摘要： A method for fabricating a semiconductor crystal that has a first step for forming a semiconductor crystal layer (202) that contains carbon atoms and at least one kind of Group IV element other than carbon on a substrate (201), a second step for adding an impurity that is capable of reacting with oxygen to the semiconductor crystal layer (202), and a third step for removing the carbon atoms contained in the semiconductor crystal layer (202) by reacting the carbon with the impurity. This method makes it possible to fabricate a semiconductor crystal substrate in which the concentration of interstitial carbon atoms is satisfactorily reduced, thus resulting in excellent electrical properties when the substrate is applied to a semiconductor device.

摘要： A Si1-xGex layer 111b functioning as the base composed of an i-Si1-xGex layer and a p+ Si1-xGex layer is formed on a collector layer 102, and a Si cap layer 111a as the emitter is formed on the p+ Si1-xGex layer. An emitter lead electrode 129, which is composed of an n− polysilicon layer 129b containing phosphorus in a concentration equal to or lower than the solid-solubility limit for single-crystal silicon and a n+ polysilicon layer 129a containing phosphorus in a high concentration, is formed on the Si cap layer 111a in a base opening 118. The impurity concentration distribution in the base layer is properly maintained by suppressing the Si cap layer 111a from being doped with phosphorus (P) in an excessively high concentration. The upper portion of the Si cap layer 111a may contain a p-type impurity. The p-type impurity concentration distribution in the base layer of an NPN bipolar transistor is thus properly maintained.

摘要： A variable capacitor includes an N+ layer including a variable capacitance region, a P+ layer epitaxially grown on the N+ layer and formed from a SiGe film and a Si film, and a P-type electrode. An NPN-HBT (Hetero-junction Bipolar Transistor) includes a collector diffusion layer formed simultaneously with the N+ layer of the variable capacitor, a collector layer, and a Si/SiGe layer epitaxially grown simultaneously with the P+ layer of the variable capacitor. Since a depletion layer formed in a PN junction of the variable capacitor can extend entirely across the N+ layer, reduction in variation range of the capacitance can be suppressed.
