Semiconductor device and method for fabricating semiconductor device

Abstract

A semiconductor device includes: an active region configured over a substrate to include a first conductive-type first deep well and second conductive-type second deep well forming a junction therebetween. A gate electrode extends across the junction and over a portion of first conductive-type first deep well and a portion of the second conductive-type second deep well. A second conductive-type source region is in the first conductive-type first deep well at one side of the gate electrode whereas a second conductive-type drain region is in the second conductive-type second deep well on another side of the gate electrode. A first conductive-type impurity region is in the first conductive-type first deep well surrounding the second conductive-type source region and extending toward the junction so as to partially overlap with the gate electrode and/or partially overlap with the second conductive-type source region.
