Abstract
An MOSFET has the essential feature lying in that the depths of well regions are different between a channel region and a diffusion region under a gate electrode to suppress charges in depletion layers. The MOSFET comprises a first well region which is formed in the channel region of a substrate below a gate electrode, and has a PN junction shallower than the sum of the width of a channel depletion layer formed by a voltage applied to the gate electrode and the width of a depletion layer formed by a substrate voltage of the substrate, and a second well region which is formed in source and drain regions to extend to the first well region, and has a PN junction deeper than the sum of the width of a depletion layer formed in the source or drain region and the width of a depletion layer formed in the first well region by the substrate voltage of the substrate.
