ABSTRACT:
A complementary Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI) Lateral Insulated Gate Rectifier (LIGR) is fabricated in a monocrystalline silicon layer provided on a major surface of a substantially insulating substrate. The monocrystalline silicon layer includes a number of adjacent, doped coplanar layer portions, with the complementary SOI LIGR device being formed of adjacent, contacting layer portions forming two complementary LIGR elements with a common source region. The common source region, as well as both of the drain regions of the device, are composed of regions of both the first and second conductivity types. In this manner, a simple, easily fabricated, balanced, high performance complementary LIGR structure is obtained in which undesired substrate currents are substantially eliminated.
