ABSTRACT:
In one embodiment, a thyristor device may be formed in series relationship with a MOSFET. Alternating regions of opposite conductivity type may be formed in semiconductor material for defining source, body and drain regions for the MOSFET device, and in series relationship to the thyristor. A primary dopant for a commonly-shared cathode/anode-emitter and drain/source region may have a concentration that is at least one order of magnitude greater than that of any background dopant therein. In a particular embodiment, the thyristor device and the MOSFET in series relationship therewith collectively define part of a thyristor-based memory.
