The present invention discloses a semiconductor structure. A buried layer of a first polarity type is constructed on a semiconductor substrate. A first epitaxial layer of a second polarity type is formed on the buried layer. A second epitaxial layer of the second polarity type is formed on the buried layer. An isolation structure of the first polarity type is formed between the first and second epitaxial layers on the buried layer. A first well of the second polarity type is formed on the first epitaxial layer. A second well of the second polarity type is formed on the second epitaxial layer. A third well of the first polarity type is formed between the first and second wells, on the isolation structure. The isolation structure interfaces with the buried layer and the third well, thereby substantially blocking a leakage current path between the first and the second wells.

MOS device with a high voltage isolation structure

A method is disclosed for integrally forming at least one low voltage device and at least one high voltage device. According to the method, a first gate structure and a second gate structure are formed on a semiconductor substrate, wherein the first and second gate structures are isolated from one another. One or more first double diffused regions are formed adjacent to the first gate structure in the semiconductor substrate. One or more second double diffused regions are formed adjacent to the second gate structure in the semiconductor substrate. One or more first source/drain regions are formed within the first double diffused regions. One or more second source/drain regions are formed within the second double diffused regions. The first double diffused regions function as one or more lightly doped source/drain regions for the low voltage device.
