摘要:
Transistor and method of manufacturing a bipolar transistor of the double-polysilicon, heterojunction-base type, in which a semiconducting layer with SiGe heterojunction is formed by non-selective epitaxy on an active region of a substrate and an insulating region surrounding the active region. At least one stop layer is formed on the semiconducting layer above a part of the active region. A layer of polysilicon and an upper insulating layer are formed on the semiconducting layer and on a part of the stop layer, leaving an emitter window free. An emitter region is formed by epitaxy in the emitter window, resting partially on the upper insulating layer and in contact with the semiconducting layer.
摘要:
The fabrication process comprises a phase of producing a base region having an extrinsic base and an intrinsic base, and a phase of producing an emitter region comprising an emitter block having a narrower lower part located in an emitter window provided above the intrinsic base. Production of the extrinsic base comprises implantation of dopants, carried out after the emitter window has been defined, on either side of and at a predetermined distance dp from the lateral boundaries of the emitter window, so as to be self-aligned with respect to this emitter window, and before the emitter block is formed.
