A method of fabricating an RF lateral MOS device, comprising the following steps. A substrate having a gate oxide layer formed thereover is provided. A first layer of polysilicon is formed over the gate oxide layer. A second layer of material is formed over the polysilicon layer. The polysilicon and the second layer of material are patterned to form a gate having exposed sidewalls with the gate having a lower patterned polysilicon layer and an upper patterned second material layer. Sidewall spacers are formed on the exposed sidewalls of the gate. The upper patterned second material layer of the gate is removed to form a cavity above the patterned polysilicon layer and between the sidewall spacers. A planarized copper plug is formed within the cavity.

Self-aligned copper plating/CMP process for RF lateral MOS device

A process for fabricating a bipolar junction transistor, featuring an N type, polysilicon emitter structure, located in an emitter trench, and featuring a narrow width. P type base region, located directly underlying an N type, emitter region, which is formed in the semiconductor substrate, along the vertical and horizontal sides of the emitter trench, has been developed. The process features forming an emitter trench in a semiconductor substrate, followed by a large angle ion implantation procedure, used to form a P type, base region, in an area of the semiconductor substrate located along the sides of the emitter trench. Formation of a polysilicon emitter structure, followed by an anneal cycle, create a narrow width, emitter region, underlying the polysilicon emitter structure, also resulting in the formation of a narrow width, P type base region, located between the overlying N type emitter region, and an underlying N type, epitaxial silicon layer.
