Abstract

A semiconductor includes a buried conducting layer, such as a buried collector, comprises a trench, the walls of which are covered with a layer of a material in which dopant ions diffuse faster than in monocrystalline silicon. A contact area is doped in close proximity to the trench wall. The dopants will diffuse through the layer and form a low resistance connection to the buried layer. The layer may comprise polysilicon or porous silicon, or a silicide. If the material used in the layer is not in itself conducting, the size of the component may be significantly reduced.
