Abstract:
The present invention provides a high-voltage metal-oxide-semiconductor (HVMOS) transistor comprising a substrate, a gate dielectric layer, a gate electrode and a source and drain region. The gate dielectric layer is disposed on the substrate and includes a protruded portion and a recessed portion, wherein the protruded portion is disposed adjacent to two sides of the recessed portion and has a thickness greater than a thickness of the recessed portion. The gate electrode is disposed on the gate dielectric layer. Thus, the protruded portion of the gate dielectric layer can maintain a higher breakdown voltage, thereby keeping the current from leaking through the gate.
