    摘要: A raised extrinsic base, silicon germanium (SiGe) heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT), and a method of making the same is disclosed herein. The heterojunction bipolar transistor includes a substrate, a silicon germanium layer formed on the substrate, a collector layer formed on the substrate, a raised extrinsic base layer formed on the silicon germanium layer, and an emitter layer formed on the silicon germanium layer. The silicon germanium layer forms a heterojunction between the emitter layer and the raised extrinsic base layer. The bipolar transistor further includes a base electrode formed on a portion of the raised extrinsic base layer, a collector electrode formed on a portion of the collector layer, and an emitter electrode formed on a portion of the emitter layer. Thus, the heterojunction bipolar transistor includes a self-aligned raised extrinsic base, a minimal junction depth, and minimal interstitial defects influencing the base width, all being formed with minimal thermal processing. The heterojunction bipolar transistor simultaneously improves three factors that affect the speed and performance of bipolar transistors: base width, base resistance, and base-collector capacitance.

    摘要: A method of forming a BiCMOS integrated circuit having a raised extrinsic base is provided. The method includes first forming a polysilicon layer atop a surface of a gate dielectric which is located atop a substrate having device areas for forming at least one bipolar transistor and device areas for forming at least one complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) transistor. The polysilicon layer is then patterned to provide a sacrificial polysilicon layer over the device areas for forming the at least one bipolar transistor and its surrounding areas, while simultaneously providing at least one gate conductor in the device areas for forming at least one CMOS transistor. At least one pair of spacers are then formed about each of the at least one gate conductor and then a portion of the sacrificial polysilicon layer over the bipolar device areas are selectively removed to provide at least one opening in the bipolar device area. At least one bipolar transistor having a raised extrinsic base is then formed in the at least one opening.

    摘要: The present invention provides a unique device structure and method that provides increased transistor performance in integrated bipolar circuit devices. The preferred embodiment of the present invention provides improved high speed performance with a stepped collector dopant profile that reduces emitter-collector transit time and parasitic resistance with minimal increase in parasitic capacitances. The preferred stepped collector dopant profile includes a shallow implant and a deeper implant. The shallow implant reduces the base-collector space-charge region width, reduce resistance, and tailors the collector-base breakdown characteristics. The deeper implant links the buried collector to the subcollector and provides a low resistance path to the subcollector. The stepped collector dopant profile has minimal impact on the collector-base capacitance outside the intrinsic region of the device since the higher dopant is compensated by, or buried in, the extrinsic base dopants outside the intrinsic region.

    摘要: A field effect transistor is provided which includes a contiguous single-crystal semiconductor region in which a source region, a channel region and a drain region are disposed. The channel region has an edge in common with the source region as a source edge, and the channel region further has an edge in common with the drain region as a drain edge. A gate conductor overlies the channel region. The field effect transistor further includes a structure which applies a stress at a first magnitude to only one of the source edge and the drain edge while applying the stress at no greater than a second magnitude to another one of the source edge and the drain edge, wherein the second magnitude has a value ranging from zero to about half the first magnitude. In a particular embodiment, the stress is applied at the first magnitude to the source edge while the zero or lower magnitude stress is applied to the drain edge. In another embodiment, the stress is applied at the first magnitude to the drain edge while the zero or lower magnitude stress is applied to the drain edge.

    摘要: A structure, apparatus and method for a FET prime cell surrounded by a conductor is provided. The surrounding conductor includes a substrate contact arranged proximate a source of the FET. The surrounding conductor may be a ring substrate contact arranged within the substrate of the FET in electrical communication with elongated sources of the FET. No external contacts are needed to the ring substrate contact because no current flows therethrough while the ring substrate contact may act as a collection source for noise such as stray currents.
