摘要： The inventive method of making a poly-Si emitter transistor (PET) comprises opening an emitter window in a dielectric (typically SiO.sub.2) layer, and depositing onto the thus exposed surface and/or into the single crystal Si material that underlies the exposed surface at least one atomic species. This deposition step is following by the conventional poly-Si deposition, dopant implantation and "drive-in". In a currently preferred embodiment the novel deposition step comprises a low dose, low energy As implantation (5.times.10.sup.13 -2.times.10.sup.15 atoms/cm.sup.2, 0.1-5 keV). The novel method can result in significantly improved device characteristics, e.g., in a doubling of h.sub.FE, as compared to analogous prior art PETs.

摘要： A heterojunction bipolar transistor in an integrated circuit has intrinsic and extrinsic base portions. The intrinsic base portion substantially comprises epitaxial silicon-germanium alloy. The extrinsic base portion substantially comprises polycrystalline material, and contains a distribution of ion-implanted impurities. An emitter overlies the intrinsic base portion, and a spacer at least partially overlies the emitter. The spacer overhangs the extrinsic base portion by at least a distance characteristic of lateral straggle of the ion-implanted impurities.

摘要： A photodetector is formed from a body of semiconductor material substantially surrounded by dielectric surfaces. A passivation process is applied to at least one surface to reduce the rate of carrier generation and recombination on that surface. Photocurrent is read out from at least one electrical contact, which is formed on a doped region whose surface lies entirely on a passivated surface. Unwanted leakage current from un-passivated surfaces is reduced through one of the following methods. (a) The un-passivated surface is separated from the photo-collecting contact by at least two junctions (b) The un-passivated surface is doped to a very high level, at least equal to the conduction band or valence band density of states of the semiconductor (c) An accumulation or inversion layer is formed on the un-passivated surface by the application of an electric field. Electrical contacts are made to all doped regions, and bias is applied so that a reverse bias is maintained across all junctions.

摘要： The present invention provides, in one embodiment, a method of fabricating a heterostructure bipolar transistor. This particular embodiment comprises forming a n-type doped region in a semiconductor substrate to form a collector, epitaxially forming a base on the collector, epitaxially doping the base with indium while forming the base, and forming an emitter on the base. The base is epitaxially formed, and at the same time the base is doped with indium. In other words, the indium is epitaxially incorporated within the base as the base is being formed. In addition to the indium, the base may also be epitaxially doped with boron. Since, indium is incorporated into the base with the same epitaxial process used to form the base, the damage typically associated with conventional implantation processes are not present, and thus, the high annealing temperatures to repair the damage are not required. The base can be doped and formed at the same time; thereby, saving processing time.
摘要翻译：本发明在一个实施例中提供了制造异质结双极晶体管的方法。该特定实施例包括在半导体衬底中形成n型掺杂区以形成集电极，在集电极上外延形成基极，在形成基底的同时，用铟外延掺杂铟，并在基底上形成发射极。基底是外延形成的，同时基底上掺杂有铟。换句话说，当正在形成基底时，铟外延结合在基底内。除了铟之外，碱也可以外延掺杂硼。由于铟以与形成基底相同的外延工艺结合到基底中，所以不存在通常与常规注入工艺相关的损伤，因此不需要用于修复损伤的高退火温度。碱可以同时掺杂并形成; 从而节省处理时间。

摘要： Improved devices with silicon to SiGe alloy heterojunctions are provided for in accordance with the following discoveries. X-ray topography and transmission electron microscopy were used to quantify misfit-dislocation spacings in as-grown Si.sub.1-x Ge.sub.x films formed by Limited Reaction Processing (LRP), which is a chemical vapor deposition technique. These analysis techniques were also used to study dislocation formation during annealing of material grown by both LRP and by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The thickness at which misfit dislocations first appear in as-grown material was similar for both growth techniques. The thermal stability of capped and uncapped films was also investigated after rapid thermal annealing in the range of 625.degree. to 1000.degree. C. Significantly fewer misfit dislocations were observed in samples containing an epitaxial silicon cap. Some differences in the number of misfit dislocations generated in CVD and MBE films were observed after annealing uncapped layers at temperatures between 625.degree. and 825.degree. C.

摘要： An improved monolithic solid state imager comprises plural sub-arrays of respectively different kinds of pixels, an optional filter mosaic comprising color filters and clear elements, and circuitry to process the output of the pixels. The different kinds of pixels respond to respectively different spectral ranges. Advantageously the different kinds of pixels can be chosen from: 1) SWIR pixels responsive to short wavelength infrared (SWIR) in the range of approximately 800-1800 nm; 2) regular pixels responsive to visible and NIR radiation (400-1000 nm) and wideband pixels responsive to visible, NIR and SWIR radiation.

摘要： Imagers, pixels, and methods of using the same are disclosed for imaging in various spectra, such as visible, near infrared (IR), and short wavelength IR (SWIR). The imager may have an imaging array having pixels of different types. The different types of pixels may detect different ranges of wavelengths in the IR, or the SWIR, spectra. The pixels may include a filter which blocks some wavelengths of radiation in the IR spectrum while passing other wavelengths. The filter may be formed of a semiconductor material, and therefore may be easily integrated with a CMOS pixel using conventional CMOS processing techniques.
