Abstract: Methods are disclosed for forming a varied impurity profile for a collector using scattered ions while simultaneously forming a subcollector. In one embodiment, the invention includes: providing a substrate; forming a mask layer on the substrate including a first opening having a first dimension; and substantially simultaneously forming through the first opening a first impurity region at a first depth in the substrate (subcollector) and a second impurity region at a second depth different than the first depth in the substrate. The breakdown voltage of a device can be controlled by the size of the first dimension, i.e., the distance of first opening to an active region of the device. Numerous different sized openings can be used to provide devices with different breakdown voltages using a single mask and single implant. A semiconductor device is also disclosed.
