Bipolar transistor fabrication with trench isolation
A bipolar transistor has a buried collector 22 on a silicon substrate 21, a collector 23 defined by trenches filled with insulating material, an intrinsic base 30 formed on the collector 23, an extrinsic base 26 electrically isolated from the silicon substrate 21 by a thermal-oxide layer 25, a condu...

Summary: | A bipolar transistor has a buried collector 22 on a silicon substrate 21, a collector 23 defined by trenches filled with insulating material, an intrinsic base 30 formed on the collector 23, an extrinsic base 26 electrically isolated from the silicon substrate 21 by a thermal-oxide layer 25, a conductive polysilicon layer 31 formed in self-alignment to connect the intrinsic base with the extrinsic base, and an emitter 33 formed on a portion of the intrinsic base and composed of polysilicon doped with an impurity. The trench may be defined by etching, or by a side-wall nitride layer. |
