tilted in a first direction at a first acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis and tilted in a second direction at a second acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis. The second direction differs from the first direction.

Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide a method, including forming a shallow trench isolation (STI) in a substrate. The method further includes doping the substrate with a noble dopant, thereby forming a disordered crystallographic layer under the STI. The method also includes converting the disordered crystallographic layer to a doped buried polysilicon layer under the STI and a high resistivity (HR) polysilicon layer under the doped buried polysilicon layer. The method includes forming a pair of contacts operatively coupled in a spaced manner to the doped buried polysilicon layer.
