Abstract
The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device. In one embodiment, the method for manufacturing the semiconductor device includes a method for manufacturing a zener diode, including among others, forming a doped well within a substrate and forming a suppression implant within the substrate. The method for manufacturing the zener diode may further include forming a cathode and an anode within the substrate, wherein the suppression implant is located proximate the doped well and configured to reduce threading dislocations.
