Abstract
According to a semiconductor device herein, the device includes a substrate. An active device is formed in the substrate. The active device includes a collector region, a base region formed on the collector region, and an emitter region formed on the base region. An isolation structure is formed in the substrate around the active device. A trench filled with a compressive material is formed in the substrate and positioned laterally adjacent to the emitter region and base region. The trench extends at least partially into the base region.
