Demonstration of Symmetric Lateral NPN Transistors on SOI Featuring Epitaxially Grown Emitter/Collector Regions

Symmetric lateral NPN bipolar junction transistors on Si-on-insulator having epitaxially grown emitter/collector regions are demonstrated, for the first time. A novel notch-assisted epitaxy scheme has been developed using faceted Si epitaxial (epi) layers as reactive-ion-etch mask to expose the vert...
