A SiGe-HBT having a base region made of SiGe mixed crystal. The base region includes: an intrinsic base region having junctions with a collector region and an emitter region; and an external base region for connecting the intrinsic base region with a base electrode. The intrinsic base region and the external base region are doped with a first impurity of a given conductivity type. The external base region is further doped with a second impurity. As the first impurity, an element smaller in atomic radius than Si (such as boron, for example) is selected, and as the second impurity, an element larger in atomic radius than the first impurity (such as Ge, In and Ga, for example) is selected.
摘要:
Immediately after a Si/SiGe film containing a contaminant is formed over all surfaces of a substrate by epitaxial growth, a portion of the Si/SiGe film formed to the back surface side of the substrate is removed by wet etching. In addition, the Si/SiGe film is subjected to processing with heating in a container, after which a dummy run is carried out in the container. These processings prevent secondary wafer contamination through a stage, a robot arm or a vacuum wand for handling a wafer and the contamination of the container also used in the fabrication process of a semiconductor device free from any group IV element but Si.

An Si/SiGe layer including an Si buffer layer, an SiGe spacer layer, a graded SiGe layer and an Si cap layer is epitaxially grown in a region corresponding to a collector opening while a polycrystalline layer is deposited on the upper surface of a nitride film, and side surfaces of an oxide film and the nitride film. In this case, the Si buffer layer is formed first and then other layers such as the SiGe spacer layer are formed, thereby ensuring non-selective epitaxial growth. Then, a polycrystalline layer is deposited over the nitride film.

A SiGe-HBT is provided with a SiGe film and a Si film grown in succession by epitaxial growth. The SiGe film is made up of a SiGe buffer layer, a SiGe graded composition layer, and a SiGe upper layer, in which the Ge content is substantially constant or changes not more than that of the SiGe graded composition layer. Even if there are fluctuations in the position of the EB junction, the EB junction is positioned in a portion of the SiGe upper layer, so fluctuations in the Ge content in the EB junction can be inhibited, and a stable high current amplification factor can be obtained. It is also possible to provide a SiGeC film instead of the SiGe film.
