There's a difference in staying at a hotel and actually living in Paradise. This bed and breakfast gives you gorgeous Hawaii as your home. From the warm aloha of the hosts, to the healthy and yummy breakfast choices, I highly recommend this special place. The view is breathtaking and for just a little while, Paradise is yours.

I stayed Aloha B&B for 3nights in June, 2014, and the days there made me literally feel at home and relaxed. Don and Phylllis were extremely kind and always cheerful, and offered a helping hand whenever they found it good for me, while keeping certain, just right distance; for example, advice about sightseeing, driving me down at times when they went out(since I did not have a car), helping meal cooking… There was a lanai where I could enjoy great view which changes as time goes by in a day, especially star-filled night sky in the calm neighborhood was breathtaking. Also, Having a breakfast there feeling cozy breeze made the very nice start of the day. I stayed queen bed room, and the sight from the window at dawn was also my favorite. Phyllis prepared healthy breakfast every morning, and I could enjoy as much as I wanted, always with fresh fruits. Room was not that big, but clean and for me, staying alone, just good size and cozy. I strongly recommend Aloha B&B to anybody who do not like or take rest from the hustle and bustle in Waikiki and want to relax feeling warmth and beauty of Hawaii through both human and nature.

I simply cannot say enough good things about Don & Phyllis! We were completely satisfied with our stay in their home during our recent trip to Oahu. When I reserved the room Phyllis had asked for any dietary concerns. I am trying to live gluten and dairy free. This is always so difficult when traveling. There was gluten free bread and cereal for breakfast. Phyllis made the most delicious fruit/oatmeal cereal. They have many local maps and books regarding the area. They knew what activities were going on in the area while we were in town. We will definitely stay at this B&B if the opportunity arises in the future.

I keep looking for words other than wonderful to describe my stay here in Hawaii Kai with Don and Phyllis.On every level from service to food and cleanliness this stay exceeded my expectations. Don and Phyllis' experience, generosity and warmth set me up to take in the rest of the island flow. Their view was an ever- present and uplifting part of the experience - as much a part of the trip as anything else. Quiet. Simple. Serene.Private. Away from the hustle and frenetic. The hillside view is tucked away and a car is needed. Don and Phyllis have good recommendations for that and anything else "island" you might need. A great first stay. A comfortable home base for recharging after day out. I considered myself quite lucky for this find, would love to visit again, and recommend them with enthusiasm. Many Thanks, Don and Phyllis!

Thought it might be nice to stay in a B&B for the first few nights on Oahu, before traveling to some of the other islands, so that we could get acquainted with folks that live and experience Hawaii everyday. This idea worked well for us and we had a wonderful visit here!

If you plan to rent a car for your visit to Oahu, the Aloha B&B will be good fit. The drive from Honolulu airport is about 30 min to the east. The friendly host and hostess, Don and Phyllis Young, have three guest rooms in their beautiful hillside home with great views of the marina, Koko Head, Koko Crater, and Maunaula Bay. We decided to stay at the Aloha B&B in order to avoid the crowded, impersonal and expensive lodging at Waikiki. We also wanted to see the Honolulu sights as well as other areas of Oahu. Other guests during our stay were from Poland and Japan and were delightful to meet over a good, healthy breakfast of coffee, island fruits, yogurt, wholegrain cereals and breads. Also for dinner we enjoyed restaurants at the marina shopping center just down the hill. All in all we really enjoyed our stay at the Aloha B&B and the helpfulness that the Youngs offered for our Oahu visit.

Was delighted to find this B&B in Honolulu. I agree with all the nice things previous reviewers have said! Don and Phyllis are exceptionally warm, welcoming and helpful hosts. My room was clean and comfy with a fabulous view. Every morning there were nice breakfast fixings laid out, fresh fruit and granola and fresh baked goods and fresh coffee. The Honolulu weather being so amazing I always took my breakfast sitting out on the deck for more of that extraordinary view across the bay. They have a great collection of Hawaii guide books and were excellent information resources themselves. Was a great base for touring Honolulu, and a terrific deal. Would stay there again

Aloha Bed and Breakfast was the perfect place for our family to stay. This B&B is located in Hawaii Kai, a quiet community on the outskirts of Honolulu--away from the noise and traffic of the city but still having nice shopping, restaurants, beaches, hiking, etc. Don and Phyllis' home is comfortable and pleasantly arranged for relaxation--inside and outside. They have beautiful views out of all windows and from the deck and the pool. Their home and grounds are kept very clean, and great care is taken to make sure every area is a spot of beauty. Our breakfasts included whole grain breads, cereals, local fruits, yogurt, orange juice, great coffee, and other varied healthy choices. I took home some great recipes:) Don and Phyllis were very accommodating to meet our needs and make our stay a memorable one. We would happily choose to stay with them again on future visits to Hawaii!

I slept in the queen bedroom and was very pleased with the firmness of the bed and the size and quality of the room, which is down two short stair flights so I got a lot of exercise daily. Breakfast was a delightful array of fruits, yogurt and a homemade muffin, juice and coffee. We had pleasant conversations and my coming and going at early hours was never a problem. I ate breakfast on the lanai under the early morning stars and sometimes kept off-site dinner leftovers in the refrigerator for the following day. The Young's residence is nicely situated. I never felt I was a bother to them as they went about their daily routines. I was free to come and go as I pleased, which I did. This is not the place for you if you want to be catered to.

