    摘要: Semiconductor structures and methods for suppressing latch-up in bulk CMOS devices. The structure comprises a first doped well formed in a substrate of semiconductor material, a second doped well formed in the substrate proximate to the first doped well, and a deep trench defined in the substrate. The deep trench includes sidewalls positioned between the first and second doped wells. A buried conductive region is defined in the semiconductor material bordering the base and the sidewalls of the deep trench. The buried conductive region intersects the first and second doped wells. The buried conductive region has a higher dopant concentration than the first and second doped wells. The buried conductive region may be formed by solid phase diffusion from a mobile dopant-containing material placed in the deep trench. After the buried conductive region is formed, the mobile dopant-containing material may optionally remain in the deep trench.

    摘要: A well isolation trenches for a CMOS device and the method for forming the same. The CMOS device includes (a) a semiconductor substrate, (b) a P well and an N well in the semiconductor substrate, (c) a well isolation region sandwiched between and in direct physical contact with the P well and the N well. The P well comprises a first shallow trench isolation (STI) region, and the N well comprises a second STI region. A bottom surface of the well isolation region is at a lower level than bottom surfaces of the first and second STI regions. When going from top to bottom of the well isolation region, an area of a horizontal cross section of the well isolation region is an essentially continuous function.

    摘要: Semiconductor structures and methods for suppressing latch-up in bulk CMOS devices. The semiconductor structure comprises first and second adjacent doped wells formed in the semiconductor material of a substrate. A trench, which includes a base and first sidewalls between the base and the top surface, is defined in the substrate between the first and second doped wells. The trench is partially filled with a conductor material that is electrically coupled with the first and second doped wells. Highly-doped conductive regions may be provided in the semiconductor material bordering the trench at a location adjacent to the conductive material in the trench.
