Abstract
A logic gate cell structure is disclosed. The logic gate cell structure includes a substrate, a channel layer disposed over the substrate, and a field-effect transistor (FET) contact layer disposed over the channel layer. The FET contact layer is divided by an isolation region into a single contact region and a combined contact region. The channel layer and the FET contact layer form part of a FET device. A collector layer is disposed within the combined contact region over the FET contact layer to provide a current path between the channel layer and the collector layer though the FET contact layer. The collector layer, a base layer, and an emitter layer form part of a bipolar junction transistor.
