Abstract
A semiconductor device (10) is formed in a semiconductor substrate (11) that acts as a collector region. A base region (12) is formed in the semiconductor substrate (11) and an emitter region (52) is formed such that it contacts at least a portion of the base region (12). A conductive layer (28) is used to provide electrical connection to the emitter region (52). The portion of the conductive layer (28) above the emitter region (52) is counter-doped to address the problems of an interfacial oxide layer (27) that exists between the emitter region (52) and the conductive layer (28).
