Abstract:
A MOS transistor structure comprising:a. a substrate of semiconductor material of first conductivity type;b. an epitaxial layer of semiconductor material of first conductivity type on a surface of said substrate, said epitaxial layer having formed therein a first active region, a second active region, and a channel therebetween, wherein said channel is configured in a fractal-based pattern;c. a gate oxide layer on a surface of said epitaxial layer over said first active region, said second active region, and said channel, wherein said gate oxide layer is configured in a fractal-based pattern corresponding to said fractal-based pattern of said channel; andd. a gate on a surface of said gate oxide layer, wherein said gate is configured in a fractal-based pattern substantially conforming with said fractal-based pattern of said gate oxide layer.
