    摘要: A method for device fabrication disclosed is a self-aligned process. The device formed has small vertical as well as horizontal dimensions. The device region is surrounded by a deep oxide trench which has nearly vertical sidewalls. The deep trench extends from the epitaxial silicon surface through N+ subcollector region into the P substrate. The width of the deep trench is about 2 .mu.m to 3.0 .mu.m. A shallow oxide trench extending from the epitaxial silicon surface to the upper portion of the N+ subcollector separates the base and collector contact. The surface of the isolation regions and the silicon where the transistor is formed is coplanar. As shown in FIG. 1, the fabricated bipolar transistor has a mesa-type structure. The transistor base dimension is only slightly larger than the emitter. This small base area results in low collector-base capacitance which is a very important parameter in ultra-high performance integrated circuit devices. Contact to the transistor base in the disclosed structure is achieved by a thick heavily boron doped polysilicon layer which surrounds the emitter and makes lateral contact to the active base.

    摘要: This invention relates generally to ohmic contacts to substrates made of III-V compounds and to a process for fabricating such contacts. More specifically, the invention is directed to a contact to gallium arsenide having a given level of n-type dopant therein, a region of the substrate doped with germanium and a layer of a germanide of a refractory metal selected from the group consisting of molybdenum, tungsten and tantalum disposed on the substrate. Still more specifically, the invention relates to an ohmic contact to gallium arsenide which includes an interface region of germanium heavily doped with arsenic disposed between the region doped with germanium and the layer of germanide. The contact is formed by evaporating germanium and a refractory metal selected from the group consisting of molybdenum, tungsten and tantalum on the surface of an n-type gallium arsenide substrate and sintering the substrate in a reducing atmosphere for a time and at a temperature sufficient to form the first-to-form germanide of the refractory metal. The resulting contact is stable, has a very low contact resistance and may be subjected to later high temperature processing steps without affecting its characteristics.

    摘要: A transistor structure is provided with an emitter which is formed from non-monocrystalline silicon which is caused to be converted to monocrystalline silicon during the manufacture of the transistor. In the process of manufacturing the present semiconductor structure, a subcollector is formed in a semiconductor substrate. The subcollector dopant out diffuses into a subsequently deposited epitaxial layer. A base region is formed in the epitaxial layer of a conductivity type opposite that of the conductivity type of the subcollector. This results in a PN junction between the base region and the out diffused subcollector impurities forming the collector of the transistor.A layer of non-monocrystalline silicon is deposited on the epitaxial layer. At least a portion of the non-monocrystalline silicon forms a precursor for an emitter region which is contiguous to but vertically displaced from the surface of the base region. The emitter precursor is then bombarded with ions of a conductivity type that is the same as the conductivity type of the subcollector. The ion bombardment is at a dose and energy level sufficient to displace a portion of the Gaussian distribution of the ions across the interface between the non-monocrystalline layer and the epitaxial layer and into the base region. Thereafter, the structure is annealed by suitable means to drive a portion of the ions deeper into the base region and to convert the non-monocrystalline silicon of the emitter precursor into a monocrystalline emitter region.

    摘要: Disclosed is a method of making on a common substrate complementary vertical NPN and PNP transistors having matched high performance characteristics. A barrier region of a first conductivity type is formed on a semiconductor substrate of a second conductivity type. Then, a collector region for one of the complementary transistors of a second conductivity type is formed within the barrier region. It is convenient to simultaneously form isolation regions of a second conductivity type in the substrate while forming the collector region. A collector region of a first conductivity type is then formed in the substrate for the other of the complementary transistors. An epitaxial layer of semiconductor material doped with ions of the first conductivity type is then formed on the surface of the substrate.In a preferred embodiment the P-type emitter for the PNP transistor is formed prior to a last drive-in treatment by forming a polycrystalline silicon layer on the exposed surface of the base. The polycrystalline silicon is doped with a P-type dopant. Thereafter the transistor structure is subjected to conditions whereby the doping ions contained in the polycrystalline silicon layer are driven into the epitaxial layer to provide a shallow emitter region without effecting dislocations in the silicon lattice of the epitaxial layer.

    摘要: A method for device fabrication utilizing a self-aligned process. A combination of advanced semiconductor processing techniques including Deep Dielectric Isolation by reactive-ion etching, etching and refilling, planarizing with oxides and resists, and differential thermal oxidation are used to form devices having small vertical as well as horizontal dimensions. The device region is surrounded by a deep oxide trench which has nearly vertical sidewalls which extend from the epitaxial silicon surface through the N+ subcollector region into the P substrate. The width of the deep trench is about 2 .mu.m to 3 .mu.m. A shallow oxide trench extends from the epitaxial silicon surface to the upper portion of the N+ subcollector and separates the base and collector contact. The surface of the isolation regions and the silicon where the transistor is formed is coplanar. As shown in FIG. 1, the fabricated bipolar transistor has a mesa-type structure. The transistor base dimension is only slightly larger than the emitter. This small base area results in a low collector-base capacitance which is a very important parameter in ultra-high performance integrated circuit devices. Contact to the transistor base in the disclosed structure is achieved by a thick heavily boron doped polysilicon layer which is formed by an etch and refill process and which surrounds the emitter and makes lateral contact to the active base.
