    Abstract: An insulated gate field-effect transistor is fabricated to include an improved insulation layer comprising a film of silicon dioxide covered with a film of silicon nitride. The method of fabrication includes the thermal oxidation of a semiconductor silicon surface in a ''''reducing'''' atomsphere. The use of hydrogen as a carrier gas for oxygen provides a thermally grown, pinholefree oxide film having improved stability under conditions of heat cycling and electrical bias. The process permits a control of oxidation rate by adjusting the oxygen content of the gaseous mixture, rather than by the control of temperature. Best device characteristics are obtained by proceeding immediately with the vapor deposition of silicon nitride on the oxide, as a substantially continuous operation in the same reactor.

    Abstract: An improved means and method is provided for form- lng isolated device regions suitable for the construction of control circuits and devices, in the presence of and isolated from other device regions suitable for the construction of bottom-contact power devices. In a preferred embodiment the desired structure is obtained by growing a first epitaxial layer (11) on a semiconductor substrate (10), providing a patterned mask (12) in which areas (11b) of the epitaxial layer (11) are exposed to be etched, etching recesses (13) In the exposed areas (11b) to a first depth (13a) to leave pedestals (11d) beneath the masked areas (11a), and forming a second (14) and third (15) epitaxial layer on the substrate (11) to fill the recesses (13). The second epitaxial layer (14) is U-shaped and conformally coats the bottom and sides of the recesses (13). The U-shaped layer (14) acts as the isolation layer separating the first epitaxial layer portions in the pedestals (11d) wherein the power devices will be built, from the third epitaxial layer regions (15b, 25b) which fill in the U, where the control devices will be built. The doping of the power device region, isolation layer, and control circuitry region may be optimized separately.

    Abstract: A technique for improving the frequency response of a semiconductor device employing silicon as the semiconductor material. Parasitic components inherent in semiconductor devices degrade the performance of these devices at higher frequencies. Typically, a parasitic capacitor includes a dielectric material sandwiched between a conductive interconnect (31A, 31B) and a substrate (10) or a bottom contact (18). Further, in the past, the thickness of this dielectric material has been similar to that of the third dielectric material (17) of the present invention. However, in the present invention the effective thickness of the dielectric material has been increased by including a first and second dielectric material (15, 16) as well as the third dielectric material (17). Increasing the thickness of the dielectric of a parasitic capacitor decreases the value of the parasitic capacitance; and therefore increases the cut-off frequency of the semiconductor device.
