Semiconductor devices with a sloped surface

Abstract:

In some examples, a semiconductor device, comprises a semiconductor substrate; an epitaxial layer having a top side disposed on the semiconductor substrate, wherein the epitaxial layer has a source implant region, a drain implant region, a first doped region, and a second doped region, wherein the first doped region is adjacent to the source implant region and the second doped region is adjacent to the drain implant region, wherein the top side has a sloped surface over the second doped region; a gate electrode supported by the top side; a source electrode in contact with the source implant region; and a drain electrode in contact with the drain implant region.
