Abstract

See full text

A method of forming a semiconductor device includes defining a first type region and a second type region in a substrate, t separated by one or more inter-well STI structures; etching and filling, in at least one of the first type region and the second type region, one or more intra-well STI structures for isolating semiconductor devices formed within a same polarity well, wherein the one or more inter-well STI structures are formed at a substantially same depth with respect to the one or more intra-well STI structures; implanting, a main well region, wherein a bottom of the main well region is disposed above a bottom of the one or more inter-well and intra-well STI features; and implanting, one or more deep well regions that couple main well regions, wherein the one or more deep well regions are spaced away from the one or more inter-well STI structures.
