摘要:
The invention relates to a BiCMOS device comprising a substrate having a first type of conductivity and a number of active regions that are provided therein and are delimited in a lateral direction by flat field-insulating regions. Vertical npn bipolar epitaxial base transistors are disposed in a first partial number of the active regions while vertical pnp bipolar epitaxial base transistors are arranged in a second partial number of the active regions of the BiCMOS device. One transistor type or both transistor types are provided with both a collector region and a collector contact region in one and the same respective active region. In order to improve the high frequency characteristics, an insulation doping region that is configured so as to electrically insulate the collector and the substrate is provided between the collector region and the substrate exclusively in a first transistor type in which the type of conductivity of the substrate corresponds to that of the collector region. In addition, the collector region of the first transistor type or both transistor types is laterally delimited by the flat field-insulating regions.

A complementary BiCMOS semiconductor device comprises a substrate of a first conductivity type and a number of active regions which are provided therein and which are delimited in the lateral direction by shallow field insulation regions, in which vertical npn-bipolar transistors with an epitaxial base are arranged in a first subnumber of the active regions and vertical pnp-bipolar transistors with an epitaxial base are arranged in a second subnumber of the active regions, wherein either one transistor type or both transistor types have both a collector region and also a collector contact region in one and the same respective active region. To improve the high-frequency properties exclusively in a first transistor type in which the conductivity type of the substrate is identical to that of the collector region, an insulation doping region is provided between the collector region and the substrate.

The invention concerns a bipolar transistor with an epitaxially grown base and a self-positioned emitter, whereby the base is formed from a first substantially monocrystalline epitaxial region (1) which is arranged in parallel relationship to the surface of the semiconductor substrate (2) and a second substantially polycrystalline and highly doped region (3) of the same conductivity type which is arranged in perpendicular relationship to the substrate surface and encloses the first region at all sides and that said second region, at least at one side but preferably at all four sides, is conductingly connected to a third, preferably highly doped or metallically conducting, high temperature-resistant polycrystalline layer (4) which is arranged in parallel relationship to the surface of the semiconductor substrate and forms or includes the outer base contact to a metallic conductor track system.
