Abstract
1283383 Semi-conductor devices GENERAL ELECTRIC CO 26 Sept 1969 [10 Oct 1968] 47576/69 Heading H1K The capacitance associated with PN-junction 20, 24 is greatly increased by the formation of an inversion region of controllable extent under capacitative electrode 17, 15A. Electrode layer 17 (with terminals 11/33 and 12/34) is resistive so that an increasing control potential applied to the electrode (12) nearest the PN junction leads to the formation of an inversion layer extending increasingly from the junction. A less-thaninverting voltage obtained from potentiometer 31 at the other end of this layer determines the value of the voltage at the junction end of the electrode at which inversion first occurs. That part only of electrode 17 is effective which lies on the thinner part 15A of the insulation 15. The shape of the control voltage-capacitance characteristic may therefore be tailored by suitably shaping the thinner area of insulation or by providing a shaped electrode 17 on part only of the thinner area (see Figs. 10 and 11, not shown). In embodiments the semi-conductor body is of silicon; the insulator layer 15, 15A is of silicon dioxide; the terminals 11, 12 are of molybdenum; the resistive layer 17 is of chromium nitride or of amorphous silicon; protective insulation 21 for the resistive layer is of silicon nitride; overlying insulation 18 is of phosphosilicate or borosilicate glass if the diffused zone 20 is formed near the end of the manufacture or is of undoped material if the junction is formed near the beginning of the manufacture; and terminal layers 25, (26), and 27 are of aluminium. The capacitor may be an individual device or may form part of an integrated circuit such as one containing IGFETs formed during common processing steps.
