Abstract: A low dynamic resistance, low capacitance diode of a semiconductor device includes a heavily-doped n-type substrate. A lightly-doped n-type layer 1 micron to 5 microns thick is disposed on the n-type substrate. A lightly-doped p-type layer 3 microns to 8 microns thick is disposed on the n-type layer. The low dynamic resistance, low capacitance diode, of the semiconductor device includes a p-type buried layer, with a peak dopant density above 1×1017 cm−3, extending from the p-type layer through the n-type layer to the n-type substrate. The low dynamic resistance, low capacitance diode also includes an n-type region disposed in the p-type layer, extending to a top surface of the p-type layer.

Abstract: A contact array optimization scheme for ESD devices. In one embodiment, contact apertures patterned through a pre-metal dielectric layer over active areas may be selectively modified in size, shape, placement and the like, to increase ESD protection performance, e.g., such as maximizing the transient current density, etc., in a standard ESD rating test.

Abstract: Diodes for ESD protection devices are described. The diodes have low capacitance. In an example, a semiconductor device includes a substrate, an n-type epitaxial layer on the n-type substrate in a first region of the n-type substrate, and a p-type epitaxial layer on the n-type epitaxial layer with an interface between the n-type and p-type epitaxial layers. The p-type epitaxial layer has a first concentration of p-type dopants throughout the p-type epitaxial layer. Also, the semiconductor device includes a p-type dopant distribution straddling across the interface, the p-type dopant distribution having a first peak concentration of p-type dopants greater than the first concentration, and an n-type dopant distribution straddling across the interface, the n-type dopant distribution having a second peak concentration of n-type dopants. The second peak concentration is substantially same as the first peak concentration.
