Abstract:
A lateral double-diffused metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect (LDMOS) transistor includes a silicon semiconductor structure including (a) a base layer, (b) a p-type reduced surface field effect (RESURF) layer disposed over the base layer in a thickness direction, (c) a p-body disposed over the p-type RESURF layer in the thickness direction, (d) a source p+ region and a source n+ region each disposed in the p-body, (e) a high-voltage n-type laterally-diffused drain (HVNLDD) disposed adjacent to the p-body in a lateral direction orthogonal to the thickness direction, the HVNLDD contacting the p-type RESURF layer, and (f) a drain n+ region disposed in the HVNLDD. The LDMOS transistor further includes (a) a first dielectric layer disposed on the silicon semiconductor structure in the thickness direction over at least part of the p-body and the HVNLDD and (b) a first gate conductor disposed on the first dielectric layer in the thickness direction.
