Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate having an active region, a drain region in the active region, a source region in the active region, a gate structure, and a conductive field plate. The gate structure extends in a first direction over the active region. The gate structure is arranged between the drain region and the source region in a second direction transverse to the first direction. The conductive field plate extends in the second direction over an edge of the active region.

Abstract: A semiconductor structure includes a gate structure disposed on a substrate. At least one lightly doped region adjoins the gate structure in the substrate. The at least one lightly doped region has a first conductivity type. A source feature and a drain feature are on opposite sides of the gate structure in the substrate. The source feature and the drain feature have the first conductivity type. The source feature is in the at least one lightly doped region. A buck pick-up region adjoins the source feature in the at least one lightly doped region. The buck pick-up region has a second conductivity type.
