<p>A silicon-gate insulated gate field effect transistor device has a thick field oxide in contiguous surrounding relation to its gate electrode and with a surface coplanar with or slightly higher than the surface of the gate electrode, thus facilitating crossovers and contacts to the gate electrode. The method of making this device includes forming a self-aligned silicon gate structure on a silicon wafer, masking the gate structure against the diffusion of oxygen, and thereafter oxidizing the silicon wafer to grow a thick silicon dioxide layer in surrounding relation to the silicon gate structure.</p> |
