Patent ID: 10622262

Abstract:
A silicon-on-insulator (SOI) CMOS transistor and a SOI heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) are fabricated on the same semiconductor substrate. First and second SOI regions are formed over the semiconductor substrate. A SOI CMOS transistor is fabricated in the first SOI region, and a collector region of the SOI HBT is fabricated in the second SOI region. The collector region can be formed by performing a first implant to a local collector region in the second SOI region, and performing a second implant to an extrinsic collector region in the second SOI region, wherein the extrinsic collector region is separated from the local collector region. A SiGe base is formed over the collector region, wherein a dielectric structure separates portions of the SiGe region and the extrinsic collector region. The SOI CMOS transistor and SOI HBT may be used to implement a front end module of an RF system.
