Abstract
A method for fabricating a transistor comprises steps of forming a conductive well region, an isolation oxide layer, a first pad oxide layer, a conductive LDD (low doped drain) region and a source/drain region on a silicon substrate. A pad nitride layer is formed on the first oxide layer. A trench is fanned by etching the pad nitride layer, the first oxide layer, the source/drain region, and the LDD region. A second pad oxide layer is then formed on the source/drain region and LDD region. The LDD region and part of the well region are removed after removal of the second pad oxide layer. A gate is formed in the trench, and an interlayer insulating layer is formed on the resultant structure.
