  • Semiconductor devices including a lateral bipolar structure with high current gains
    Patent number: 9190501
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes an emitter region, a collector region and a base region. The emitter region is implanted in a semiconductor substrate. The collector region is implanted in the semiconductor substrate. The base region is disposed between the emitter region and collector region. The base region includes no more than one LDD region and no more than one halo region. The base region contacts directly with at least one of the emitter region and the collector region.
    Type: Grant
