Abstract: A chemically sensitive Hall device is described herein. In accordance with one example of the present invention, a Hall device comprises a substrate and a chemically sensitive layer arranged on the substrate. The chemically sensitive layer is able to interact with atoms or molecules of a gaseous or liquid fluid. Force electrodes are connected to the chemically sensitive layer for feeding a sensor current through the chemically sensitive layer along a first direction. Sense electrodes are connected to the chemically sensitive layer to tap a Hall voltage at the chemically sensitive layer along a second direction. A back gate is arranged on or integrated in the substrate and is isolated from the chemically sensitive layer by an isolation layer.

Abstract: A silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) includes a first p-well region, a second p-well region, and an n-doped region. The first p-well region is coupled to a first trigger terminal via a first p-doped tap region disposed in the first p-well region. The first p-doped tap region has a higher concentration of a p-type dopant than the first p-well region. The second p-well region is coupled to a second trigger terminal via a second p-doped tap region disposed in the second p-well region. The second p-doped tap region has a higher concentration of a p-type dopant than the second p-well region.

Abstract: An embodiment of a silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) includes a semiconductor body, an active device region, and a device isolation region configured to electrically insulate the active device region from neighboring active device regions. First SCR regions and a second SCR region of a first conductivity type are in the active device region. A first pn-junction or Schottky junction is formed at an interface between the first SCR regions and the second SCR region. A first plurality of the first SCR regions and sub-regions of the second SCR region are alternately arranged and directly adjoin one another. A second pn-junction is formed at an interface between the second SCR region and a third SCR region of a second conductivity type. A third pn-junction is formed at an interface between the third SCR region and a fourth SCR region of the first conductivity type.

Abstract: Methods for doping an active Hall effect region of a Hall effect device in a semiconductor substrate, and Hall effect devices having a doped active Hall effect region are provided. A method includes forming a first doping profile of a first doping type in a first depth region of the active Hall effect region by means of a first implantation with a first implantation energy level, forming a second doping profile of the first doping type in a second depth region of the active Hall effect region by means of a second implantation with a second implantation energy level, and forming an overall doping profile of the active Hall effect region by annealing the semiconductor substrate with the active Hall effect region having the first and the second doping profile.
