ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor having an ˜5V operational range, including a drain side enhanced gate-overlapped LDD (GOLD) and a source side halo implant region and well implant. A method in accordance with an embodiment of the invention comprises forming a gate electrode overlying a substrate and a very lightly doped epitaxial layer formed on the substrate. A high energy implant region forms a well in a source side of the lightly doped epitaxial layer. A self-aligned halo implant region is formed on a source side of the device and within the high energy well implant. An implant region on a drain side of the lightly doped epitaxial layer forms the gate overlapped LDD (GOLD). A doped region within the halo implant region forms a source. A doped region within the gate overlapped LDD (GOLD) forms a drain. The structure enables the manufacture of a deep submicron (<0.3 μm) power MOSFET using existing 0.13 μm process flow without additional masks and processing steps.
