    摘要: Structures for an extended-drain metal-oxide-semiconductor device and methods of forming a structure for an extended-drain metal-oxide-semiconductor device. First and second source/drain regions are formed in a substrate, and a gate electrode is formed over the substrate. The gate electrode has a sidewall, and the gate electrode is laterally positioned between the first source/drain region and the second source/drain region. A buffer dielectric layer is formed that includes a first dielectric layer having a first portion positioned between the substrate and the gate electrode. The dielectric layer also has a second portion positioned on the substrate laterally between the sidewall of the gate electrode and the first source/drain region. The first portion of the dielectric layer has a first thickness, and the second portion of the first dielectric layer has a second thickness that is less than the first thickness.

    摘要: The present invention discloses a Schottky diode. The Schottky diode comprises a substrate having a device well. A drift region is disposed within the device well. A guard ring region is disposed within the device well and adjacent to the drift region. A field isolation region and a dielectric film are disposed on a top substrate surface. The dielectric film is aligned to the field isolation region. A field plate is disposed over the field isolation region and the dielectric film. The field plate completely covers a top surface of the dielectric film and partially overlaps the guard ring region. A conductive contact layer is disposed adjacent to the dielectric film. The conductive contact layer contacts a portion of the device well to define a Schottky diode interface.

    摘要: Embodiments of a simple and cost-free multi-time programmable (MTP) structure for non-volatile memory cells are presented. A non-volatile MTP memory cell includes a substrate, first and second wells disposed in the substrate, a first transistor having a select gate and a second transistor having a floating gate adjacent one another and disposed over the second well and sharing a diffusion region. The memory cell further includes a control gate disposed over the first well. The control gate is coupled to the floating gate and the control and floating gates include the same gate layer extending across the first and the second wells.

    摘要: A structure includes a galvanic isolation including a horizontal portion including a first redistribution layer (RDL) electrode in a first insulator layer, and a second RDL electrode in the first insulator layer laterally spaced from the first RDL electrode. An isolation break includes a trench defined in the first insulator layer between the first RDL electrode and the second RDL electrode, and at least one second insulator layer in the trench. The first insulator layer and the second insulator layer(s) are between the first RDL electrode and the second RDL electrode. The isolation may separate, for example, voltage domains having different voltage levels. A related method is also disclosed. The isolation may also include a vertical portion using the first RDL electrode and another electrode in a metal layer separated from the first RDL electrode by a plurality of interconnect dielectric layers.

    摘要: The present disclosure generally relates to semiconductor structures for capacitive isolation, and structures incorporating the same. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to capacitive isolation structures for high voltage applications. The present disclosure also relates to methods of forming structures for capacitive isolation and the structures incorporating the same. The disclosed semiconductor structures may enable a smaller device footprint and reduced dimensions of components on an IC chip, whilst ensuring galvanic isolation between circuits.
