Abstract
JMOS depletion mode transistors include back-to-back junctions in the doped polysilicon layer that serves as the gate. The polysilicon layer includes a first region of the same conductivity type as the channel in contact with the channel, and a second region, of the same conductivity type as the channel and to which the gate potential is applied, spaced apart by a region of the opposite conductivity type that serves as a sink for minority carriers in the channel. Both buried oxide layer and recessed gate JMOS transistors are included.
