Abstract
A vertical field effect transistor (700) and fabrication method with buried gates (704) having gate sidewall crystal orientation the same as the substrate surface and a low index substrate crystal orientation without tilt to a higher index direction. The gate (704) may have modulated doping along the channel (706), and the drain (708) may have a lighter doping level than the channel which may be accomplished by an epitaxial overgrowth of the gates (704) to form the channels (706).
