    摘要: Walkout in high voltage trench isolated semiconductor devices is inhibited by applying a voltage bias signal directly to epitaxial silicon surrounding the device. Voltage applied to the surrounding epitaxial silicon elevates the initial breakdown voltage of the device and eliminates walkout. This is because voltage applied to the surrounding epitaxial silicon reduces the strength of the electric field between the silicon of the device and the surrounding silicon. Specifically, application of a positive voltage bias signal to surrounding epitaxial silicon equal to or more positive than the most positive potential occurring at the collector during normal operation of the device ensures that no walkout will occur.

    摘要: Process for the formation of epitaxial layers with controlled n-type dopant concentration depth profiles for use in NPN bipolar transistors. The process includes first providing a semiconductor substrate (e.g. a [100]-oriented silicon wafer substrate) with an n-type collector precursor region formed on its surface, followed by forming an n-type (e.g. phosphorous or arsenic) in-situ doped epitaxial layer of a thickness t1 on the n-type collector precursor region. Next, an undoped epitaxial layer of a thickness t2 is formed on the n-type in-situ doped epitaxial layer. A p-type (e.g. boron) in-situ doped epitaxial base layer is subsequently formed on the undoped epitaxial layer. The process can also include the sequential formation of an undoped Si1−xGex epitaxial layer and a p-type in-situ doped Si1−xGex epitaxial layer between the undoped epitaxial layer and the p-type in-situ doped epitaxial base layer. Accumulation of the n-type dopant concentration in p-type epitaxial layers (such as the p-type in-situ doped epitaxial base layer or the p-type in-situ doped Si1−xGex epitaxial layer) that are formed subsequent to a non-p-type epitaxial layer (such as the undoped epitaxial layer or undoped Si1−xGex epitaxial layer, respectively) is controlled by manipulating the thickness ratio of t2 to t1, while keeping the thickness of N-layer fixed at t (i.e. t1+t2).

    摘要: A method of manufacturing truly complementary bipolar transistors on a common substrate. The method results in the fabrication of vertical NPN and PNP transistors which have an identical structure and mode of operation, with both devices operating in the downward direction. The inventive method permits independent control of the characteristics of the two devices, producing a closely matched performance for both devices.

    摘要: A semiconductor device, polysilicon-contacted trench isolation- structure that provides improved electrical isolation stability, a method of operating a polysilicon-contacted trench isolated semiconductor device, and a process for manufacturing a polysilicon-contacted trench isolation structure. The trench isolation structure includes an isolation trench formed in a semiconductor substrate. The isolation trench has a layer of trench lining oxide, a layer of trench lining silicon nitride and a trench fill polysilicon (poly 1) layer. Exposed lateral surfaces of the poly 1, which extend above the trench lining silicon nitride, are contacted to another layer of polysilicon (poly 2). The method of operation includes applying a bias voltage to the trench fill poly 1 layer via poly 2. The process for manufacture includes etching an isolation trench that extends through a layer of field oxide and into a semiconductor substrate. After forming layers of trench lining oxide, trench lining silicon nitride and trench fill poly 1 in the isolation trench, the trench lining silicon nitride is etched back to expose lateral surfaces of the trench fill poly 1. A poly 2 layer is then deposited and makes contact with the exposed lateral surfaces of the trench fill poly 1.

    摘要: A process for anisotropically etching a tungsten silicide or tungsten polycide structure. If the silicide/polycide film has an overlying oxide layer, the insulating layer is removed by a gas mixture composed of CHF.sub.3 and C.sub.2 F.sub.6. The WSi.sub.x silicide layer is then etched in a reactive ion etch using a gas mixture formed from Cl.sub.2 and C.sub.2 F.sub.6, with sufficient O.sub.2 added to control polymer formation and prevent undercutting of the silicide. The polysilicon layer is then etched using a gas mixture formed from Cl.sub.2 and C.sub.2 F.sub.6. The result is a highly anisotropic etch process which preserves the critical dimension of the etched structures. The etch parameters may be varied to produce a tapered sidewall profile for use in the formation of butted contacts without the need for a contact mask.
