Abstract
An embodiment of the present invention is a method of fabricating power and non-power devices on a semiconductor substrate, the method comprising: forming alignment marks in the substrate (100); introducing a dopant of a first conductivity type into the substrate to form high-voltage tank regions (103); annealing the dopants (105); introducing dopants of the first conductivity type and a second conductivity type in a region in the high-voltage tank region (109); annealing the dopants of the first and the second conductivity type to form a second region within a third region, both within the high-voltage tank region, due to the different rates of diffusion of the dopants (110); and forming gate structures after the annealing of the dopants of the first and second conductivity types (122).
