Abstract:
1. A semiconductor device consisting of a substrate and a semiconductor body comprising a strip-shaped semiconductor region of silicon in which a field effect transistor is formed, wherein the strip-shaped semiconductor region has a first vertical side, a second vertical side, a first horizontal side, and a second horizontal side, wherein the second vertical side of the strip-shaped semiconductor region is positioned opposite to the first vertical side of the strip-shaped semiconductor region, wherein a source region of a first conductivity type, a channel region of a second conductivity type opposed to the first conductivity type, and a drain region of the first conductivity type are arranged in succession, seen in the longitudinal direction of the strip-shaped semiconductor region, wherein the channel region is provided with a gate dielectric on which a first gate electrode and a second gate electrode are located, wherein the first gate electrode is present at the first vertical side of the strip-shaped semiconductor region and is provided with a first connection region, and wherein the second gate electrode is present at the second vertical side of the strip-shaped semiconductor region and is provided with a second connection region, characterized in that the first and the second gate electrode completely fill spaces at either side of the strip-shaped semiconductor region over the width of the connection regions.
