Abstract: The present application features a transistor that includes an n-well region implanted into a surface of a substrate, a gate region, and a source region, and a drain region. The source region is on a first side of the gate region and includes a p-body region in the n-well region. An n+ region and a p+ region are implanted in the p-body region such that the p+ region is below the n+ region. The drain region is on a second side of the gate region and includes an n+ region.

Abstract: Described here are transistors and fabrication methods thereof. In one implementation, a transistor includes an n-well region implanted into a surface of a substrate, and a trench in the n-well region. The trench extends from the surface to a first depth. The trench includes a gate of conductive material in the trench, and dielectric material filling a volume of the trench not filled by the conductive material. The transistor also includes a p-type material in a first region extending from a second depth to a third depth, the second depth and the third depth being greater than the first depth. The transistor further includes a source region and a drain region.

Abstract: A method of fabricating a vertical gate region in LDMOS transistor includes depositing a first masking layer on an n-well region implanted on a substrate, patterning the first masking layer to define an area, depositing a second masking layer over the area, etching through the second masking layer in a first portion of the area to expose the n-well region, and etching the exposed n-well region to form a first trench. The first trench, extending from a surface of the n-well region to a first depth, is filled with an oxide. The second masking layer is etched through in a second portion of the area to expose the n-well region. A second trench is formed in the n-well, the second trench extending from the surface to a second depth, less than the first depth. An asymmetric vertical gate is formed by filling the second trench with a conductive material.

Abstract: The present application features methods of fabricating a gate region in a vertical laterally diffused metal oxide semiconductor (LDMOS) transistor. In one aspect, a method includes depositing a masking layer on an n-well region implanted on a substrate, patterning the masking layer to define an area, and forming a first trench in the area such that a length of the first trench extends from a surface of the n-well region to a first depth in the n-well region. The method also includes filling the first trench by a conductive material and depositing a layer of oxide over the area. The method further includes etching out at least a portion of the oxide layer to expose a portion of the conductive material, removing the conductive material from the exposed portion to form a second trench, and filling the second trench with an oxide to form an asymmetric gate of the transistor.
