Abstract:
Example embodiments relate to a lateral type photodiode including a substrate, an insulation mask layer formed on the substrate, and a first type semiconductor layer, an active layer, and a second type semiconductor layer that contact a surface of the insulation mask layer and that are sequentially disposed in a direction substantially parallel to the surface of the insulation mask layer. The insulation mask layer includes a through hole, and the first type semiconductor layer, the active layer, and the second type semiconductor layer are sequentially formed from the through hole by using a lateral overgrowth method.
Abstract:
An integrated circuit device includes a semiconductor substrate having a first device region, a second device region, and a scribe line region therein. The scribe line region, which extends between the first and second device regions, includes a first edge region adjacent the first device region, a second edge region adjacent the second device region and a cutting region extending between the first and second device regions. A lower interlayer insulating layer is provided on the first and second device regions and on the scribe line region. A first multi-level guard ring is provided, which at least partially surrounds the first device region, when viewed from a plan perspective. An insulating structure is provided, which has a recess therein. The recess extends adjacent the first multi-level guard rings and exposes an upper surface of the lower interlayer insulating layer.
