Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A semiconductor device and method of forming the semiconductor device are disclosed, where the semiconductor device includes additional implant regions in the source and drain areas of the device for improving Ron-sp and BVD characteristics of the device. The device includes a gate electrode formed over a channel region that separates first and second implant regions in the device substrate. The first implant region has a first conductivity type, and the second implant region has a second conductivity type. A source diffusion region is formed in the first implant region, and a drain diffusion region is formed in the second implant region.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device comprising: forming a well of a first conductivity type formed in a substrate; forming a gate electrode over the well; forming a first implant region in the well that extends from below the gate electrode, the first implant region having the first conductivity type; forming a second implant region in the well that extends from below the gate electrode, the second implant region having a second conductivi…
