    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to semiconductor structures and, more particularly, to high voltage diode structures and methods of manufacture. The structure includes: a diode structure composed of first well of a first dopant type in a substrate; and a well ring structure of the first dopant type in the substrate which completely surrounds the first well of the first dopant type, and spaced a distance “x” from the first well to cut a leakage path to a shallower second well of a second dopant type.

    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and systems for forming a semiconductor substrate comprising a well region containing a first impurity; forming a gate on the semiconductor substrate above the well region; implanting a second impurity, of a type opposite the first impurity, in the well region on each side of the gate and to a depth above a bottom of the well region, to form two second impurity regions each having a first concentration; removing an upper portion of each second impurity region, to yield two source/drain (S/D) cavities above two depletion regions; and growing epitaxially a doped S/D region in each S/D cavity, wherein each S/D region comprises the second impurity having a second concentration greater than the first concentration.

    Abstract: A first layer on a substrate includes an insulator material portion adjacent an energy-reactive material portion. The energy-reactive material portion evaporates upon application of energy during manufacturing. Processing patterns the first layer to include recesses extending to the substrate in at least the energy-reactive material portion. The recesses are filled with a conductor material, and a porous material layer is formed on the first layer and on the conductor material. Energy is applied to the porous material layer to: cause the energy to pass through the porous material layer and reach the energy-reactive material portion; cause the energy-reactive material portion to evaporate; and fully remove the energy-reactive material portion from an area between the substrate and the porous material layer, and this leaves a void between the substrate and the porous material layer and adjacent to the conductor material.

    Abstract: Field-effect transistor structures for a laterally-diffused metal-oxide-semiconductor (LDMOS) device and methods of forming a LDMOS device. First and second fins are formed that extend vertically from a top surface of a substrate. A body region is arranged partially in the substrate and partially in the first fin. A drain region is arranged partially in the substrate, partially in the first fin, and partially in the second fin. The body and drain regions respectively have opposite first and second conductivity types. A source region of the second conductivity type is located within the first well in the first fin, and a gate structure is arranged to overlap with a portion of the first fin. The first fin is separated from the second fin by a cut extending vertically to the top surface of the substrate. An isolation region is arranged in the cut between the first fin and the second fin.

    Abstract: A device includes a substrate, a first well doped with dopants of a first conductivity type defined in the substrate, and a second well doped with dopants of a second conductivity type different than the first conductivity type defined in the substrate adjacent the first well to define a PN junction. The second well includes a silicon alloy portion displaced from the PN junction. A collector region contacts one of the first or second wells and has a dopant concentration higher than its contacted well. An emitter region contacts the other of the first or second wells and is doped with dopants of the first or second conductivity type different than the first or second well contacted by the emitter region. A base region contacts the other of the first or second well and has a dopant concentration higher than the first or second well contacted by the base region.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate, a first well doped with dopants of a first conductivity type defined in the substrate, and a second well doped with dopants of a second conductivity type different than the first conductivity type defined in the substrate adjacent the first well to define a PN junction between the first and second wells. The second well includes a silicon alloy portion displaced from the PN junction. A source region is positioned in one of the first well or the second well. A drain region is positioned in the other of the first well or the second well. A gate structure is positioned above the substrate laterally positioned between the source region and the drain region.
