Please refer to FIG. 2A to FIG. 2F , which are schematic diagrams of the top view of the double-diffused-drain high voltage MOSFET (DDD HV MOS) process developed in the present invention. First, FIG. 2A shows that the active regions 201, 202 and the isolation structures 211, 212 are defined on the substrate 2 (eg, a crystal plate), wherein the isolation structures 211, 212 may be common shallow trench isolation insulating layers (Shallow Trench Isolation, referred to as STI). The high-pressure P well zone (HV P-well) and the high-pressure N well zone (HV N-well) doping implant (not shown in this figure) can be divided into two zones to represent The N-type oxynitride semi-transistor region and the P-type MOS transistor, wherein the active region 201 and the isolation structure 211 are used to complete the region of the N-type MOS transistor, and the active region 202 and the isolation structure 212 are The area used to complete the P-type MOS transistor.

Next, referring to FIG. 2B, the same lithography process is used to form a mask and a plurality of openings as shown in the figure, including a mask 200 covering the active area 202 and an opening 220 at both ends of the active area 201. 221, and using the opening not covered by the mask, the exposed area is doped and implanted, thereby completing the N-Grade 230, 231 and N-type fields as shown in FIG. 2C ( N-Field) 232. Next, the mask 200 is removed. Among them, the same mask shape and its opening are used to perform two dopant implantations. First, the implantation of the N-type field region 232 with deeper depth can be performed first, and then the implant depth is shallow. The dopants of the type of gradation regions 230, 231 are implanted, and the substantially N-type gradation regions 230, 231 are the same as the dopants of the N-type field region 232, and the concentration is similar, but the implantation depth is different, and the N-type field region 232 is The implantation depth will be greater than the N-type gradation regions 230, 231, and the implantation depth of the N-type field region 232 should preferably be greater than the bottom of the shallow trench isolation insulating layer. As can be seen from the above description, in the embodiment, the implantation process of the N-type field region 232 and the N-type gradation regions 230 and 231 share the mask and the opening defined by the same mask, so that the mask can be effectively reduced. The number has reached the main purpose of developing the case. The size of the N-type gradation regions 230, 231 beyond the ends of the active region 201 is about 0.3 microns.

The high concentration N-type doping region 331 and the high concentration P-type doping region 332 are the source/germanium regions of the N-type MOS transistor and the P-type MOS transistor, respectively. The P-type field region 312 formed under the shallow trench isolation insulating layer (STI) 351 between the N-type MOS transistors is used to isolate the adjacent N-type MOS transistors, and is located at the P-type. An N-type field region 312 is formed under the shallow trench isolation insulating layer (STI) 352 between the MOS transistors to isolate adjacent P-type MOS transistors. The N-type field region 311 and the N-type gradation region 321 share the mask of the same mask process for doping implantation, and the P-type field region 312 and the P-type gradation region 322 share another light. The mask that is completed by the mask process is used for dopant implantation, thereby effectively saving the number of masks required in the process.
