    Abstract: In one aspect, a method of fabricating a bipolar transistor device on a wafer includes the following steps. A dummy gate is formed on the wafer, wherein the dummy gate is present over a portion of the wafer that serves as a base of the bipolar transistor. The wafer is doped to form emitter and collector regions on both sides of the dummy gate. A dielectric filler layer is deposited onto the wafer surrounding the dummy gate. The dummy gate is removed selective to the dielectric filler layer, thereby exposing the base. The base is recessed. The base is re-grown from an epitaxial material selected from the group consisting of: SiGe, Ge, and a III-V material. Contacts are formed to the base. Techniques for co-fabricating a bipolar transistor and CMOS FET devices are also provided.

    Abstract: Methods of etching a silicon substrate at a high rate using a chemical vapor etching process are provided. A silicon substrate may be etched by heating the silicon substrate in a process chamber and then flowing hydrochloric acid and a germanium-carrying compound into the process chamber. The substrate may be heated to at least 700° C. The hydrochloric acid flow rate may be at least approximately 100 (standard cubic centimeters per minute) sccm. In some embodiments, the hydrochloric acid flow rate may be between approximately 10 slm and approximately 20 standard liters per minute (slm). The germanium-carrying compound flow rate may be at least approximately 50 sccm. In some embodiments, the germanium-carrying compound flow rate may be between approximately 100 sccm and approximately 500 sccm. The etching may extend fully through the silicon substrate.

    Abstract: A method of making a magnetic random access memory device includes forming a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) on an electrode, the MTJ including a reference layer, a tunnel barrier layer, and a free layer; disposing a hard mask on the MTJ; etching sidewalls of the hard mask and MTJ to form a stack with a first width and redeposit metal along the MTJ sidewall; depositing a sacrificial dielectric layer on the hard mask, surface of the electrode, exposed sidewall of the hard mask and the MTJ, and on redeposited metal along the sidewall of the MTJ; removing a portion of the sacrificial dielectric layer from sidewalls of the hard mask and MTJ and redeposited metal from the MTJ sidewalls; and removing a portion of a sidewall of the MTJ and hard mask to provide a second width to the stack; wherein the second width is less than the first width.
