A semiconductor device and method of fabricating the same are disclosed. The method includes depositing a polysilicon gate layer over a gate dielectric formed over a surface of a substrate in a peripheral region, forming a dielectric layer over the polysilicon gate layer and depositing a height-enhancing (HE) film over the dielectric layer. The HE film, the dielectric layer, the polysilicon gate layer and the gate dielectric are then patterned for a high-voltage Field Effect Transistor (HVFET) gate to be formed in the peripheral region. A high energy implant is performed to form at least one lightly doped region in a source or drain region in the substrate adjacent to the HVFET gate. The HE film is then removed, and a low voltage (LV) logic FET formed on the substrate in the peripheral region. In one embodiment, the LV logic FET is a high-k metal-gate logic FET.
