Patent ID: 8552487

Claim:
A semiconductor structure comprising: a silicon-on-insulator substrate comprised of a top silicon layer overlying an insulation layer, where the insulation layer overlies a bottom silicon layer; a capacitor disposed at least partially in the insulation layer; a transistor disposed at least partially on the top silicon layer, where the transistor is coupled to a doped portion of the top silicon layer, where the doped portion of the top silicon layer comprises a source/drain region for the transistor; a backside strap comprised of first epitaxially-deposited material, where at least a first portion of the backside strap underlies the source/drain region, where the backside strap is coupled to a bottom of the source/drain region at a first end of the backside strap and to the capacitor at a second end of the backside strap; and second epitaxially-deposited material that at least partially overlies the source/drain region, where the second epitaxially-deposited material further at least partially overlies the first portion of the backside strap.
