Abstract: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, including: forming a dielectric layer configured to be a gate oxide contacting the second well on the substrate, wherein the dielectric layer is single-layered dielectric layer and includes a contact via penetrating through the dielectric layer; and forming a patterned conductive layer contacting the dielectric layer, wherein the patterned conductive layer includes a first conductive portion isolated from the second well and configured to be a gate electrode, and a second conductive portion coupled to the first well via the contact via; wherein the first conductive portion is leveled with the second conductive portion, and the first conductive portion and the second conductive portion are formed entirely on a topmost surface of the dielectric layer; wherein the dielectric layer and the first conductive portion collectively serve as a gate of the transistor, and the transistor is configured as a high-voltage transistor.

Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a transistor. The transistor includes an active region in a substrate, a patterned conductive layer being a portion of an interconnection layer for routing, and an insulating layer extending over the substrate and configured to insulate the active region from the patterned conductive layer. The patterned conductive layer and the insulating layer serve as a gate of the transistor.

Abstract: A method includes forming an isolation region extending into a semiconductor substrate, etching a top portion of the isolation region to form a recess in the isolation region, and forming a gate stack extending into the recess and overlapping a lower portion of the isolation region. A source region and a drain region are formed on opposite sides of the gate stack. The gate stack, the source region, and the drain region are parts of a Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (MOS) device.
