Abstract:
In some embodiments, an integrated circuit is provided. The integrated circuit may include an inner ring-shaped isolation structure that is disposed in a semiconductor substrate. Further, the inner-ring shaped isolation structure may demarcate a device region. An inner ring-shaped well is disposed in the semiconductor substrate and surrounds the inner ring-shaped isolation structure. A plurality of dummy gates are arranged over the inner ring-shaped well. Moreover, the plurality of dummy gates are arranged within an interlayer dielectric layer.

Claim (Index 21):
An integrated circuit (IC) comprising:\n a first isolation structure disposed in a semiconductor substrate, wherein the first isolation structure demarcates a first device region comprising a plurality of first semiconductor devices; a first well disposed in the semiconductor substrate, wherein the first well extends continuously around the first isolation structure, such that the first well surrounds the first isolation structure; a first dishing prevention dummy gate disposed over the first well and in an interlayer dielectric (ILD) layer, wherein the first dishing prevention dummy gate contacts the first isolation structure; a second isolation structure disposed in the semiconductor substrate and spaced from the first isolation structure, wherein the second isolation structure demarcates a second device region comprising a plurality of second semiconductor devices; a second well disposed in the semiconductor substrate and spaced from the first well, wherein the second well extends continuously around the second isolation structure, such that the second well surrounds the second isolation structure; and a second dishing prevention dummy gate disposed over the second well and in the ILD layer, wherein the second dishing prevention dummy gate contacts the second isolation structure.
