    • An ESD protection method and apparatus are provided for an IC chip having an I/O pad and I/O circuitry coupled to the I/O pad. A low threshold voltage FET is coupled to the I/O pad in parallel with the I/O circuitry for protecting the IC chip from an ESD event on the I/O pad. The FET also is coupled to a first voltage terminal of the I/O circuitry for providing a shunting path for the ESD event, thereby effectuating the protecting of the IC chip from the ESD event on the I/O pad. A first control circuit is coupled to a gate of the FET for maintaining the gate at a voltage level below a threshold voltage of the FET, thereby maintaining the FET in an off state during normal operation of the IC chip. Preferably a second control circuit is coupled between the FET and the first voltage terminal and operates in conjunction with the first control circuit for maintaining the FET in an off state during normal operation of the IC chip. The first control circuit preferably comprises a short circuit between the gate of the FET and the first voltage terminal, an inverter coupled between the gate of the FET and a second voltage terminal or a negative bias generator coupled to the gate of the FET. The second control circuit preferably comprises a short circuit between the FET and the first voltage terminal or a diode coupled between the FET and the first voltage terminal.

    • A significant and very effective decoupling capacitor and heat sink combination that, in a single structure provides both a heat sink and a decoupling capacitor in close proximity to the active circuit on the chip requiring either heat sinking or decoupling capacitance or both. This is achieved by forming on a semiconductor chip, having a buried oxide layer therein, an integrated high-performance decoupling capacitor that uses a metallic deposit greater than 30 microns thick formed on the back surface of the chip and electrically connected to the active chip circuit to result in a significant and very effective decoupling capacitor and heat sink in close proximity to the active circuit on the chip requiring such decoupling capacitance and heat sinking capabilities. The decoupling capacitance can use the substrate of the chip itself as one of the capacitive plates and a formed metallic deposit as the second capacitive plate which also serves as a heat sink for the active circuit formed in the chip. The structure thus provides both a significant and effective decoupling capacitance in close proximity to the active circuit on the chip requiring such decoupling capacitance as well as providing improved heat sinking for the decoupled active circuit.

    • A process for forming heterogeneous silicide structures on a semiconductor substrate (10) includes implanting molybdenum ions into selective areas of the semiconductor substrate (10) to form molybdenum regions (73, 74, 75, 76). Titanium is then deposited over the semiconductor substrate (10). The semiconductor substrate (10) is annealed at a temperature between approximately 600° C. and approximately 700° C. During the annealing process, the titanium deposited in areas outside the molybdenum regions (73, 74, 75, 76) interacts with silicon on the substrate to form titanium silicide in a high resistivity C49 crystal phase. The titanium deposited in areas within the molybdenum regions (73, 74, 75, 76) interacts with silicon to form titanium silicide in a low resistivity C54 crystal phase because the presence of molybdenum ions in silicon lowers the energy barrier for crystal phase transformation between the C49 phase and the C54 phase.

    • A field effect transistor with reduced corner device problems comprises source and drain regions formed in a substrate, a channel region between the source and drain regions, isolation regions in the substrate adjacent the source, channel and drain regions; and a gate having a gate dopant over the channel region and separated therefrom by a gate dielectric. The isolation regions define corner regions of the channel along interfaces between the channel and isolation regions. The gate includes regions depleted of the gate dopant and overlapping at least the channel region and the isolation regions, such that voltage thresholds of the channel corner regions beneath depleted portions of the gate conductor layer are increased compared to regions of the channel between the corner regions.The field effect transistor with reduced dopant concentration on the MOSFET gate "corner" has an improved edge voltage tolerance. The structure has improved edge dielectric breakdown and lower MOSFET gate-induced drain leakage (GIDL). This structure is intended for analog applications, mixed voltage tolerant circuits and electrostatic (ESD) networks.
