Abstract
High voltage devices and methods for forming a high voltage device are disclosed. The method includes providing a substrate having top and bottom surfaces. The substrate is defined with a device region and a recessed region disposed within the device region. The recessed region includes a recessed surface disposed lower than the top surface of the substrate. A transistor is formed over the substrate. Forming the transistor includes forming a gate at least over the recessed surface and forming a source region adjacent to a first side of the gate below the recessed surface. Forming the transistor also includes forming a drain region displaced away from a second side of the gate. First and second device wells are formed in the substrate within the device region. The first device well encompasses the drain region and the second device well encompasses the source region.
