US Patent 8017935 Parallel redundant single-electron device and method of manufacture

A method of manufacturing a parallel redundant array of single-electron devices. The method includes (a) providing a mask for diffusing a plurality of n-doped regions defined by a first set of a plurality of active regions, (b) providing a mask for disposing a plurality of polysilicon gates defined by a second set of a plurality of exposed regions, wherein an offset between a first member of the plurality of the exposed region of the first set differs in offset from a second member of the plurality of the exposed region of the second set, and (c) fabricating the parallel redundant array of single-electron devices as a function of the offset.
