Abstract :
A submicrometre CMOS technology, with selfaligned silicide (salicide) and a high energy implanted retrograde well, has been used to develop bipolar transistors and vertical junction FET devices based on the same pMOS selfaligned structure. Good performance devices have been obtained, with no need for buried layers and epitaxy, allowing low-cost multidevice integration.
