BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0001] 1. Field of the Invention
[0002] The present invention relates generally to a semiconductor device and a method of manufacturing the same. More particularly, the invention relates to a semiconductor device comprising a metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) transistor and a method of manufacturing the same.
[0003] A claim of priority is made to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2004-0049004 filed on Jun. 28, 2004, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
[0004] 2. Description of the Related Art
[0005] Fully depleted silicon-on-insulator (FD-SOI) technology has been widely used to create high speed, low power logic circuits. Using FD-SOI technology reduces parasitic capacitances associated with source, drain, and channel regions of semiconductor circuits, thereby allowing the circuits to operate at higher speeds. In addition, FD-SOI technology reduces the amount of leakage current occurring at source and drain junctions o...
