    摘要: Disclosed are embodiments of an improved transistor structure (e.g., a bipolar transistor (BT) structure or heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) structure) and a method of forming the transistor structure. The structure embodiments can incorporate a dielectric layer sandwiched between an intrinsic base layer and a raised extrinsic base layer to reduce collector-base capacitance Ccb, a sidewall-defined conductive strap for an intrinsic base layer to extrinsic base layer link-up region to reduce base resistance Rb and a dielectric spacer between the extrinsic base layer and an emitter layer to reduce base-emitter Cbe capacitance. The method embodiments allow for self-aligning of the emitter to base regions and further allow the geometries of different features (e.g., the thickness of the dielectric layer, the width of the conductive strap, the width of the dielectric spacer and the width of the emitter layer) to be selectively adjusted in order to optimize transistor performance.

    摘要: A bipolar transistor with raised extrinsic base and selectable self-alignment between the extrinsic base and the emitter is disclosed. The fabrication method may include the formation of a predefined thickness of a first extrinsic base layer of polysilicon or silicon on an intrinsic base. A dielectric landing pad is then formed by lithography on the first extrinsic base layer. Next, a second extrinsic base layer of polysilicon or silicon is formed on top of the dielectric landing pad to finalize the raised extrinsic base total thickness. An emitter opening is formed using lithography and RIE, where the second extrinsic base layer is etched stopping on the dielectric landing pad. The degree of self-alignment between the emitter and the raised extrinsic base is achieved by selecting the first extrinsic base layer thickness, the dielectric landing pad width, and the spacer width.

    摘要: Methods for fabricating bipolar junction transistors, bipolar junction transistors, and design structures for a bipolar junction transistor. The bipolar junction transistor may include a plurality of emitters that are arranged in distinct emitter fingers. A silicide layer is formed that covers an extrinsic base layer of the bipolar junction transistor and that fills the gaps between adjacent emitters. Non-conductive spacers on the emitter sidewalls electrically insulate the emitters from the silicide layer. The emitters extend through the extrinsic base layer and the silicide layer to contact the intrinsic base layer. The emitters may be formed using sacrificial emitter pedestals in a replacement-type process.

    摘要: Disclosed are embodiments of a bipolar or heterojunction bipolar transistor and a method of forming the transistor. The transistor can incorporate a dielectric layer sandwiched between an intrinsic base layer and a raised extrinsic base layer to reduce collector-base capacitance Ccb, a sidewall-defined conductive strap for an intrinsic base layer to extrinsic base layer link-up region to reduce base resistance Rb and a dielectric spacer between the extrinsic base layer and an emitter layer to reduce base-emitter Cbe capacitance. The method allows for self-aligning of the emitter to base regions and incorporates the use of a sacrificial dielectric layer, which must be thick enough to withstand etch and cleaning processes and still remain intact to function as an etch stop layer when the conductive strap is subsequently formed. A chemically enhanced high pressure, low temperature oxidation (HIPOX) process can be used to form such a sacrificial dielectric layer.

    摘要: A self-aligned bipolar transistor and method of fabricating the same are disclosed. In an embodiment, a substrate and an intrinsic base are provided, followed by a first oxide layer, and an extrinsic base over the first oxide layer. A first opening is formed, exposing a portion of a surface of the extrinsic base. Sidewall spacers are formed in the first opening, and a self-aligned oxide mask is selectively formed on the exposed surface of the extrinsic base. The spacers are removed, and using the self-aligned oxide mask, the exposed extrinsic base and the first oxide layer are etched to expose the intrinsic base layer, forming a first and a second slot. A silicon layer stripe is selectively grown on the exposed intrinsic and/or extrinsic base layers in each of the first and second slots, substantially filling the respective slot.
