Abstract
In a general aspect, a high-voltage metal-oxide-semiconductor (HVMOS) device can include comprising a first gate dielectric layer disposed on a channel region of the HVMOS device and a second gate dielectric layer disposed on at least a portion of a drift region of the HVMOS device. The drift region can be disposed laterally adjacent to the channel region. The second gate dielectric layer can have a thickness that is greater than a thickness of the first gate dielectric layer.
