Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a substrate having a first conductivity type, a first heavily-doped region formed in the substrate and having the first conductivity type, a second heavily-doped region formed in the substrate and having the first conductivity type, and an embedded layer formed in the substrate and separated from the first and second heavily-doped regions. The embedded layer has a second conductivity type different from the first conductivity type. A portion of the embedded layer is beneath the first heavily-doped region. A third heavily-doped region is formed in the substrate, between the first and second heavily-doped regions, and contacting the embedded layer, and has the second conductivity type.
