A method for forming a well providing access to a sensor pad includes patterning a first photoresist layer over a dielectric structure disposed over the sensor pad; etching a first access into the dielectric structure and over the sensor pad, the first access having a first characteristic diameter; patterning a second photoresist layer over the dielectric structure; and etching a second access over the dielectric structure and over the sensor pad. The second access has a second characteristic diameter. The first and second accesses overlapping. A diameter ratio of the first characteristic diameter to the second characteristic diameter is not greater than 0.7. The first access exposes the sensor pad. The second access has a bottom depth less than a bottom depth of the first access.
