Abstract
A semiconductor structure includes a substrate, a buried oxide layer formed in the substrate and near a surface of the substrate, a gate dielectric layer formed on the substrate and covering the buried oxide layer, a gate structure formed on the gate dielectric layer and overlapping the buried oxide layer, and a source region and a drain region formed in the substrate and at two sides of the gate structure.
Claims9
A semiconductor device, comprising:
- a substrate;
- a buried oxide layer in the substrate and near a surface of the substrate, wherein a surface of the buried oxide layer is flush with the surface of the substrate;
- a gate dielectric layer on the substrate and covering the buried oxide layer;
- a gate structure disposed on the gate dielectric layer and overlapping the buried oxide layer;
- and
- a source region and a drain region in the substrate and respectively at two sides of the gate structure, wherein a lower edge of the drain region is lower than a lower edge of the buried oxide layer, and the buried oxide layer directly contacts a side edge of the source region and a side edge of the drain region.
