Abstract: The present disclosure, in some embodiments, relates an integrated chip. The integrated chip includes a substrate. A through-substrate-via (TSV) extends through the substrate. A dielectric liner separates the TSV from the substrate. The dielectric liner is along one or more sidewalls of the substrate. The TSV includes a horizontally extending surface and a protrusion extending outward from the horizontally extending surface. The TSV has a maximum width along the horizontally extending surface.

Abstract: Provided is a semiconductor device, including: a substrate, a well region of a first conductivity type, a field region of a second conductivity type, a first doped region of the first conductivity type, and a second doped region of the second conductivity type. The well region is located in the substrate. The field region is located in the well region. The first doped region is located in the well region of a first side of the field region. The second doped region is located in the field region, wherein the first doped region is at least partially surrounded by the second doped region.
