Method of contacting a silicide-based schottky diode

摘要

A method of contacting a silicide-based Schottky diode including the step of providing a contact to the silicide that is fully bordered with respect to an internal edge of the guard ring area. A Schottky diode having silicide contacting a guard ring of the Schottky diode and a contact to the silicide that is fully bordered by silicide with respect to an internal edge of the guard ring.
