MOS-gated semiconductor devices

摘要

A gate electrode control structure of an MOS-gated semiconductor device includes four doped regions including a first (source) region forming a first P-N junction with an enclosing composite region comprising a second, lightly doped (channel) region wholly enclosing a third heavily doped (body) region partly enclosing the first region, and a fourth (drain) region forming a P-N junction with the third region. The gate electrode control structure is fabricated using known gate electrode self-alignment doping processes but, in the process for forming the third heavily doped region, a spacer layer is provided on the gate electrode for defining a spacing between the third region and the channel region. <IMAGE>
