Abstract
A BiCMOS device is revealed. The BiCMOS device achieves improved performance through the use of wrap-around silicide contacts, improved MOS gate formation, the use of n- and p-type LDD's, the formation of very shallow base regions in bipolar transistors, and through separate implants for base regions of the bipolar transistors and source/drains of the MOSFETS.
