Abstract
A vertical diode is provided. The vertical diode includes a high-voltage N-type well region in a substrate, and two P-doped regions spaced apart from each other in the high-voltage N-type well region. The vertical diode also includes an N-type well region in the high-voltage N-type well region, and an N-type heavily doped region in the N-type well region. A plurality of isolation structures are formed on the substrate to define an anode region and a cathode region. There is a bottom N-type implanted region under the high-voltage N-type well region corresponding to the anode region. The bottom N-type implanted region directly contacts or partially overlaps the high-voltage N-type well region. A method for fabricating a vertical diode is also provided.
