Abstract: Various processes are provided for producing a p-channel and/or n-channel transistor. The present processes are thereby applicable to NMOS, PMOS or CMOS integrated circuits, any of which derive a benefit from having an asymmetrical LDD structure. The asymmetrical structure can be produced on a p-channel or n-channel transistor in various ways. According, the present process employs various techniques to form an asymmetrical transistor. The various techniques employ processing steps which vary depending upon the LDD result desired. First, the LDD implant can be performed only in the drain-side of the channel, or in the drain-side as well as the source-side. Second, the gate conductor sidewall surface adjacent the drain can be made thicker than the sidewall surface adjacent the source.
