Abstract
A method for fabricating a LDMOS device in a well region of a semiconductor substrate, including: forming a body region and a source layer in the well region through a window of a polysilicon layer above the well region, wherein the body region has a deeper junction depth than the source layer; forming spacers at side walls of the polysilicon layer; and etching through the source layer through a window shaped by the spacers, wherein the source layer under the spacers is protected from etching, and is defined as source regions of the LDMOS device.
