ABSTRACT:
A junction field effect transistor (JFET) with a novel gate. The novel gate uses a gate region (19) induced by charged ions (13) located in the gate dielectric layer (12) above the channel region (1). The charged ions (13) that induce the gate region are implanted into the gate dielectric layer (12) and subsequently activated. Both N channel and P channel devices can be produced in this fashion. The invention, unlike conventional JFET's, may be forward biased, and is free of the noise produced by a conventional diffused gate region.
