Abstract
The present disclosure provides, in accordance with some illustrative embodiments, a method of forming a semiconductor device, the method including providing an SOI substrate with an active semiconductor layer disposed on a buried insulating material layer, which is in turn formed on a base substrate material, forming a gate structure on the active semiconductor layer in an active region of the SOI substrate, partially exposing the base substrate for forming at least one bulk exposed region after the gate structure is formed, and forming a contact structure for contacting the at least one bulk exposed region.
