  • Patent number: 9735291
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate; a well region of a first-conductivity-type, disposed in the substrate; a first impurity region of a first-conductivity-type disposed in the well region; a second impurity region of the second-conductivity-type disposed in the well region, the second-conductivity-type being opposite to the first-conductivity-type; a third impurity region disposed in the well region, a portion of the first impurity region overlapping a first portion of the third impurity region, a portion of the second impurity region overlapping a second portion of the third impurity region, and a third portion of the third impurity region being disposed between the first impurity region and the second impurity region; and a fourth impurity region and a barrier layer disposed in the substrate, the fourth impurity region and the barrier layer enclosing the well region from around and below, respectively.
