Abstract
A method for forming a field effect transistor (FET) includes the following steps. A well region of a first conductivity type is formed in a semiconductor region of a second conductivity type. A gate electrode is formed adjacent to but insulated from the well region. A source region of the second conductivity type is formed in the well region. A heavy body recess is formed extending into and terminating within the well region adjacent the source region. The heavy body recess is at least partially filled with a heavy body material having a lower energy gap than the well region.