Don & Phyllis were great hosts during my 3 night stay at their B&B. Upon arrival Phyllis showed me around and gave me great sightseeing tips in the area. They both had lots of recommendations on what to do and see, providing maps and coupons for all kinds of activities around the island. The neighborhood is quiet and has great views. I felt very welcomed and started my days off at around 11am to venture around the island. Breakfast was delicious and the fresh fruit was a great plus. I would definitely recommend staying there. The location is convenient, the rooms are clean and comfortable and Phyllis and Don are the sweetest blessing for a person traveling alone to feel welcomed. Aloha! :)

Monastic Institute
Monasticism: Soul of the New Evangelization
June 28 - July 2, 2015
For many, the New Evangelization is synonymous with deepening faith believing in the Gospel, and going forth to proclaim the Gospel. Does the monastic life, then, rooted in contemplation and Christian traditions hundreds of years old, have anything to offer this movement? The 30th Annual Monastic Institute will explore this question and answer it with an ecstatic affirmative: monasticism as the very soul of the New Evangelization. The prophetic witness of monastic lives, fashioned in a radically simple and stable pursuit of holiness, offers a vibrant counter-testimony to the increasingly fast and shifting culture of our times.

Recipe by Nancy Carole
"My mother, Marea Mooney, made this soup for her six children. It is a warm and filling mixture of potatoes, green beans, and frankfurters that's easy to make and perfect for a cold winter day. Adjust ingredients to taste. We all love it; hope you do, too! Serve with salad and warm rolls."

onion, chopped
2 tablespoons

1 (8 ounce) can
tomato sauce
1 (14.5 ounce) can
chicken broth
1 (9 ounce) package
frozen green beans
1 (16 ounce) package
beef frankfurters, cut into bite size pieces
To me this did not sound like a very good meal my husband thought, how weird hot dog soup, said he would not like it, however I was really surprised at how good this soup did turn out and my husband loved it too!! It was very easy to prepare, I would highly recommend this recipe.
While the end result was good, adjustment was needed along the way. 1) The main problem was that this was exceedingly bland; I alleviated this by adding bay leaves and pepper. 2) A 14.5 oz. can of chicken broth would have been too much; an 11 1/2 oz. can worked just fine. 3) Green beans are not the right vegetable for this soup, so I used mixed vegetables. 9 oz. was not enough; I used 16 oz. I'll make this again because it was simple and the kids ate it, but with the above changes.

Wow, what a good idea! It was great. I replaced the beans with a can of peas though and also a can of corn. we all loved it. It was more of a stoup, and very filling in these hard times.
I was a bit skeptical to try this out, but I had all the ingredients on hand, so I gave it a whirl. I also added garlic powder, a bit of oregano, and a dash of basil. Low and behold, this was pretty darn tasty! I especially love the soup base, yum. But I think green beans were the wrong veggie choice for this soup, and I love green beans. Thanks for the recipe, Nancy!
Great starter recipe! I made the following changes: I used my standard soup base/starter (onion and celery sauteed on EVOO with a pinch each of rosemary, thyme, marjoram and a bay leaf, add two chicken bouillon cubes, crushed, one 14.5 oz can of diced tomatoes and two cups boiling water) then added three cups Schwan's mini bow tie pasta and vegetable blend and 1/2 package turkey hot dogs, sliced. My kids absolutely love it and I love that I can satisfy their never ending demand for hot dogs with something balanced and healthy. Thanks! :-)
This Is Super Easy, And Totally Awesome..Well Make Again!
this is very quick and easy! when time is not on your side, use this recipe. kids will eat it up!
I loved it! Interesting mix of ingrediants. Tastes even better when heated up the next day!

International Dimensions of Optimal Monetary Policy
|April 2001Number 124
|JEL classification: E31, E52, F42
Authors: Giancarlo Corsetti and Paolo Pesenti
This paper provides a baseline general-equilibrium model of optimal monetary policy among interdependent economies with monopolistic firms that set prices one period in advance. Strict adherence to inward-looking policy objectives such as the stabilization of domestic output cannot be optimal when firms' markups are exposed to currency fluctuations. Such policies induce excessive volatility in exchange rates and foreign sales revenue, leading exporters to set higher prices in response to higher profit risk. In general, optimal rules trade off a larger domestic output gap against lower import prices. Monetary rules in a world Nash equilibrium lead to less exchange rate volatility relative to both inward-looking rules and discretionary policies, even when the latter do not suffer from any inflationary (or deflationary) bias. Gains from international monetary cooperation are related in an nonmonotonic way to the degree of exchange rate pass-through.

Walking through the Port Phillip's past
Posted by Matt Wilson
23. Jan, 2012
If there is any place in Melbourne that can boast the most interesting history, Port Phillip is a sure contender. With so much having happened in Port Phillip since Melbourne was founded, there is a lot to learn about the area. Fortunately, the Guided Walks in Port Phillip program lets you get out and see these places for yourself rather than having to read dull history books. Each walk is lead by an expert who really knows their stuff.
The Portrayals of Port walk explores the places that inspired writers and artists in their own creative depictions of Port Melbourne; Bushrangers to Biopolis goes along St Kilda Road, looking at former cattle routes and bushranger tracks that are now filled with mansions and parks. The Demon Drink investigates the former hotels and pubs that gave the area its seedy reputation, and were eventually torn down after campaigns by the church and women's groups.
There are walks that are dedicated to discussing the lifestyles of former Port Phillip residents. The Poetic Streets of Elwood walks shows the art deco streets named after famous poets, while Unsolved Cases of St Kilda goes through St Kilda's backstreets in a game where you have to unravel unsolved bayside crimes.
Towards Port Melbourne and Docklands Wrecks, Whacks and Wrongs talks about the area's shipping history, ship wrecks and buildings that are no longer there; Canvas Town To Kingsway discusses how the area was a former tent city during the gold rush and Montague – The Lost Community goes through an industrial area that was once a working class village, now long gone.
To top all that exciting history off, all of these walks are absolutely free! Up to three walks can be booked at one time, with bookings closing at 4pm on the Friday prior to the walk. Make sure you wear appropriate walking clothes and shoes, otherwise you will be drenched in sweat and your feet will become blister heaven after all the exploring.

