Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide a lateral bipolar transistor structure with a superlattice layer and methods to form the same. The bipolar transistor structure may have a semiconductor layer of a first single crystal semiconductor material over an insulator layer. The semiconductor layer includes an intrinsic base region having a first doping type. An emitter/collector (E/C) region may be adjacent the intrinsic base region and may have a second doping type opposite the first doping type. A superlattice layer is on the E/C region of the semiconductor layer. A raised E/C terminal, including a single crystal semiconductor material, is on the superlattice layer. The superlattice layer separates the E/C region from the raised E/C terminal.

Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide a bipolar transistor structure with a collector on a polycrystalline isolation layer. A polycrystalline isolation layer may be on a substrate, and a collector layer may be on the polycrystalline isolation layer. The collector layer has a first doping type and includes a polycrystalline semiconductor. A base layer is on the collector layer and has a second doping type opposite the first doping type. An emitter layer is on the base layer and has the first doping type. A material composition of the doped collector region is different from a material composition of the base layer.

Abstract: Structures including a photodetector and methods of fabricating such structures. The photodetector is positioned over the top surface of the substrate. The photodetector includes a portion of a semiconductor layer comprised of a semiconductor alloy, a p-type doped region in the portion of the semiconductor layer, and an n-type doped region in the portion of the semiconductor layer. The p-type doped region and the n-type doped region converge along a p-n junction. The portion of the semiconductor layer has a first side and a second side opposite from the first side. The semiconductor alloy has a composition that is laterally graded from the first side to the second side of the portion of the semiconductor layer.

Abstract: The disclosure provides a field effect transistor (FET) stack with methods to form the same. The FET stack includes a first transistor over a substrate. The first transistor includes a first active semiconductor material including a first channel region between a first set of source/drain terminals, and a first gate structure over the first channel region. The first gate structure includes a first gate insulator of a first thickness above the first channel region. A second transistor is over the substrate and horizontally separated from the first transistor. A second gate structure of the second transistor may include a second gate insulator of a second thickness above a second channel region, the second thickness being greater than the first thickness. A shared gate node may be coupled to each of the first gate structure and the second gate structure.
