Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a substrate and a gate structure over the substrate. The semiconductor device includes a source in the substrate on a first side of the gate structure. The semiconductor device further includes a drain in the substrate on a second side of the gate structure. The semiconductor device further includes a first well having a first dopant type, wherein the first well contacts at least two surfaces of the source. The semiconductor device further includes a second well having the first dopant type, wherein the second well contacts at least two surfaces of the drain. The semiconductor device further includes a deep well below the first well and below the second well, wherein the second well extends between the first well and the deep well. In some embodiments, the deep well has a second dopant type, and the second dopant type is opposite the first dopant type.
