An isolation structure prevents inter-device and intra-device leakage in first and second adjacent semiconductor devices in a substrate. The first and second semiconductor devices each include a gate region and at least one active region. A first channel stop region is configured to surround the first semiconductor device. A second channel stop region is configured to surround the second semiconductor device. A first field plate is located above at least part of the first channel stop region, and overlaps the gate region of the first semiconductor device in a first overlap region. A second field plate is located above at least part of the second channel stop region, and overlaps the gate region of the second semiconductor device in a second overlap region.

Semiconductor device isolation using an aligned diffusion and polysilicon field plate

A channel stop is provided for a semiconductor device that includes at least one active region. The channel stop is configured to surround the semiconductor device, to abut the at least one active region at a periphery of the semiconductor device, and to share an electrical connection with the at least one active region.
