Abstract: The present invention provides a semiconductor device that has reduced a short-channel effect by preventing the effective channel length at the sides of a channel of a transistor from decreasing by forming the length of a gate electrode to be different according to the parts. The semiconductor device according to the present invention includes a semiconductor substrate including active regions where a semiconductor device is to be fabricated and isolation regions for electrically isolating the active regions. A gate electrode is formed to go across the active region. A source and a drain are formed in the active region at both sides of the gate electrode, wherein the length of the gate electrode on the upper surface of the sides of the active region is longer than the length of the gate electrode of the center of the active region.

Abstract: A trench or a recess is formed in a predetermined part of a semiconductor substrate. Then, on the side of the trench or recess, a gate with a sidewall is formed by respective etching-back processes. Using the gate as a mask, a low concentration region for the LDD structure is formed. Using the gate and sidewall as a mask, a source region and a drain region are formed. Thus, the channel region makes a right angle with the trench or recess, and the channel region is bent. Further, the channel region is made to be formed so as to be longer than the width of the gate. Since the low concentration region for the LDD structure is formed only in the drain region, the source resistance can be decreased, and a gate with a narrow width can be easily formed. Further, even if the channel length is short, the occurrence of the DIBL phenomenon can be suppressed.
