Abstract

An IGFET ( or ) has a channel zone ( or ) situated in body material ( ). Short-channel threshold voltage roll-off and punchthrough are alleviated by arranging for the net dopant concentration in the channel zone to longitudinally reach a local surface minimum at a location between the IGFET's source/drain zones ( and or and ) and by arranging for the net dopant concentration in the body material to reach a local subsurface maximum more than 0.1 &mgr;m deep into the body material but not more than 0.1 &mgr;m deep into the body material. The source/drain zones ( and or and ) of a p-channel IGFET ( or ) are provided with graded-junction characteristics to reduce junction capacitance, thereby increasing switching speed.