I'm looking for someone to share life's...
I'm looking for someone to share life's greatest moments! I have two daughters (11 and 9) and they are my greatest accomplishment to date. I have a great job and I've been there for almost 18 years. I love what I do and, luckily for me, it pays the bills. What am I looking for? I'm looking for someone who is kind, gentle and loves to laugh. I love joking around and my biggest laughs are usually at my expense. I want someone who isn't afraid to make decisions, who is secure and who is looking for a relationship. I don't need someone to take care of me. I'm independent and I have great family and friends. I'm just at a point in my life where I'm ready to start a new relationship. I want somone to hug...the kind of hug that makes you feel safe, secure, loved and that makes even the biggest problems seem minor. Things I like to do? I like trying new restuarants, weekend getaways, movies, carribean vacations. I'm a girl who likes sports...going to games or watching from the couch is fun! Phillies are my favorite followed by Eagles, Flyers and even Sixers. I even joined a fantasy football league this year and survived my first draft without making a fool of myself!!

Favorite thing:
Waikiki is by far a very interesting "people" watching place. I love to walk down Waikiki at night and see all the tourists begin to unwind after day long activities. The lit tiki torches really add to the "tropical" mood set, as you see literally hundreds of people decked in aloha attire, leis and shopping bags.
Fondest memory: I love to sit at the beach and watch the free hula show, and sunset.

