Abstract :
A buried and highly conductive layer beneath the silicon surface is used to improve the shielding of the interconnects and to facilitate the transmission of high speed signals. The technology is based on the Bonded Etch-back Silicon On Insulator (BESOI) technique. No additional mask level is required and design freedom is hardly limited
