摘要:
An MOS device includes a semiconductor layer of a first conductivity type and first and second source/drain regions of a second conductivity type formed in the semiconductor layer proximate an upper surface of the semiconductor layer. The first and second source/drain regions are spaced apart relative to one another. A gate is formed above and electrically isolated from the semiconductor layer, at least partially between the first and second source/drain regions. At least a given one of the first and second source/drain regions is configured having an effective width that is substantially greater than a width of a junction between the semiconductor layer and the given source/drain region.

The invention relates to a method of making an integrated circuit inductor that comprises a silicon substrate and an oxide layer on the silicon substrate. In one aspect, the method comprises depositing an inductive loop on the oxide layer, and making a plurality of apertures in the oxide layer beneath the inductive loop.

摘要:
In the prior art LDMOSFET devices capable of handling high power have been made by locating the source contact on the bottom surface of the device, allowing for good heat sinking, with connection to the source region being made through a sinker. However, this structure has poor high frequency characteristics. Also in the prior art, good high frequency performance has been achieved by introducing a dielectric layer immediately below the source/drain regions (SOI) but this structure has poor power handling capabilities. The present invention achieves both good high frequency behavior as well as good power capability in the same device. Instead of inserting a dielectric layer over the entire cross-section of the device, the dielectric layer is limited to being below the heavily doped section of the drain with a small amount of overlap into the lightly doped section. The structure is described in detail together with a process for manufacturing it.
