A heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT), an integrated circuit (IC) chip including at least one HBT and a method of forming the IC. The HBT includes an extrinsic base with one or more buried interstitial barrier layer. The extrinsic base may be heavily doped with boron and each buried interstitial barrier layer is doped with a dopant containing carbon, e.g., carbon or SiGe:C. The surface of the extrinsic base may be silicided.

A heterobipolar transistor (HBT) for high-speed BiCMOS applications is provided in which the collector resistance, Rc, is lowered by providing a buried refractory metal silicide layer underneath the shallow trench isolation region on the subcollector of the device. Specifically, the HBT of the present invention includes a substrate including at least a subcollector; a buried refractory metal silicide layer located on the subcollector; and a shallow trench isolation region located on a surface of the buried refractory metal silicide layer. The present invention also provides a method of fabricating such a HBT. The method includes forming a buried refractory metal silicide underneath the shallow trench isolation region on the subcollector of the device.

Disclosed is a method and structure for an integrated circuit structure that includes a plurality of complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) transistors and a plurality of vertical bipolar transistors positioned on a single substrate. The vertical bipolar transistors are taller devices than the CMOS transistors. In this structure, a passivating layer is positioned above the substrate, and between the vertical bipolar transistors and the CMOS transistors. A wiring layer is above the passivating layer. The vertical bipolar transistors are in direct contact with the wiring layer and the CMOS transistors are connected to the wiring layer by contacts extending through the passivating layer.

A heterojunction bipolar transistor is formed in a semiconductor substrate of a first conductivity type including a collector region. A base region is formed on the substrate and an emitter region is formed over the base region. At least one of the collector, base and emitter regions includes a first region doped with an impurity having a first concentration and a second region doped with the impurity having a second concentration. Noise performance and reliability of the heterojunction bipolar transistor is improved without degrading ac performance.
