Abstract:
An integrated circuit is formed on a semiconductor substrate and includes a trench conductor and a first transistor formed on the surface of the substrate. The transistor includes: a transistor gate structure, a first doped region extending in the substrate between a first edge of the gate structure and an upper edge of the trench conductor, and a first spacer formed on the first edge of the gate structure and above the first doped region. The first spacer completely covers the first doped region and a silicide is present on the trench conductor but is not present on the surface of the first doped region.
