TRANSISTOR WITH COUNTER-ELECTRODE CONNECTION WITH THE SOURCE/DRAIN CONTACT

摘要

The field effect device includes an active area made from semi-conducting material and a gate electrode separated from the active area by a dielectric gate material. A counter-electrode is separated from the active area by a layer of electrically insulating material. Two source/drain contacts are arranged on the active area on each side of the gate electrode. One of the source/drain contacts is made from a single material, overspills from the active area and connects the active area with the counter-electrode. The counter-electrode contact is delineated by a closed peripheral insulating pattern.
