A process for forming bipolar junction transistors having a plurality of different collector doping densities on a semiconductor substrate and an integrated circuit comprising bipolar junction transistors having a plurality of different collector doping densities. A first group of the transistors are formed during formation of a triple well for use in providing triple well isolation for complementary metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors also formed on the semiconductor substrate. Additional bipolar junction transistors with different collector doping densities are formed during a second doping step after forming a gate stack for the field effect transistors. Implant doping through bipolar transistor emitter windows forms bipolar transistors having different doping densities than the previously formed bipolar transistors. According to one embodiment of the present invention, bipolar junction transistors having six different collector dopant densities (and thus six different breakdown characteristics) are formed.

Multiple doping level bipolar junctions transistors and method for forming

A thermally conductive structure for a semiconductor integrated circuit and a method for making the structure. The structure comprises one or more vertical and/or horizontal thermally conductive elements disposed proximate a device for improving thermal conductivity from the device to a substrate of the integrated circuit. In one embodiment a heat sink is affixed to the integrated circuit for heat flow from the integrated circuit. The method comprises forming openings in material layers overlying the semiconductor substrate, wherein the openings are disposed proximate the device and extend to the substrate. A thermally conductive material is formed in the openings to provide a thermal path from the device to the substrate.

Method for forming multiple doping level bipolar junctions transistors

The present invention provides a method of manufacturing a resistor for use in a memory element and a semiconductor device employing the resistor. The method of manufacturing may comprise forming a dielectric layer over an active region of a semiconductor wafer and forming a resistive layer on the dielectric layer. The resistive layer comprises a compound wherein a first element of the compound is a Group III or Group IV element and a second element of the compound is a Group IV or Group V element. The method further comprises connecting an electrical interconnect structure to the resistive layer that electrically connects the resistive layer to the active region.
