    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to an integrated circuit (IC) having a heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) device. The HBT device generally includes an emitter region, a collector region, and a base region disposed between the emitter region and the collector region, the base region and the collector region comprising different semiconductor materials. The HBT device may also include an etch stop layer disposed between the collector region and the base region. The HBT device also includes an emitter contact, wherein the emitter region is between the emitter contact and the base region, and a collector contact, wherein the collector region is between the collector contact and the base region.

    Abstract: A method of dicing a semiconductor wafer may include forming a porous silicon layer along an outline of dies singulated from the semiconductor wafer. The method may include sealing an active surface of the semiconductor wafer, including the porous silicon layer. The method may further include back grinding a rear surface of the semiconductor wafer to expose the porous silicon layer along the outline of the dies. The method also includes etching the semiconductor wafer to release the dies.
