Patent attributes
The present invention provides a system for providing a cross-lateral junction field effect transistor (114) having desired high-performance desired voltage, frequency or current characteristics. The cross-lateral transistor is formed on a commercial semiconductor substrate (102). A channel structure (124) is formed along the substrate, having source (120) and drain (122) structures laterally formed on opposites sides thereof. A first gate structure (116) is formed along the substrate, laterally adjoining the channel structure orthogonal to the source and drain structures. A second gate structure (118) is formed along the substrate, laterally adjoining the channel structure, orthogonal to the source and drain structures and opposite the first gate stricture.
