Abstract

In certain aspects, an apparatus comprises an SOI MOSFET having a diffusion region as a source or a drain on a back insulating layer, wherein the diffusion region has a front diffusion side and a back diffusion side opposite to the front diffusion side; a silicide layer on the front diffusion side having a back silicide side facing the diffusion region and a front silicide side opposite to the back silicide side; and a backside contact connected to the silicide layer, wherein at least a portion of the backside contact is in the back insulating layer.
