Abstract From the Canadian patent

Abstract of the Disclosure, Enhancement-mode field-effect transistors (FETs) and depletion-mode FETs are provided on the same semiconductive substrate using five basic, lithographic pattern-, delineating steps. The five lithographic masking steps delineate in order:, (1) the field isolation regions; (2) the enhancement-mode FET gate, electrodes; (3) the depletion-mode FET gate electrodes; (4) contact holes or vias to FET source and drain regions and to depletion-, mode FET gates; and (5) the high electrical conductivity, metallic-type interconnection pattern. The low-concentration doping required to form the depletionmode channel regions is provided after the second but before the third …
