Method of making a stacked emitter in a bipolar transistor by selective laser irradiation

摘要

An insulating film is formed on a semiconductor substrate, and the insulating film on that part of the semiconductor substrate where an emitter is to be formed, is removed to expose the surface of the above part. A polycrystalline or amorphous silicon film is deposited on the entire surface, and then irradiated with a laser beam to convert that portion of the polycrystalline or amorphous silicon film which is deposited on the surface of the semiconductor substrate without interposing the insulating film therebetween, into a single crystal of silicon, thereby forming a stacked emitter.
