Abstract:
A semiconductor structure, comprising:a semiconductive-material-containing substrate and a semiconductive-material-containing line over the substrate; the substrate having a first p-type doped region and a first n-type doped region therein; the first p-type doped region and first n-type doped region being adjacent one another; the line having a second p-type doped region and a second n-type doped region therein; the line having an intervening region received intermediate the second p-type doped region and the second n-type doped region; the intervening region having a lower dopant concentration than either of the second p-type doped region and the second n-type doped region; and at least one conductive strap extending from the second p-type doped region of the line, across the intervening region, and to the second n-type doped region of the line.
