Disclosed are devices and methods related to field-effect transistor (FET) structures configured to provide reduced per-area values of resistance in the linear operating region (Rds-on). Typical FET devices such as silicon-on-insulator (SOI) device require larger device sizes to desirably lower the Rds-on values. However, such increases in size result in undesirably larger die sizes. Disclosed are various examples of shapes of source, drain, and corresponding gate that yield reduced Rds-on values without having to increase the device size. In some implementations, such FET devices can be utilized in high power radio-frequency (RF) switching applications. In some implementations, a plurality of such FETs can be connected in series to allow use of SOI technology in high power RF switching applications while maintaining a relatively small die size. |
