Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, the aforementioned Z 2 -FETs must be built on a special SOI substrate, which is expensive and incompatible with the bulk silicon material used in large quantities in the industry
Furthermore, to generate the special band structure required for positive feedback, Z 2 -FET has an asymmetric physical structure, which makes it incompatible with the symmetrical structure and self-alignment process of ordinary MOSFETs, and is more susceptible to lithographic alignment errors
This further increases the difficulty and cost of the process

Abstract

The invention discloses a novel semiconductor field-effect positive feedback transistor based on a bulk silicon substrate and a method thereof. Source and drain electrodes of the transistor are in reverse heavy doping, wherein one side is in p<+> type doping, and the other side is in n<+> type doping; a channel is in weak doping; a low-drain doped region (LDD) defined by grid side walls is close to the channel; and the substrate is doped opposite to the channel in doping type. A traditional field-effect positive feedback device, such as a Z<2>-FET, is established on a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrate, so that the traditional field-effect positive feedback device is high in price and asymmetric in structure and is incompatible with a common bulk silicon CMOS process and a device structure; and by introducing the key LDD, channel and substrate doping, the structure-symmetry novel semiconductor field-effect positive feedback transistor is formed on the bulk silicon substrate. The novel device provided by the invention is lower in process cost and smaller in process difficulty, and can be widely applied to the fields of high-performance dynamic and static memories (DRAM and SRAM),low sub-threshold swing switches and electrostatic protection and sensing and the like.
