Vertical field effect transistor arrays and methods for fabrication thereof

Vertical field effect transistor semiconductor structures and methods for fabrication of the vertical field effect transistor semiconductor structures provide an array of semiconductor pillars. Each vertical portion of each semiconductor pillar in the array of semiconductor pillars has a linewidth greater than a separation distance to an adjacent semiconductor pillar. Alternatively, the array may comprise semiconductor pillars with different linewidths, optionally within the context of the foregoing linewidth and separation distance limitations. A method for fabricating the array of semiconductor pillars uses a minimally photolithographically dimensioned pillar mask layer that is annularly augmented with at least one spacer layer prior to being used as an etch mask.

Super self-aligned BJT with base shorted field plate and method of fabricating

A bipolar junction transistor (BJT) structure and fabrication method are provided in which a doped polysilicon filled trench is utilized to form both the extrinsic base contact region and a vertical field plate. A sacrificial mandrel of dielectric material is formed over regions that will become the BJT active area.

In this way, the base-collector and emitter-base junctions are both self-aligned to the field plate trench. The field plate is utilized to control and shape the electric field in the base-collector depletion region, allowing heavier collector well doping for the same breakdown voltage. This results in improvement in both the breakdown / Ron ratio and the fT*BVcbo product.
