Abstract

The invention relates to an integrated circuit structure that includes a substrate wafer having an active device layer disposed on a surface of the substrate wafer and having an electrically conductive element contained therein. The integrated circuit structure further comprises a barrier disposed between the substrate wafer and the active device layer, where the barrier blocks carriers injected into the substrate wafer and reduces low frequency oscillation effect.
