A semiconductor device wherein a layer doped with impurities is provided between a buried layer and an epitaxial layer, said layer doped with impurities having a conductivity of the type opposite to that of said buried layer and said epitaxial layer, a reversely biasing voltage is applied across the buried layer and the layer doped with impurities, and side surfaces of the epitaxial layer are surrounded by an insulator.This helps effectively prevent the element formed in the epitaxial layer from being affected by .alpha.-particles and greatly improve reliability of the semiconductor device.

A bipolar memory of a construction having high immunity to soft error attributable to alpha rays is provided. The transistors of a flip flop, i.e., the essential circuitry of the memory cell, are inverted and the load device thereof has shielding means for shielding the flip flop from the noise produced within the substrate. Bipolar transistors and Schottky barrier diodes are employed as the load devices. A buried layer (ordinarily, an n type layer) and a doped layer of the reverse conductivity type (ordinarily the p type) are formed in a region where the device is provided, and a reverse bias is applied across the buried layer and the doped layer to shut off the noise produced within the substrate.

摘要:
A vertical bipolar transistor arrangement in which the distance between the emitter and the isolation region is kept within a range determined by the sum of emitter depth and base width (i.e., the thickness of the base in the depth direction). This keeps the carriers given by the emitter from getting trapped inside, thereby preventing the cut-off frequency from dropping.

A bipolar memory of a construction having high immunity from soft error attributable to alpha rays is provided. The transistors of a flip flop, i.e., the essential circuit of the memory cell, are inverted, and the load device thereof has a shielding arrangement for shielding the flip flop from the noise produced within the substrate. Either pnp type transistors or Schottky barrier diodes are employed as the load devices. A buried layer (ordinarily, an n type layer) and a doped layer of the reverse conductivity type (ordinarily the p type) are formed in the region where the device is provided. A reverse bias is applied across the buried layer and the doped layer to shut off the noise produced within the substrate.
摘要:
A bipolar transistor capable of operating at high speeds. In a bipolar transistor designed for operation at high speeds, a polycrystalline silicon layer used as a base electrode effects is a contact area with respect to the base region which lacks precision or tends to increase. Further, when the transistor is formed in a small size, the ratio of the contact area with respect to the polycrystalline area increases, making it difficult to increase the operation speed. In order to reduce the contact area of the polycrystalline silicon layer, this invention deals with the structure in which the polycrystalline silicon layer is brought into contact with a portion near the edge of the convex semiconductor layer maintaining a small size and a high precision.
摘要:
A lateral bipolar transistor affording a good controllability for a base length is disclosed.In fabricating a lateral bipolar transistor by forming a single crystal column and disposing heavily doped polycrystalline regions on both sides of the column, contact surfaces between the single crystal column and the heavily doped polycrystalline regions are controlled by etching of an oxide film. The etching of the oxide film can provide a device of a precision higher than attained by controlling any other element.
