    • In one disclosed embodiment, a silicon-germanium base is formed, which includes an extrinsic base region, a link base region, and an intrinsic base region. An etch stop layer, which can be silicon oxide, is deposited over the silicon-germanium base. A polycrystalline silicon layer is then formed on the etch stop layer above the silicon-germanium base. The polycrystalline silicon layer is patterned to form a temporary emitter. The link base regions can be implant doped after fabricating the temporary emitter, for example, to reduce the resistance of the link base regions. Link spacers are then fabricated on the sides of the temporary emitter. The link spacers can be formed by depositing a conformal layer of silicon oxide over the temporary emitter and then etching back the conformal layer. The length of the link base regions, which are below the spacers, can be determined by the deposition thickness of the conformal layer. The extrinsic base regions are implant doped after fabricating the link spacers. A protective layer of silicon oxide can be deposited over the extrinsic base regions, link spacers and temporary emitter prior to patterning the temporary emitter and link spacers by opening a photoresist mask. The temporary emitter is then etched away and the etch stop layer is removed, forming a cavity between the link spacers. A final emitter is then formed in the cavity. For example, the final emitter can be formed by depositing polycrystalline silicon in the cavity and forming a base-emitter junction within the intrinsic base region.
    • 在一个公开的实施例中,形成硅 - 锗基底,其包括外在基极区域,连接基极区域和本征基极区域。 可以在硅 - 锗基底上沉积可以是氧化硅的蚀刻停止层。 然后在硅 - 锗基底上的蚀刻停止层上形成多晶硅层。 图案化多晶硅层以形成临时发射体。 例如,在制造临时发射极之后,链路基极区域可以被注入掺杂,以减小链路基极区域的电阻。 然后在临时发射器的侧面上制造连接间隔物。 连接间隔物可以通过在临时发射体上沉积氧化硅保形层,然后蚀刻保形层来形成。 可以通过保形层的沉积厚度来确定在间隔物之下的连接基区的长度。 外部基极区域在制造链路间隔物之后是注入掺杂的。 在通过打开光致抗蚀剂掩模来形成临时发射极和连接间隔物之前,可以在外部基极区域,连接间隔物和临时发射体之间沉积氧化硅保护层。 然后蚀刻掉临时发射体,去除蚀刻停止层,在连接间隔物之间​​形成空腔。 然后在空腔中形成最终的发射极。 例如,最终发射极可以通过在腔内沉积多晶硅并在本征基极区内形成基极 - 发射极结而形成。

    • According to a disclosed method, a dopant spike region is formed in a link base region, which connects an intrinsic base region to an extrinsic base region. For example, the intrinsic base region can be the region in which the base-emitter junction is formed in a silicon-germanium heterojunction bipolar transistor, and the extrinsic base region can be the external portion of the base of the same transistor to which external electrical contact is made. The dopant spike can be an increased concentration of boron dopant. A diffusion blocking segment is then fabricated on top of the link base region in order to prevent diffusion of the dopant spike out of the link base region. For example, the diffusion blocking segment can be formed from silicon-oxide. Thus, link base resistance is reduced, for example, by the higher concentration of boron dopant in the dopant spike region causing the link base resistance to be lower than the intrinsic base resistance. Moreover, a structure comprising a base region with reduced link base resistance can be fabricated according to the disclosed method.
