Abstract

A method of fabricating a MOSFET transistor and resulting structure having a drain-gate feedback capacitance shield formed in a recess between a gate electrode and the drain region. The shield does not overlap the gate and thereby minimizes effect on the input capacitance of the transistor. The process does not require complex or costly processing since one additional non-critical mask is required with selective etch used to create the recess.
