Abstract:
A MOSFET comprising:a semiconductor substrate of a first conductivity type including a field region and an active region;a gate insulating film on a portion of the active region, the gate insulating film having two edge parts and a mid-part, the two edge parts being thicker than the mid-part;a gate electrode on the gate insulating film, both the mid-part and the two edge parts of the gate insulating film being completely covered by the gate electrode;sidewall spacers on the sides of the gate electrode and the gate insulating film;heavily doped regions of a second conductivity type in the semiconductor substrate under the two edge parts of the gate insulating film;normally doped regions of the second conductivity type in the semiconductor substrate on both sides of the gate insulating film;lightly doped regions of the second conductivity type in the semiconductor substrate on the sides of the sidewall spacers and not underneath the two edge parts of the gate insulating film; anddoped regions of the first conductivity type below the normally doped region of the second conductivity type under the sidewall spacers.
