Abstract
In some embodiments, a semiconductor device is provided. The semiconductor device includes an isolation structure disposed in a semiconductor substrate, where an inner perimeter of the isolation structure demarcates a device region of the semiconductor substrate. A gate is disposed over the device region, where an outer perimeter of the gate is disposed within the inner perimeter of the isolation structure. A first source/drain region is disposed in the device region and on a first side of the gate. A second source/drain region is disposed in the device region and on a second side of the gate opposite the first side. A silicide blocking structure partially covers the gate, partially covers the first source/drain region, and partially covers the isolation structure, where a first sidewall of the silicide blocking structure is disposed between first opposite sidewalls of the gate.
