Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, in particular to a method for manufacturing a germanium-silicon heterojunction bipolar transistor. Background technique
[0002] A very important application field of silicon germanium heterojunction bipolar transistor (SiGe HBT) is the low noise amplifier, which takes full advantage of the low noise advantage of silicon germanium heterojunction bipolar transistor (SiGe HBT). Bipolar transistors (SiGe HBT) generally use polysilicon emitters, which are relatively easy to form crystal defects and surface states at the emitter / base junction, and the 1 / f noise of noisy devices increases, thereby increasing the white noise of the device. However, the emitter cannot use a silicon single crystal layer, because the N-type impurities in the emitter cannot form a relatively uniform distribution in the silicon single crystal layer, which will reduce the injection efficiency of carriers fr...
