1. An integrated circuit transistor comprising:

  • a source;

    a drain; and

    a gate electrode formed from a conductive layer and having a top region, a bottom region, and first and second opposite vertical side walls, the first and second vertical side walls have a stepped surface such that a first lateral distance between the first and second vertical side walls in the top region is greater than a second lateral distance between the first and second vertical side walls in the bottom region.