This application is a division of U.S. application Ser. No. 10/700,869, filed Nov. 4, 2003, now U.S. Pat. No. 7,301,206 entitled "Semiconductor-on-Insulator SRAM Configured Using Partially-Depleted and Fully-Depleted Transistors" which application is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
The following U.S. patents and/or commonly assigned patent applications are hereby incorporated herein by reference:
The present invention relates generally to semiconductor devices and, more particularly, the preferred embodiment relates to a semiconductor-on-insulator SRAM configured using partially-depleted and fully-depleted transistors.
The desire for higher performance circuits has driven the development of high-speed sub-100 nanometer (nm) silicon-on-insulator (SOI) complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology. In SOI technology, metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) are formed on a thin layer of silicon overlying a layer of insulating material such as silicon oxide. Devices formed on SOI offer many advantages over their bulk counterparts, including reduced junction capacitance, absence of reverse body effect, soft-error immunity, full dielectric isolation, and absence of latch-up. SOI technology therefore enables higher speed performance, higher packing density, and reduced power consumption.
The most commonly used and most manufacturable SOI technology is partially-depleted SOI (PD-SOI) technology where transistors fabricated have a partially-depleted body region, that is, a PD-SOI transistor is one in which the body thickness is thicker than the maximum depletion layer width Wd,max, so that a region of the body is undepleted. The undepleted body of the PD-SOI transistor is not tied to any voltage and is commonly described as being a floating body region.
Although PD-SOI transistors have the merit of being highly manufacturable, significant design burden is faced by its users because of floating body effects. In PD-SOI transistors, charge carriers generated by impact ionization near the drain/source region accumulate near the source/drain region of the transistor. When sufficient carriers accumulate in the floating body, which is formed right below the channel region, the body potential is effectively altered.
Floating body effects occur in PD-SOI devices because of charge build-up in the floating body region. This results in kinks in the device current-voltage (I-V) curves, thereby degrading the electrical performance of the circuit. In general, the body potential of a PD-SOI device may vary during static, dynamic, or transient device operation, and is a function of many factors like temperature, voltage, circuit topology, and switching history. Due to the fact that the body potential of the PD-SOI transistor depends on switching history, the device characteristics therefore depend on switching history, giving rise to a phenomenon known as history effect. Therefore, circuit design using PD-SOI transistors is not straightforward, and there is a significant barrier for the adoption of PD-SOI technology or the migration from bulk-Si design to PD-SOI design.
The preferred embodiment of the present invention relates generally to the fabrication of semiconductor devices. More particularly, the preferred embodiment of the present invention relates to semiconductor-on-insulator static random-access memory (SRAM) cells incorporating partially-depleted, fully-depleted transistors.
In a first embodiment, a static memory element includes a first inverter having an input coupled to a left bit node and an output coupled to a right bit node. A second inverter has an input coupled to the right bit node and an output coupled to the left right bit node. A first fully depleted semiconductor-on-insulator transistor has a drain coupled to the left bit node, and a second fully depleted semiconductor-on-insulator transistor has a drain coupled to the right bit node.
As an example, one embodiment includes a memory array formed from a plurality of SRAM cells arranged in an n by m matrix. The array includes a number of complementary bit line pairs, each including a left bit line and a right bit line. Crossing the bit line pairs is a number of word lines. An SRAM cell is located at the intersection of each word line and bit line pair. Each SRAM cell includes first and second inverters including a p-channel semiconductor-on-insulator pull-up transistor and an n-channel semiconductor-on-insulator pull-down transistor. Each cell also includes a first and second fully depleted semiconductor-on-insulator transistor that serve as access transistors.
In a more specific embodiment, a CMOS SRAM cell includes a pair of p-channel fully depleted transistors (P-FDFETs), each having a common source coupled to a voltage potential and a gate coupled to a drain of the other P-FDFET. A pair of n-channel partially depleted transistors (N-PDFETs) each have a drain connected to the drain of the respective P-FDFET of the pair of P-FDFETs, a common source connected to ground, and a gate connected to the drain of an opposite P-FDFET of the pair of P-FDFETs. A pair of n-channel pass-gate transistors each has the drain respectively connected to a connection linking the respective drain of the N-PDFET of the pair of N-PDFETs to the drain of the P-FDFET of the pair of P-FDFETs. A complementary bit line is coupled to the source of the n-channel pass-gate transistor of the pair of n-channel pass-gate transistors. A word line is coupled to the gates of the n-channel pass-gate transistors.
Aspects of the present invention also provide a method of forming an SRAM cell. A silicon-on-insulator substrate includes a silicon layer overlying an insulator layer, e.g., an oxide. At least one active region is defined in the silicon layer. A gate dielectric layer is formed over the active region and a number of gate electrodes are formed overlying the gate dielectric layer. Source and drain regions are formed adjacent to the plurality of gate electrodes to form a fully depleted transistor and a partially depleted transistor.
Advantages of the preferred embodiment of this invention include providing a structure and method for the integration of fully-depleted and partially-depleted SOI transistors, as well as multiple-gate transistors. Aspects of this invention describes an SRAM cell structure that employs both FD-SOI and PD-SOI transistors; improved performance of SOI SRAM cell configured using FD-SOI and PD-SOI transistors; use of FD-SOI transistors as pass-gate transistors or access transistors eliminate problems associated with the transient bipolar effect; and use of FD-SOI transistors as pull-up transistors to eliminate problems associated with history effect.
For a more complete understanding of the present invention, and the advantages thereof, reference is now made to the following descriptions taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawing, in which:
The making and using of the presently preferred embodiments are discussed in detail below. It should be appreciated, however, that the present invention provides many applicable inventive concepts that can be embodied in a wide variety of specific contexts. The specific embodiments discussed are merely illustrative of specific ways to make and use the invention, and do not limit the scope of the invention.
The present invention is related to U.S. Pat. No. 6,855,990 B2 entitled "Strained-Channel Multiple-Gate Transistor", which issued Feb. 15, 2005, U.S. Pat. No. 6,720,619 B1 entitled "Semiconductor-on-Insulator Chip Incorporating Partially-Depleted, Fully-Depleted, and Multiple-Gate Devices", which issued Apr. 13, 2004, and U.S. Pat. No. 6,867,433 B2 entitled "Semiconductor-on-Insulator Chip Incorporating Strained-Channel Partially-Depleted, Fully-Depleted, and Multiple-Gate Transistors," which issued Mar. 15, 2005. Each of these applications are incorporated herein by reference. Aspects of the present invention build upon and provide improvements and applications of previous inventions described in the incorporated applications.
In one aspect, the present invention relates to static random access memory (SRAM). SRAM is commonly used in data processors for the storage of instructions and data. SRAM is generally used in data processors requiring optimally fast access rates. Recent SRAM designs have exploited the advantages of PD-SOI technology. By making SRAM on SOI substrates, performance enhancement of up to 20-30% may be achieved compared to SRAM made on bulk silicon (Si) substrates.
The left bit line (BL) 114, the right bit line (BR) 116, the ground line (GND) 118 and supply node (VDD) 122 are also shown. The left bit line 114 carries a signal that is complementary to the signal carried on right bit line 116. As a result, the complementary bit line pair 114 and 116 (or 116 and 114) is sometimes referred to as bit line and bit line bar. A word line (WL) 120 is coupled to the gates of the pass transistors 110 and 112 so that a logic value stored in the memory cell 100 can be placed on the bit lines 114 and 116 or vice versa.
A typical SRAM array includes a matrix of m rows and n columns of the aforementioned SRAM cells 100 as shown in
In a prior art SRAM cell configured using PD-SOI transistors, all the transistors in the cell are partially depleted SOI transistors. SRAM cells configured using PD-SOI transistors, however, suffer from problems related to the floating body effect. A floating body region may be charged up when the source and drain of a transistor are biased at the supply voltage.
For example, referring to
In certain dynamic circuits, the parasitic bipolar effect causes logic state errors if not properly accounted for. In an SRAM array, the parasitic bipolar leakage current contributed by the pass-gate transistors 110 or 112 causes the SRAM array to be up to 20% slower than if the leakage current was non-existent. This is known as the transient bipolar effect and has been reported by Kuang et al. in IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits, vol. 32, no. 6, pages 837-844, June 1997, which paper is incorporated herein by reference.
In one aspect, the present invention provides a method and system to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, and to provide a highly manufacturable PD-SOI-like technology that produces FD-SOI type devices to eliminate floating body effects, e.g. history effect. A silicon-on-insulator technology has been successfully developed that integrates PD-SOI and FD-SOI transistors on the same chip. In this patent, the abovementioned SOI technology can be used to form a static random access memory (SRAM) cell that employs both PD-SOI and FD-SOI transistors.
A first embodiment of this invention provides an SRAM cell with both PD-SOI and FD-SOI transistors. Another embodiment of this invention teaches a method of forming such an SRAM cell. By incorporating FD-SOI transistors in critical parts of the SRAM cell that is susceptible to undesirable floating body effects, performance of an SRAM array may be significantly improved. In addition, a structure and method of forming an SRAM cell with FD-SOI and PD-SOI transistors with enhanced performance is provided.
