    摘要: A method of forming a semiconductor device on a body of semiconductor material having a first doped region of a first conductivity type, comprising the steps of: forming a stud over the first doped region; using the stud as a mask to form a second doped region of a second conductivity type in the surface of the first doped region adjoining the stud; forming a sidewall of insulating material on the stud; forming a first device contact within the sidewall; and forming a second device contact over the second doped region adjoining the sidewall, such that the first and second electrical contacts are separated by the sidewall.In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, the step of forming the second device contact includes the steps of forming a layer of conductive material generally conformally over the first doped region and the stud, and then planarizing the layer of conductive material to a height equal to or less than that of the sidewalls. The second contact is thus self-aligned with the first and second doped regions and the first device contact.The method of the present invention can be utilized to fabricate bipolar transistors, insulated gate transistors, and BICMOS logic including both types of transistors. It can further be used to fabricate any other type of semiconductor device which utilizes the self-aligned, closely spaced device regions and contacts of the present invention.
