Abstract

Structures and methods of fabrication thereof related to an improved semiconductor on insulator (SOI) transistor formed on an SOI substrate. The improved SOI transistor includes a substantially undoped channel extending between the source and the drain, an optional threshold voltage set region positioned below the substantially undoped channel, and a screening region positioned below the threshold voltage set region. The threshold voltage of the improved SOI transistor can be adjusted without halo implants or threshold voltage implants into the channel, using the position and/or dopant concentration of the screening region and/or the threshold voltage set region.