The preferred embodiment of this invention employs an SOI technology that incorporates PD-SOI and FD-SOI transistors in the same manufacturing process, i.e., PD-SOI transistors and FD-SOI transistors may be formed on the same semiconductor substrate and these transistors may be formed in close proximity to each other. Therefore, by using the SOI technology of this invention, a SRAM cell may be designed such that both PD-SOI and FD-SOI transistors may be used. Embodiments of this invention may also employ the option of introducing strain in the channel of these SOI transistors to enhance the performance of the SRAM cell.
The schematic of an SRAM cell according to one embodiment of this invention is depicted in
For example, in one embodiment the four transistors 102, 104, 106 and 108 constituting the two cross-couple inverters are formed from partially depleted SOI transistors. As before, the PD-SOI transistors 102 and 106 constitute the first inverter and the PD-SOI transistors 104 and 108 constitute the second inverter. The two pass-gate transistors 110 and 112, sometimes also known as access transistors, are fully depleted SOI transistors. In the preferred embodiment, the transistors 110 and 112 are both n-channel transistors, although they may be p-channel transistors.
By using FD-SOI transistors as pass-gate or access transistors 110 and 112, the problem associated with the bipolar leakage current or the transient bipolar effect can be avoided. Floating body effects are absent in FD-SOI transistors. FD-SOI transistors do not suffer from floating body effects due to the fact that the body is fully depleted, and no portion of the body region is undepleted. An SOI transistor may have a fully depleted body if it has a low body doping and/or a thin body thickness. Additionally, for good control of short channel effects in ultra-scaled devices, the device body thickness may be reduced to less than one third of the gate length. Such a thin body thickness may require raised source/drain technology for series resistance reduction.
According to another embodiment of this invention, the pull-up transistors 102 and 104 are FD-SOI transistors. In this embodiment, the pass-gate transistors 110 and 112 may be PD-SOI transistors but they are preferably FD-SOI transistors. The pull-down transistors 106 and 108 are preferably PD-SOI transistors but could be FD-SOI transistors. When the pull-down transistors 106 and 108 are FD-SOI transistors, the floating-body effects and threshold voltage instability problems associated with these transistors will be eliminated, leading to a larger window and noise margin in the operation of the memory cell. This will be more important if the supply voltage is reduced.
To this point, the SRAM cells have been described in the context of a memory array, i.e., a two-dimensional matrix of rows and columns of memory cells. The concepts, however, would apply equally to other devices. For example, many latches, registers, FIFOs and other devices include cross-coupled inverters such as those shown in
The SRAM cell 100 of
The doping concentration Na may be determined indirectly from the known threshold voltage of the transistor using the equation:
Since threshold voltage Vth of transistor may be known or easily determined, and the value of (ΦM−ΦS) is known if the gate electrode material is known, the Vth equation given above may be solved for Na. Na may be determined from Vth, as described, or determined from other known physical or experimental analysis techniques.
The value of Na may then be used to compute the maximum depletion width. If the computed Wd,max is larger than the thickness of the body region, the transistor is a FD-SOI transistor. If the computed Wd,max is smaller than the thickness of the body region, the transistor is a PD-SOI transistor. This is a first way of determining whether a SOI transistor is a FD-SOI transistor or a PD-SOI transistor.
A second way is similar to the first way, by expressing Wd,max in terms of Vth. Rearranging equation (3):
Since ΦS for an n-channel transistor is (4.61+φb) and ΦS for a p-channel transistor is (4.61−φb), we have:
A third way is to examine the drain current versus drain voltage (IDS−VDS) characteristics of the SOI transistor. If kinks or discontinuities in the slope of the IDS−VDS characteristics exist, the transistor is a PD-SOI transistor. Otherwise, the transistor is a FD-SOI transistor.
In the preferred embodiment, however, the FD-SOI transistors are not formed by modifying the silicon thickness. In the preferred embodiment, the FD-SOI transistors are three-dimensional or FinFET-like FD-SOI transistors, which makes use of a novel device geometry to eliminate floating body effects. In general, planar FD-SOI transistors have widths of more than 50 nm while non-planar fully depleted multiple-gate transistors have widths of less than 50 nm.
Concepts of the formation of both PD-SOI transistors and FD-SOI transistors are more clearly illustrated in
Super-halo doping and light body doping are designed to achieve FD-SOI and PD-SOI devices at different gate lengths, as shown in
The buried insulator 160 is typically an oxide such as silicon dioxide. Other insulators, such as silicon nitride or aluminum oxide, may alternatively be used. In some embodiments, the buried insulator can comprise a stack of layers, e.g., an oxide, nitride, oxide stack.
Transistor device 150 is formed in a semiconductor layer 162 and includes a source region 164 and a drain region 166. A gate 168 overlies a channel 170 and is separated therefrom by gate dielectric 172.
Similarly long-channel transistor 180 includes a source 182, a drain 184, a gate 186, and a gate dielectric 188. The transistor 180 can be formed in the same semiconductor layer 162 as transistor 150 or in a different semiconductor layer e.g., a different island or mesa on the same chips.
One feature is the design of the super-halo doping 190 in
Referring now to
A gate electrode 210 is formed to surround the transistor active region, e.g., the channel region. Accordingly, an intentional recess 212 is formed within the isolation region 208 so that the semiconductor layer 205 includes sidewalls. The gate electrode 210 is adjacent to the top surface as well as the sidewalls of active layer 205. A gate dielectric layer 214 is formed between the gate electrode 210 and the active layer 205.
The source and drain regions of the transistor device 200 are not shown in the illustration of
One feature of the novel transistor geometry is the intentional recess 212 in the isolation region 208, as shown in
The resulting FD-SOI device has a non-planar geometry and is a multiple-gate transistor where the gate electrode 210 surrounds the transistor body 206 on multiple sides: the two sidewalls and the top surface. By having a gate electrode 210 that surrounds the transistor body 205, the multiple-gate transistor allows the encroachment of the gate electric field to the transistor body in the lateral direction, thus enhancing its ability to control short-channel effects.
The preferred embodiment of this invention teaches a unique way of incorporating PD-SOI and FD-SOI transistors on the same chip using the same process technology, with a distribution of FD-SOI and PD-SOI transistors according to transistor dimensions.
Planar PD-SOI and FD-SOI transistors typically have active region width of more than 50 nm, while non-planar multiple-gate fully depleted transistors generally have active region width of less than 50 nm. The results in
The PD-SOI region is smaller for P-channel transistors (
It is clear that the advantages of PD-SOI and FD-SOI can be combined by using transistors with different combinations of W and Lg. For example, when converting a circuit design for bulk technology to a circuit design for SOI technology, critical portions of the circuits may employ FD-SOI devices to achieve minimal floating body effects while the remaining portions of the circuits may employ PD-SOI devices. For example, the critical portions of the circuits may include analog circuits and dynamic circuits.
An example of the layout implementation of an SRAM cell is illustrated in
According to the preferred embodiment of this invention, the width and length of the pass-gate transistors 102 and 104 are selected such that they lie in the FD-SOI or multiple-gate transistor regions (white regions) in
The ratio of the conductance of pull-down transistor 106 (108) over the conductance of pass-transistor 110 (112) can be used as a basic metric to measure the stability of the SRAM cell or the ability of the cell to retain its data state. This ratio is referred to by CMOS SRAM designers as 'beta' or 'beta ratio'. It is defined as the ratio of the conductance of the pull-down device over the conductance of pass-gate device. The larger the beta ratio, the cell becomes more stable, and its static noise margin (SNM) increases. The conductance of a transistor is approximately proportional to the effective carrier mobility μeff and the ratio of the device width to the channel length, i.e., W/L. Accordingly, the beta of the SRAM cell can be approximated by the ratio of μeff(W/L) of transistor 106 and μeff(W/L) of transistor 110. If transistors 106 and 110 have the same channel length, then the beta ratio becomes the ratio of the channel width of transistor 106 over the channel width of transistor 110. Depending on the SRAM application, the beta preferably ranges from about 1.8 to about 3.
An SRAM cell of the present invention may additionally employ transistors with strained channel regions. For example, the transistors constituting the SRAM cell of
The incorporation of strain in the channel region of PD-SOI and FD-SOI transistors on the same chip is described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,867,433 B2 entitled "Semiconductor-on-Insulator Chip Incorporating Strained-Channel Partially-Depleted, Fully-Depleted, and Multiple-Gate Transistors," which issued Mar. 15, 2005, and incorporated herein by reference. In this approach, a high stress film is formed over a completed transistor structure. The stressor, i.e. the high stress film, exerts significant influence on the channel, modifying the silicon lattice spacing in the channel region, and thus introducing strain in the channel region.
A method of fabricating the above-mentioned SRAM cell with partially depleted SOI transistors and fully depleted SOI transistors or multiple-gate transistors will be described next with respect to
The insulator layer 254 may be any insulating material such as silicon oxide, aluminum oxide, or silicon nitride. In the preferred embodiment, insulating material 254 is silicon oxide, preferably SiO2. This layer may be deposited on substrate 256 prior to forming semiconductor layer 252. Alternatively, a SIMOX process can be used to implant oxygen into a substrate that initially includes both layers 252 and 256. The underlying substrate 256 may be any semiconductor substrate such as silicon substrate or gallium arsenide substrate. In other embodiments, other substrates such as ceramic or quartz can be used.
In the preferred embodiment, the semiconductor layer 252 is silicon and the insulator 254 is silicon oxide. More preferably, the silicon layer 252 in the preferred embodiment has a thickness in the range of about 10 angstroms to about 2000 angstroms and the silicon oxide layer has a thickness in the range of about 100 to about 2000 angstroms.

