Doping gives finFETs threshold control
You want finFETs with different threshold voltages on the same SoC? Forget what the FD-SOI guys tell you: it's possible. At least with a certain amount of performance loss, say IBM and GlobalFoundries.
FD-SOI to get foundry push in ST deal
A deal between GlobalFoundries and STMicroelectronics has answered the question as to where ICs based on an FD-SOI process can be made, and not just for ST.
