Abstract
An electronic device can include a buried conductive region, a buried insulating layer over the buried conductive region, and a semiconductor layer disposed over the buried insulating layer, wherein the semiconductor layer has a primary surface and an opposing surface, and the buried conductive region is disposed closer to the opposing surface than to the primary surface. The electronic device can also include a current-carrying electrode of a first transistor, wherein the current carrying electrode is disposed along the primary surface and spaced apart from the buried conductive layer. The electronic device can also include a vertical conductive structure extending through the buried insulating layer, wherein the vertical conductive structure is electrically connected to the current-carrying electrode and the buried conductive region.
