Patent ID: 7820530

Claim:
A method for forming a body contacted semiconductor-on-insulator transistor comprising: providing a first semiconductor layer over an insulating layer, where the first semiconductor layer comprises a body contact region, a body access region that is adjacent to the body contact region, and an active region that is adjacent to the body access region; forming a semiconductor-on-insulator transistor in the active region by forming an etched metal gate structure over the first semiconductor layer, where the etched metal gate structure comprises: a first portion formed over the active region with source and drain regions formed in the active region on opposite sides of the first portion, and a second portion formed over at least part of the body access region; implanting ions at a non-perpendicular angle into an implant region in the body access region to encroach under the second portion of the etched metal gate structure; and forming silicide over the etched metal gate structure, the body contact region, and the implant region.
