Abstract
A method for forming an integrated circuit structure is provided. The method includes forming a gate dielectric layer over a semiconductor substrate; depositing a first gate electrode layer over the gate dielectric layer; etching the first gate electrode layer to form a gate electrode over the gate dielectric layer; forming a drift region in the semiconductor substrate; depositing a dielectric layer over the gate dielectric layer and the gate electrode, in which the dielectric layer has a first portion alongside a first sidewall of the gate electrode; depositing a second gate electrode layer over the dielectric layer; etching the second gate electrode layer to form a field plate electrode alongside the first portion of the dielectric layer; and forming source/drain features in the semiconductor substrate.
