Abstract
The present disclosure relates to semiconductor structures and, more particularly, to heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs) with a buried trap rich isolation region and methods of manufacture. The structure includes: a first heterojunction bipolar transistor; a second heterojunction bipolar transistor; and a trap rich isolation region embedded within a substrate underneath both the first heterojunction bipolar transistor and the second heterojunction bipolar transistor.
Claims19
A structure, comprising:
- a bipolar heterojunction transistor;
- a field effect transistor adjacent to the bipolar heterojunction transistor;
- shallow trench isolation structures separating the bipolar heterojunction transistor from the field effect transistor;
- and
- a trap rich isolation region under the both the bipolar heterojunction transistor and the field effect transistor, under the shallow trench isolation structures.
A structure comprising:
- a first type of heterojunction bipolar transistor;
- a second type of heterojunction bipolar transistor, different from the first type of heterojunction bipolar transistor;
- a trap rich isolation region embedded within a substrate underneath both the first heterojunction bipolar transistor and the second heterojunction bipolar transistor;
- and
- an isolation region within the substrate, under the trap rich isolation region and the second type of heterojunction bipolar transistor.
A method, comprising:
- forming a bipolar heterojunction transistor;
- forming a field effect transistor adjacent to the bipolar heterojunction transistor;
- forming shallow trench isolation structures separating the bipolar heterojunction transistor from the field effect transistor;
- and
- forming a trap rich isolation region under the both the bipolar heterojunction transistor and the field effect transistor, under the shallow trench isolation structures.
