Abstract
A bipolar transistor is provided whose emitter surrounds the base. The transistor has in some embodiments a high ratio of the emitter area to the base area and low collector and emitter resistances. Further, a transistor is provided in which a collector contact region is surrounded by the base. Consequently, a low collector resistance is obtained in some embodiments.
