A bipolar transistor includes a collector. The collector is formed by: a first portion of the collector which extends under an insulating trench, and a second portion of the collector which crosses through the insulating trench. The first and second portions of the collector are in physical contact.

Bipolar transistor

A bipolar transistor includes a collector. The collector is produced by a process wherein a first substantially homogeneously doped layer is formed at the bottom of a cavity. A second gradually doped layer is then formed by diffusion of dopants of the first substantially homogeneously doped layer.

A circuit includes at least one bipolar transistor and at least one variable capacitance diode. The circuit is fabricated using a method whereby the bipolar transistor and variable capacitance diode are jointly produced on a common substrate.

Method for producing a diode

At least one bipolar transistor and at least one variable capacitance diode are jointly produced by a method on a common substrate.

A device including a transistor is fabricated by forming a first part of a first region of the transistor through the implantation of dopants through a first opening. The second region of the transistor is then formed in the first opening by epitaxy.

Device comprising a transistor

A bipolar transistor includes a collector region having a first doped portion located in a substrate and a second doped portion covering and in contact with an area of the first doped portion. The collector region has a doping profile having a peak in the first portion and a decrease from this peak up to in the second portion.

Bipolar transistor and manufacturing method

A transistor is produced by forming a first part of a first region of the transistor in a semiconductor substrate by implanting dopants through an opening in an isolating trench formed at an upper surface of the semiconductor substrate. A second region of the transistor in the opening by epitaxy.

A bipolar transistor includes a stack of an emitter, a base, and a collector. The base is structured to have a comb shape including fingers oriented in a plane orthogonal to a stacking direction of the stack.

A bipolar junction transistor includes an extrinsic collector region buried in a semiconductor substrate under an intrinsic collector region. Carbon-containing passivating regions are provided to delimit the intrinsic collector region. An insulating layer on the intrinsic collector region includes an opening within which an extrinsic base region is provided. A semiconductor layer overlies the insulating layer, is in contact with the extrinsic base region, and includes an opening with insulated sidewalls. The collector region of the transistor is provided between the insulated sidewalls.

Bipolar-transistor device and corresponding fabrication process

A method of making a bipolar transistor includes forming a stack of a first, second, third and fourth insulating layers on a substrate. An opening is formed in the stack to reach the substrate. An epitaxial process forms the collector of the transistor on the substrate and selectively etches an annular opening in the third layer. The intrinsic part of the base is then formed by epitaxy on the collector, with the intrinsic part being separated from the third layer by the annular opening. The junction between the collector and the intrinsic part of the base is surrounded by the second layer. The emitter is formed on the intrinsic part and the third layer is removed. A selective deposition of a semiconductor layer on the second layer and in direct contact with the intrinsic part forms the extrinsic part of the base.
