  • Publication number: 20240006517
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to semiconductor structures and, more particularly, to transistor with wrap-around extrinsic base and methods of manufacture. The structure includes: a substrate; a collector region within the substrate; an emitter region over the substrate and which comprises silicon based material; an intrinsic base; and an extrinsic base overlapping the emitter region and the intrinsic base; an extrinsic base overlapping the emitter region and the intrinsic base; and an inverted “T” shaped spacer which separates the emitter region from the extrinsic base and the collector region from the emitter region.
    Type: Application

  • Publication number: 20230395619
    Abstract: Structures for a single-photon avalanche diode and methods of forming a structure for a single-photon avalanche diode. The structure includes a semiconductor substrate having a top surface, a semiconductor layer on the top surface of the semiconductor substrate, a light-absorbing layer on a portion of the semiconductor layer, and a doped region in the portion of the semiconductor layer. The doped region is positioned in the portion of the semiconductor layer adjacent to the light-absorbing layer.
