    Abstract: Structures for a bipolar junction transistor and methods of forming a structure for a bipolar junction transistor. The structure includes a substrate having a well, a first terminal including a first raised semiconductor layer, a second terminal including a second raised semiconductor layer, and a base layer positioned in a lateral direction between the first raised semiconductor layer of the first terminal and the second raised semiconductor layer of the second terminal. The base layer has an overlapping arrangement with the well. The structure further includes a dielectric layer positioned in a vertical direction between the first terminal and the substrate, the second terminal and the substrate, and the base layer and the substrate.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide a bipolar transistor structure on a semiconductor fin. The semiconductor fin may be on a substrate and may have a first doping type, a length in a first direction, and a width in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The semiconductor fin includes a first portion and a second portion adjacent the first portion along the length of the semiconductor fin. The second portion is coupled to a base contact. A dopant concentration of the first portion is less than a dopant concentration of the second portion. An emitter/collector (E/C) material is adjacent the first portion along the width of the semiconductor fin. The E/C material has a second doping type opposite the first doping type. The E/C material is coupled to an E/C contact.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide an optical ring modulator. The optical ring modulator includes waveguide with a first semiconductor material of a first doping type, and a second semiconductor material having a second doping type adjacent the first semiconductor material. A P-N junction is between the first semiconductor material and the second semiconductor material. A plurality of photonic crystal layers, each embedded within the first semiconductor material or the second semiconductor material, has an upper surface that is substantially coplanar with an upper surface of the waveguide structure.

    Abstract: A device includes a first region, a second region disposed on the first region, a third region and a fourth region abutting the third region disposed in the second region, a fifth region disposed in the third region and coupled to a collector disposed above, and a sixth region disposed in the fourth region and coupled to an emitter disposed above. A first isolation is disposed between the collector and the emitter. A seventh region is disposed in the fifth region and coupled to the collector is spaced apart from the first isolation. The first region, the third region, the fifth region, the collector and the emitter have a first conductivity type different from a second conductivity type that the second region, the fourth region, the sixth region and the seventh region have.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide a lateral bipolar transistor structure with inner and outer spacers, and related methods. A lateral bipolar transistor structure may have an emitter/collector (E/C) layer over an insulator. The E/C layer has a first doping type. A first base layer is on the insulator and adjacent the E/C layer. The first base layer has a second doping type opposite the first doping type. A second base layer is on the first base layer and having the second doping type. A dopant concentration of the second base layer is greater than a dopant concentration of the first base layer. An inner spacer is on the E/C layer and adjacent the second base layer. An outer spacer is on the E/C layer and adjacent the inner spacer.
