Abstract :
Experimental measurements of the isolation provided by N and P-type rings, and triple-well structures implemented in 0.35 ¿m and 0.18 ¿m technologies are presented. The results obtained are compared to previous experimental works on isolation, and the conditions that affect the efficacy of the isolation techniques are discussed, as well as their dependence with frequency.