The gate dielectric may comprise a gate dielectric material such as silicon oxide, silicon oxynitride, or nitrided silicon oxide or combinations thereof. The insulating material may also be a high permittivity material with permittivity larger than 5, such as aluminum oxide (Al2O3), hafnium oxide (HfO2), hafnium silicon oxynitride (HfSiON), hafnium silicate (HfSiO4), zirconium oxide (ZrO2), zirconium silicate (ZrSiO4), lanthanum oxide (La2O3).
In the preferred embodiment, the gate dielectric 262 is silicon oxide, which may be formed by thermal oxidation in an oxygen ambient at temperatures ranging from about 500 to about 1000 degrees Celsius. The gate dielectric layer 262 can alternatively be formed by chemical vapor deposition or reactive sputtering. The gate dielectric layer 262 covers the top and the sidewalls of the silicon fin 258.
With the gate dielectric layer 262 appropriately formed, gate electrode material 264 can then be formed on top of the gate dielectric layer 262. The gate electrode material 264 can be formed from poly-crystalline silicon, poly-crystalline silicon germanium, metals, metallic silicides, metallic nitrides, or metallic oxides. For example, metals such as molybdenum, tungsten, titanium, tantalum, platinum, and hafnium may be used as the portion of the gate electrode 264. Metallic silicides may include, but will not be limited to, nickel silicide, cobalt silicide, tungsten silicide, titanium silicide, tantalum silicide, platinum silicide, and erbium silicide. Metallic nitrides may include, but will not be limited to, molybdenum nitride, tungsten nitride, titanium nitride, and tantalum nitride. Metallic oxides may include, but will not be limited to, ruthenium oxide and indium tin oxide.
The gate electrode material 264 can be deposited by conventional techniques such as chemical vapor deposition. For example, the gate electrode can be formed by the deposition of silicon and a refractory metal, followed by an anneal to form a metal silicide gate electrode material. In embodiments, the refractory metal can be titanium, tantalum, cobalt, or nickel.
The gate electrode material 264 is then patterned using photolithography techniques, and etched using plasma etch processes to form the gate electrodes.
Additional process steps will now be described with respect to
The source 266 and drain 268 extensions (e.g., lightly doped source/drain) are then implanted using ion implantation techniques. Super-halo implant may also be performed at this stage. By using implanting the super-halo implant at a large angle ranging from 15 to 45 degrees with respect to the normal of the wafer, devices with short channel lengths will receive a high effective channel doping concentration, while devices with long channel lengths will receive a low effective channel doping concentration.
A spacer 270 is formed using techniques known and used in the art, e.g. deposition of the spacer material and anisotropic plasma etching. The spacer material may comprise of a dielectric material such as silicon nitride or silicon dioxide. In the preferred embodiment, the spacer 270 is silicon nitride.
Following spacer formation, the source and drain regions 266 and 268 are implanted. The source and drain regions can be strapped with one or more conductive materials such as metals and silicides (not shown). The conductive materials can reach the source and drain regions through contacts on the sidewalls and/or the top of the active region.
Next, a high-stress film or a stressor 272 is deposited over the completed transistor structure as shown in
Following the formation of the high-stress film 272, a passivation layer (not shown) is deposited with a thickness of a few thousand angstroms, e.g. 1000 to 5000 angstroms. The passivation layer is preferably comprised of silicon oxide. Contact holes (not shown) are etched through the passivation layer and the high-stress film 272. Conductive materials (not shown) are then used to fill the contact holes to electrically contact the source region 266, drain region 268, and gate electrode 264 of the transistor.

