Abstract

A thyristor-based semiconductor memory device may comprise at least a region thereof, e.g., a p-base region, having high ionization energy impurity, such as a dopant. This high ionization energy impurity within a base region may be operable to compensate for a gain-versus-temperature dependence of a constituent bipolar transistor of the thyristor element of a thyristor-based memory device. In particular embodiments, the high ionization energy impurity may include a donor and/or acceptor in silicon.
