Abstract

A method of manufacturing a bipolar junction transistor (BJT) array may include forming a substrate of doped silicon and forming a plurality of BJTs on the substrate. Each of the BJTs may have a first region and a second region sandwiching a base region vertically. The first region may be in contact with the substrate, where the BJTs are formed in a first row and a second row. The first row and the second row may each have BJTs separated from one another by a word line distance and the first row and second row may be separated by a bit line distance. A plurality of word line contacts may be formed laterally enclosing and electrically connected to each base region of the BJTs. The word line contacts may have a lateral thickness more than one half the word line distance and less than one half the bit line distance.
