We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "SOI", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Wafer share scheme brings 45nm to academia from STMicroelectronics, which we summarised at the time by saying "The 45nm CMOS process builds on the successful collaboration that has allowed universities to access previous CMOS technology generations such as 65 and 90nm". A few weeks before, we featured the news release SBCs handle high voltages from Atmel Corporation: "The Smartis high-voltage BCD-on-SOI technology and the SO8 power package allow the devices to operate at supply voltages of up to 40V".
 
In August 2007, we covered the news from Innovative Silicon concerning its Z-RAM - take a look at Memory licence brings Z-RAM to market which says: "Hynix works with Innovative Silicon to bring Z-RAM technology to the US $30 billion-plus merchant memory market".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Atmel Corporation, Half-bridge driver runs from any automotive supply, as well as LIN devices claim new EMI benchmarks from Atmel Corporation, and Processors and memories meet military specs from Honeywell Defense and Space Electronic Systems.
