Publisher's Synopsis
A BJT includes a pillar formed on a buried oxide layer that is itself formed on a silicon substrate. The pillar has top and bottom surfaces and sidewalls, the bottom surface contacting the buried oxide layer and opposite the top surface. The pillar forms part of a base of the BJT. Si: C layers are formed on a bottom portion of each of the sidewalls of the pillar and leave a top portion of the sidewalls of the pillar exposed. A doped base contact is formed to contact at least part of the exposed sidewalls in the top portion of the pillar. E/C regions are formed abutting the Si: C layers. Contacts are formed to connect to the doped base contact and to the E/C regions. Methods for forming the BJT are also disclose
