Abstract

An insulated gate field effect transistor is formed in one surface of a semiconductor substrate. The surface portion of a channel has an impurity distribution of the conduction type opposite to that of the substrate, which the deeper portion of the channel has an impurity distribution of the same conduction type as that of the substrate. Moreover, at least one of a source and a drain is formed of such an impurity layer of the conduction type opposite to that of the substrate as has its impurity distribution gently sloped by double diffusion processes.
