Abstract
A layout of a semiconductor device is stored on a non-transitory computer-readable medium. The layout includes a first transistor in an active device region and a second transistor in a guard ring region. The first transistor includes a first channel region, a first gate structure across the first channel region, and a first source region and a first drain region on opposite sides of the first channel region. The second transistor includes a second channel region, a second gate structure across the second channel region, a second source region and a second drain region on opposite sides of the second channel region. The second channel region includes a semiconductor material having a higher thermal conductivity than a semiconductor material of the first channel region.
