Embodiments of the disclosure provide an integrated circuit (IC) structure, including a semiconductor-based isolation structure on a substrate. A shallow trench isolation (STI) structure may be positioned on the semiconductor-based isolation structure. An active semiconductor region is on the substrate and adjacent each of the semiconductor-based isolation structure and the STI structure. The active semiconductor region includes a doped semiconductor material. At least one device on the active semiconductor region may be horizontally distal to the STI structure.

Integrated circuit structure with semiconductor-based isolation structure and methods to form same

The present disclosure relates to semiconductor structures and, more particularly, to heterojunction bipolar transistors and methods of manufacture. The structure includes: a first semiconductor layer including a device region; a second semiconductor layer under the first semiconductor layer; a layer of conductive material between the first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer; at least one contact extending to and contacting the layer of conductive material; and a device in the device region above the layer of conductive material.
