Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing a bipolar transistor. A semiconductor substrate is provided that encompasses a collector area of a first conductivity type, which is embedded therein and is bare towards the top. A monocrystalline base area is provided and a base-connecting area of the second conductivity type is provided above the base area. An insulating area is provided above the base-connecting area and a window is formed in the insulating area and the base-connecting area so as to at least partly expose the base area. An insulating sidewall spacer is provided in the window in order to insulate the base-connecting area. An emitter layer which forms a monocrystalline emitter area above the base area and a polycrystalline emitter area above the insulating area and the sidewall spacer is differentially deposited and structured, and a tempering step is carried out.
Abstract:
A bipolar transistor includes a first layer with a collector. A second layer has a base cutout for a base. A third layer includes a lead for the base. The third layer is formed with an emitter cutout for an emitter. An undercut is formed in the second layer adjoining the base cutout. The base is at least partially located in the undercut. In order to obtain a low transition resistance between the lead and the base, an intermediate layer is provided between the first and the second layer. The intermediate layer is selectively etchable with respect to the second layer. At least in the region of the undercut between the lead and the base, a base connection zone is provided that can be adjusted independent of other production conditions. The intermediate layer is removed in a contact region with the base.
Abstract:
The silicon bipolar transistor (100) comprises a base, with a first highly-doped base layer (105) and a second poorly-doped base layer (106) which together form the base. The emitter is completely highly-doped and mounted directly on the second base layer (106).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for fabricating a transistor structure, comprising at least a first and a second bipolar transistor having different collector widths.The invention is distinguished by the fact that all junctions between differently doped regions have a sharp interface. In this case, by way of example, a first collector region 2.1 is suitable for a high-frequency transistor with high limiting frequencies fT and a second collector region 2.2 is suitable for a high-voltage transistor with increased breakdown voltages.

Abstract:
A bipolar transistor comprising a collector region of a first conduction type, and a subcollector region of the first conduction type at a first side of the collector region. The transistor further includes a base region of the second conduction type provided at a second side of the collector region, and an emitter region of the first conduction type which is provided above the base region on the side remote from the collection region. A carbon-doped semiconductor region is provided on the first side alongside the collector region. The bipolar transistor is characterized in that the carbon-doped semiconductor region has a carbon concentration of 1019-1021 cm−3 and the base region has a smaller cross section than the collector region and the collector region has, in the overlap region with the base region, a region having an increased doping compared with the remaining region. The carbon-doped semiconductor region prevents an outdiffusion from the zone of the collector region into the remaining region of the collector region.

Abstract:
For producing a laterally limited, single-crystal region on a substrate, for example the collector of a bipolar transistor or the active region of a MOS transistor, a mask layer having an opening is produced on the surface of a substrate. The surface of the substrate is exposed within the opening. The cross-section of the opening parallel to the surface of the substrate at the surface of the substrate projects laterally beyond that cross-section at the surface of the mask layer. The sidewall of the opening proceeds essentially perpendicularly relative to the surface of the substrate in the region of the surface of the mask layer and has a step-shaped profile in cross-section perpendicularly relative to the surface of the substrate. The single-crystal region is formed by selective epitaxy within the opening.
Abstract:
A method for fabricating a transistor structure with a first and a second bipolar transistor having different collector widths is presented. The method includes providing a semiconductor substrate, introducing a first buried layer of the first bipolar transistor and a second buried layer of the second bipolar transistor into the semiconductor substrate, and producing at least a first collector region having a first collector width on the first buried layer and a second collector region having a second collector width on the second buried layer. A first collector zone having a first thickness is produced on the second buried layer for production of the second collector width. A second collector zone having a second thickness is produced on the first collector zone. At least one insulation region is produced that isolates at least the collector regions from one another.
Abstract:
A high-frequency bipolar transistor includes an emitter contact adjoining an emitter connection region, a base contact adjoining a base connection region, and a collector contact adjoining a collector connection region. A first insulation layer is disposed on the base connection region. The collector connection region contains a buried layer, which connects the collector contact to a collector zone. A silicide or salicide region is provided on the buried layer and connects the collector contact to the collector zone in a low-impedance manner. A second insulation layer is disposed on the collector connection region but not on the silicide region.
