Abstract
Fabrication methods and device structures for a silicon controlled rectifier. A cathode is arranged over a top surface of a substrate and a well is arranged beneath the top surface of the substrate. The cathode is composed of a semiconductor material having a first conductivity type, and the well also has the first conductivity type. A semiconductor layer, which has a second conductivity type opposite to the first conductivity type, includes a section over the top surface of the substrate. The section of the semiconductor layer is arranged to form an anode that adjoins the well along a junction.
