ABSTRACT:
A metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) device having an insulating barrier buried in the substrate between the device's source and drain regions. The insulating barrier can be in contact with the source region of the MOS device. The barrier is implanted in the substrate through a masked implantation of high doses of oxygen, followed by an annealing of the oxygen to form the silicon dioxide insulating barrier. The insulating barrier can be either discrete or part of a continuous sheet of silicon dioxide placed below the silicon substrate. Placing the insulating barrier between the source and drain regions substantially diminishes the punch-through effect of subsurface currents, thereby increasing the punch-through voltage. This permits the construction of MOS devices having shorter channel lengths with resulting higher circuit density and greater speed.
