Abstract
A system and method comprises forming an intrinsic base on a collector. The system and method further includes forming a fully silicided extrinsic base on the intrinsic base by a self-limiting silicidation process at a predetermined temperature and for a predetermined amount of time, the silicidation substantially stopping at the intrinsic base. The system and method further includes forming an emitter which is physically insulated from the extrinsic base and the collector, and which is in physical contact with the intrinsic base.