Check out more movie stills from Mischa's latest film Deserted. The film wrapped a few days ago, and as you'll see from some of the pics, the locations were stunning.
Also visit the blog of director Ashley Avis and Alchemy Pictures to see the non-Mischa related pics.
Check out the trailer for Mischa's upcoming action/thriller Operator. The movie also stars Ving Rhames, Luke Goss and Michael Pare.
Operator Trailer from Status Media & Entertainment on Vimeo.
Operator was recently picked up by Cinema Management Group for all international distribution sales.
You can also click the Vimeo page to watch the new cut trailers for Mischa's other two upcoming Status Media movies 24 Hours and Checkmate.
With production on Deserted underway, director Ashley Avis has kindly taken to her website to share some pics from the set. Photos are by set photographer Marcelo Araujo.
Gallery link:
Along with the photos, Ashley has also written a set blog which will give you some insight into the movie. Here is an excerpt, but make sure to visit the website for the full blog.
It's our first off day, and we are now through four of seventeen shooting days. Sprits are so high. Every part of this cast and crew is outstanding. The performances are … magnificent. Every person is 'bringing it' and Mischa Barton – our lead – who has quite a bit of complex backstory (our film starts when she is released from prison, having been incarcerated for killing her mother in defense of her father at 18) – is transformational.
It's amazing to work with a group of people (cast) who so deeply invest in characters. To see a script that I've written … and re-written … and re-written again over the past three years finally come to life is surreal. To have actors like Mischa, Winter, Jackson, Dana, Mykie, Trent, Jasmine and Tyler … and supporting cast…
The cast includes Mischa Barton (Jae), Jackson Davis (Robin), Winter Ave Zoli (Rosemary), Trent Ford (Troy), Dana Rosendorff (Heather), Michael Milford (Dax), Kelly Brennigan (Jasmine), and Tyler Sellers (Wade).
Supporting cast includes Jake Busey (Clay), Sebastian Bach (Archer), Gerry Bednob (Lizard), Heidi James (Calico), and Lance Henriksen (Hopper).
Visit Alchemy Pictures for more.
Hooray! We have some news.
Mischa is currently on set filming a movie called Deserted. It is another indie project, but the person behind it is a 27 year old female writer/director called Ashley Avis, which I think is really cool.
Here is brief synopsis:
When twenty-four-year-old Jae is released from prison for killing her mother, she returns to her childhood home in small-town Ridgecrest.
The desire to go anywhere but there prompts her to agree to join her brother on a road trip out to Death Valley … which results in getting them hopelessly lost in the most stunning, but unforgiving topographical terrain on the planet.
It appears that the movie is due to wrap on January 25th.
Here are a few pics from the set, shared by director Ashley Avis and Mischa herself on Instagram.
As I mentioned in the previous update and as I'm sure you're all aware, things have been pretty quiet on the Mischa front lately. There haven't been any major news releases or appearances, so in lieu of having several dedicated posts, I'll give you a quick rundown of some of the smaller headlines from the last few weeks. Most of this will be film related as that's really all the news that I've seen.
– Bhopal: A Prayer for Rain opened in the United States in limited release and is currently due for home release on February 3rd, 2015. This movie took many years to get released, and after the incredibly long wait, it seems that Mischa only has fleeting screen time. So that's a bit disappointing. The subject matter is still significant so it should be a good project to check out anyway. The reviews of the film have been generally positive.
– Release dates for Throwdown and Mining for Ruby were mentioned on the site previously. Both these titles have since been released on DVD and VOD. I think by now you all know how much I appreciate Mischa's work, but unfortunately, both these tiles are really flat. It is my recommendation that you only watch these if you happen to find them at a really good price. Thankfully, Mischa only has very limited screen time, but these two titles join a growing list of some very disappointing releases.
– The next movie due for home release is Zombie Killers: Elephant's Graveyard. I've not seen this yet, but once again, it appears that Mischa's screen time is limited. The movie has a relatively solid cast and the premise should attract the zombie fans out there. This title is currently slated for DVD release on February 3rd, 2015, the same day as Bhopal.
– Other titles due for release in 2015 are 24 Hours, Checkmate, Operator, American Beach House, Hope Lost, L.A. Slasher and The Hoarder. I've not seen confirmation of release dates for any of these titles, but I would expect most of them to also be DVD or VOD only. L.A. Slasher, The Hoarder and Hope Lost appear to have the best chance of a wider release.
– I did leave out one title from the above list, and that is a small movie called Starcrossed. It had a very limited production budget, but everyone involved with the project appears to be very connected to it. So I feel like this is the one project to really look out for. One thing that can make any movie way more impressive than having a large budget is heart. Again, I haven't seen specific release details for this, but I'm assuming 2015 is the goal.
– A couple of other tidbits… IMDb has recently updated Mischa's management information. I'm not sure how accurate that is, but if Mischa has indeed changed management, we may see a different approach to roles moving forward.
– One other small thing that may or may not mean anything is that Mischa and Julie Plec recently started following each other on Instagram. Julie Plec is the series developer/creator of The Vampire Diaries, The Tomorrow People and The Originals. Plus she has worked on Kyle XY and the Scream movies. As I said, this may not mean anything at all, maybe they just know each other somehow. But in a perfect world, I would love if this meant that Mischa and Julie are looking to work with each other on an upcoming project. Or even an existing one.
– Finally, we move onto current news, which is a new project called Deserted… check above for details.
I think I've covered everything, but let me know in the comments if I missed a project or any other significant piece of news.
Here is the trailer for Mischa's upcoming feature Hope Lost. This is the movie that Mischa shot in Italy earlier in the year.
The subject matter is quite dark and there is some disturbing imagery, so just a warning to some of the younger fans out there.
HOPE LOST-HD from Ambi Distribution on Vimeo.
In other news, I know it has been a while between updates, just things have been very quiet on the Mischa front. I will do a wrap-up post for all the small bits and pieces of news that have come out over the last couple of months in the very near future. Hope you all have a Merry Christmas!
Check out the November 2014 cover photo of Mischa from her shoot for Professional Hairdresser magazine in conjunction with Inanch London. Mischa has been a client of the Inanch salon for years, and this shoot is a stunning representation of their new Gold Class Hair extensions range.
Visit the Professional Hairdresser magazine website for a behind the scenes look.
And if you think the cover is stunning, wait until you see the whole shoot. I've posted a few teasers on Twitter over the last month or so, and I can't wait until I can post the whole thing.
Here is the video of Mischa's stunning and inspiring speech at the Millennium Campus Conference where she also received the 2014 Global Generation Award. Mischa gave a really thoughtful and heartfelt speech about how filming Bhopal: A Prayer for Rain in India shaped her understanding of the importance of education for women.
It is a real shame that the media never grabs onto these things to create worthwhile headlines. Instead, we are consistently stuck with superficial nonsense.

