    摘要: Disclosed are embodiments of an improved transistor structure (e.g., a bipolar transistor (BT) structure or heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) structure) and a method of forming the transistor structure. The structure embodiments can incorporate a dielectric layer sandwiched between an intrinsic base layer and a raised extrinsic base layer to reduce collector-base capacitance Ccb, a sidewall-defined conductive strap for an intrinsic base layer to extrinsic base layer link-up region to reduce base resistance Rb and a dielectric spacer between the extrinsic base layer and an emitter layer to reduce base-emitter Cbe capacitance. The method embodiments allow for self-aligning of the emitter to base regions and further allow the geometries of different features (e.g., the thickness of the dielectric layer, the width of the conductive strap, the width of the dielectric spacer and the width of the emitter layer) to be selectively adjusted in order to optimize transistor performance.

    摘要: An improved bipolar transistor with dual shallow trench isolation for reducing the parasitic component of the base to collector capacitance Ccb and base resistance Rb is provided. The structure includes a semiconductor substrate having at least a pair of neighboring first shallow trench isolation (STI) regions disposed therein. The pair of neighboring first STI regions defines an active area in the substrate. The structure also includes a collector disposed in the in the active area of the semiconductor substrate, a base layer disposed atop a surface of the semiconductor substrate in the active area, and a raised extrinsic base disposed on the base layer. In accordance with the present, the raised extrinsic base has an opening to a portion of the base layer. An emitter is located in the opening and extending on a portion of the patterned raised extrinsic base; the emitter is spaced apart and isolated from the raised extrinsic base. Moreover, and in addition to the first STI region, a second shallow trench isolation (STI) region is present in the semiconductor substrate which extends inward from each pair of said first shallow trench isolation regions towards said collector. The second STI region has an inner sidewall surface that is sloped. In some embodiments, the base is completely monocrystalline.
