Method for manufacturing and structure of semiconductor device with sinker contact region

摘要

A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a buried layer of a semiconductor substrate. An active region is formed adjacent at least a portion of the buried layer. A first isolation structure is formed adjacent at least a portion of the buried layer. A second isolation structure is formed adjacent at least a portion of the active region. A base layer is formed adjacent at least a portion of the active region. A dielectric layer is formed adjacent at least a portion of the base layer, and then at least part of the dielectric layer is removed at an emitter contact location and at a sinker contact location. An emitter structure is formed at the emitter contact location. Forming the emitter structure includes etching the semiconductor device at the sinker contact location to form a sinker contact region. The sinker contact region has a first depth. The method may also include forming a gate structure. Forming the gate structure includes etching the sinker contact region thereby increasing the first depth of the sinker contact region to a second depth.
