Semiconductor Device with Low-Conducting Field-controlling Element

摘要

A semiconductor device including a low conducting field-controlling element is provided. The device can include a semiconductor including an active region (e.g., a channel), and a set of contacts to the active region. The field-controlling element can be coupled to one or more of the contacts in the set of contacts. The field-controlling element can be formed of a low conducting layer of material and have a lateral resistance that is both larger than an inverse of a minimal operating frequency of the device and smaller than an inverse of a maximum control frequency of the device.
