Abstract
Double-diffused, lateral n-p-n bipolar transistors were fabricated in a simple CMOS-like process using SIMOX silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrates. Excellent device characteristics were achieved, with peak hFE = 120, BVCEO= 10 V, and peak ft = 4.5 GHz. The ft versus BVCEO trade-off was studied as a function of n collector width. ft > 25 GHz is predicted for this structure with an improved device layout and optimized basewidth. This process may be easily extended in order to fabricate complementary BJT’s in a C-BiCMOS thin-film SOI technology.
