Abstract
Methods for forming FIN-shaped field effect transistors (FINFETs) capable of withstanding high voltage applications and the resulting devices are disclosed. Embodiments include forming a source and a drain on a substrate, forming a thin body (FIN) on the substrate and connecting the source and the drain, forming a gate over top and side surfaces of a first part of the FIN, thereby defining a drain-side FIN region of the FIN between the gate and the drain, and forming a shielding region over top and side surfaces of a second part of the FIN in the drain-side FIN region.
