Transistor in a semiconductor substrate having high-concentration source and drain region formed at the bottom of a trench adjacent to the gate electrode

Abstract

The present invention relates to a transistor in a semiconductor device and method of manufacturing the same. Trenches are formed in a semiconductor substrate at gate edges. Low-concentration impurity regions are then formed at the sidewalls and the bottoms of the trenches. High-concentration impurity regions are formed at the bottoms of the trenches in a depth shallower than the low-concentration impurity regions. Source/drain consisting of the low-concentration impurity regions and the high-concentration impurity regions are thus formed. Therefore, the size of the transistor can be reduced while securing a stabilized operating characteristic even at high voltage. It is thus possible to improve reliability of the circuit and the degree of integration in the device.
