Abstract
A method in the fabrication of an IL circuit comprises (i) forming a common base of a lateral bipolar transistor and emitter of a vertical bipolar multicollector transistor, a common collector of the lateral transistor and base of the vertical multicollector transistor, and an emitter of the lateral transistor in a substrate; (ii) forming, from a first deposited polycrystalline layer, a contact region for the common collector/base and a contact region for the emitter of the lateral transistor; (iii) forming an isolation structure for electric isolation of the polycrystalline contact region for the common collector/base; and (iv) forming, from a second deposited polycrystalline layer, a contact region for the common base/emitter and multiple collectors of the vertical multicollector transistor.
