ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device having a high voltage MOS transistor. The device includes a gate oxide layer disposed between a gate electrode and a substrate on an active area and having relatively thick portions at edges thereof. A fabrication method includes forming on the substrate is a nitride layer having an opening in a high voltage region. An oxide layer is deposited over the substrate and anisotropically etched to remain only on sidewalls of the opening. A first gate oxide layer is formed on the substrate in the opening, and the nitride layer is removed. Then a second gate oxide layer is formed over the substrate such that the second gate oxide layer has a relatively thinner thickness than the first gate oxide layer. Gate electrodes are then formed in the high voltage region and the low voltage region.
