Abstract
A semiconductor die includes a transistor with an emitter, base, and collector. The base includes an intrinsic base that is located in monocrystalline semiconductor material grown in an opening of a first semiconductor layer. A second semiconductor layer is located above the first semiconductor layer and includes a monocrystalline portion. In some embodiments, an opening was formed in the second semiconductor layer wherein a portion of the underlying first semiconductor layer was etched to form a cavity in which a monocrystalline intrinsic base was grown.
