Abstract
SOI MOSFET devices have proven very robust to plasma process induced gate oxide damage. In this work, we demonstrate that SOI devices with very large antenna ratios may be successfully fabricated without damage, provided that asymmetry of charging is not intentionally introduced, no connection is made to the wafer bulk, and that the integrity of the buried oxide is maintained