But my halibut sandwich far outshines that one."

My friends would describe me as a great...
My friends would describe me as a great listener, caring, dependable, easy going, and giving. I am ever the optimist, tend to look for, and see, the good in people/things vs. the bad, and you'll probably always see me with a smile on my face. People tend to feel comfortable talking to me and opening up, as they know I don't judge, but accept them for who they are. Complete openness and honesty are a must. Free time? Wine and wine tasting are passions of mine. I'm not anywhere close to pretentious, I just love wine and find everything about it fascinating. So if you don't like wine, that is totally okay too! But I'll work on converting you slowly :) Beaches, water, and mountains I find joy and peace in. Kayaking, stand up paddleboarding....bbqs, camping (although it's kinda nice to stay in nice hotels, right?).....I like to explore, see new things, have new experiences. Generally, I'm kick back and easy going. I grew up playing baseball, soccer, volleyball.....lots of competitive games with my brother playing tennis, ping pong....any game! I play golf and softball......I like to be active, and get out and DO.....but don't get me wrong, I love to hang out and just relax as well. I love music of all kinds, but I'm a huge Dave Matthews and Zac Brown fan. And just about any live music is fun! Sorry, no polka though. I'm a big believer in chemistry and spark between two people. We might have a ton in common, but without that chemistry, it's just not complete. I'm an affectionate person: hugs, hand holding, snuggling on the couch watching a movie, a kiss in public isn't scary, right? :)…you get the idea. While I do believe having things in common is important, I don't think that people have to have EVERYTHING in common. A little difference keeps things interesting, and challenges each other to explore new things…..new activities, new foods, new places to go….all good! So, if you like what you see and what you read, just send me a message and we'll go from there!

Issues highlighted in the briefing book: Iraq Diplomacy Intelligence Troop realignment Afghanistan North Korea Israel Cuba Patriot Act Homeland Security
The Cleveland Plain Dealer on must-see TV: LINK
"Three Westlake High students have a plum assignment when the vice presidential de bate is held at Case Western Reserve University next week. Steve Aurora, Kim Kopcak and Doug Bullard will create documentaries of the debate, to be aired in a one-hour program sometime this fall."
"Each student will produce a 10- to 15-minute piece, while being trailed by a crew from C-SPAN. They will work alongside members of C-SPAN's crew and the dozens of other reporters in town for the event."
"The students already have plenty of hands-on experience at the high school's WHBS-TV. Aurora is the station's president."
"C-SPAN contacted the local Adelphia Cable office seeking high-school students for the project, according to a news release, and Westlake's television program was 'immediately suggested.' C-SPAN wants to show viewers the vice presidential debate from a student's point of view."
The politics of national security:
This truly is the politics of national security!!!
The New York Times ' Douglas Jehl and David Sanger found that the National Intelligence Council "warned the Bush administration about the potential costly consequences of an American-led invasion two months before the war began, government officials said Monday." LINK
They are not nearly as descriptive as Bob Novak in describing just how they obtained the information — "The contents of the two assessments had not been previously disclosed. They were described by the officials after two weeks in which the White House had tried to minimize the council's latest report, which was prepared this summer and read by senior officials early this month."
(The Times men DO say that the leakers are NOT connected to the presidential campaigns . . .)
More, from the article: "The assessments, meant to address the regional implications and internal challenges that Iraq would face after Mr. Hussein's ouster, said it was unlikely that Iraq would split apart after an American invasion, the officials said. But they said there was a significant chance that domestic groups would engage in violent internal conflict with one another unless an occupying force prevented them from doing so."
"The officials outlined the reports after the columnist Robert Novak, in a column published Monday in The Washington Post , wrote that a senior intelligence official had said at a West Coast gathering last week that the White House had disregarded warnings from intelligence agencies that a war in Iraq would intensify anti-American hostility in the Muslim world. Mr. Novak identified the official as Paul R. Pillar, the national intelligence officer for the Near East and South Asia, and criticized him for making remarks that Mr. Novak said were critical of the administration."
The investigation into the disclosure of the name of CIA agent "seems to have been both exhaustive and inconclusive," writes the New York Times Adam Liptak. LINK
But Mr. Liptak has great detail, so read the whole thing.
The New York Times ' Philip Shenon and Carl Hulse report a bill to enact many of the 9/11 Commission's "central recommendations faced an uncertain fate on Monday as the Senate opened a floor debate and moved toward a final vote, possibly this week." LINK

I've embedded a LinkedIn Apply Now button on my page. But there are several things that confuse me. First of all, when I right click the widget, I cannot "save as" the image. Guess because it's not an image! How is such a button created?
Secondly, when I right click the page and view source, all I see is the code I have written. I thought the
in.js that is included would append DOM elements to the document in order to make that button visible. (e.g
headElement.appendChild(document.createElement('img')) or something like that. How come? If nothing is embedded into the DOM tree, how is that button there? If somethings are embedded, then why aren't they visible in the HTML source code? Because when I
headElement.appendChild something by using Javascript, it appears in the HTML source as well.
And last but not least, how can I check if that LinkedIn button is standing there in an iframe or by itself?
EDIT: I inspected the element on Chrome and what I get is a bunch of
span tags. There is also an
a tag with
href="javascript:void(0);. What's that supposed to mean? What does
javascript:void(0) do?
I would appreciate some deep insight into this as I am pretty new to front-end development, html and javascript and all...
Any help appreciated.
