WIDE CONTACT STRUCTURE FOR SMALL FOOTPRINT RADIO FREQUENCY (RF) SWITCH
A structure includes channel regions located between source/drain regions, and a polysilicon gate structure including a plurality of gate fingers, each extending over a corresponding channel region. Each gate finger includes first and second rectangular portions extending in parallel with a first axis, and a connector portion that introduces an offset between the first and second rectangular portions along a second axis.
