According to one embodiment of the invention, a method for manufacturing a bipolar junction transistor includes implanting a first base dopant in a semiconductor substrate, forming an epitaxial layer outwardly from the semiconductor substrate, and forming a dielectric layer outwardly from the epitaxial layer. The method also includes etching a first portion of the dielectric layer to form an emitter region, forming an emitter polysilicon layer on the semiconductor substrate, and implanting an emitter dopant in the emitter polysilicon layer. The method further includes etching a portion of the emitter polysilicon layer and a second portion of the dielectric layer to form an emitter polysilicon region having sidewalls, forming nitride regions on the sidewalls, and implanting a second base dopant in the semiconductor substrate. After implanting the second base dopant, an annealing process is performed for the semiconductor substrate to form an emitter and a base.
