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 (240) within a substrate (210) and forming a suppression implant (420) within the substrate (210). The method for manufacturing the zener diode may further include forming a cathode (620) and an anode (520) within the substrate (210), wherein the suppression implant (420) is located proximate the doped well (240) and configured to reduce threading dislocations.
