Abstract
A field-effect transistor has an extra gate above a shallow trench isolation (STI) to enhance and to adapt the low-frequency noise induced by an STI-silicon interface. By changing the voltage applied to the STI gate, the field-effect transistor is able to adapt its low-frequency noise over four decades. The field-effect transistor can be fabricated with a standard CMOS logic process without additional masks or process modification.
