Abstract

A method of fabricating a transistor with reduced hot carrier injection effects includes providing a substrate covered by a gate material layer. Later, the gate material layer is patterned into a gate electrode. Then, a mask layer is formed to cover part of the gate electrode and expose two ends of the gate electrode. Finally, a first implantation process is performed to implant dopants through the exposed two ends of the gate electrode into the substrate directly under the gate electrode to form two LDD regions by taking the mask layer as a mask.
