Low leakage gate controlled vertical electrostatic discharge protection device integration with a planar FinFET
Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes an electrostatic discharge (ESD) device formed adjacent to a first fin field effect transistor (finFET). The device includes a substrate, the first finFET and the ESD device. The first finFET is formed such that it includes finFET fins extending from the substrate. The ESD device includes two vertically stacked PN diodes including vertically stacked first, second, third and fourth layers. The first layer is an N doped layer and is disposed directly over the substrate, the second layer is a P doped layer and is disposed directly over the first layer, the third layer is an N doped layer and is disposed directly over the second layer and the fourth layer is a P doped layer and is disposed directly over the third layer.
