Abstract

1,150,834. Semi-conductor devices. RADIO CORPORATION OF AMERICA. 20 June, 1967 [5 Oct., 1966], No. 28474/67. Heading H1K. A photomask 50 used in semi-conductor device manufacture has at least one opaque portion 52 aligned with a corresponding aperture 38 which has been initially opened in a first masking layer 33 and subsequently closed by a second masking layer 40, the opaque portion 52 being larger in area than the aperture 38 so that any slight misalignment is accommodated and the aperture 38 can be accurately reopened. The embodiment comprises an NPN transistor, formed from a Si wafer carrying a grown or deposited first masking layer (33), Fig. 4 (not shown), of silicon dioxide or nitride. Apertures (36, 38) are opened simultaneously in the layer (33) by a photolithographic process using a single photomask, and a second thinner oxide masking layer (40), Fig. 5 (not shown), is deposited to cover the entire surface, including the apertures. Two apertures (38) are then opened again, leaving the third one (36) closed, by a photolithographic etching process using the photomask 50, Fig. 6. P+ contact regions (28), Fig. 8 (not shown) are diffused from vapour through the apertures (38), suitable dopants being B, Al, Ga, or In. The layer (40) may be removed at this stage from the aperture (36) by the same technique as that used for apertures (38). Alternatively the remaining portion of layer (40) may be left on until after the next step. A further oxide layer (60), Fig. 10 (not shown), is then deposited, and the aperture (36) reopened again, also using the same technique as above. The P type base region (24) is then formed by B-diffusion through the aperture (36), linking with the P+ contact regions (28). In an alternative step the apertures (38) may be left open during diffusion of the base region (24), further enhancing the conductivity of part of the contact regions (28). The N+ type emitter region (22), Fig. 11 (not shown), is diffused into the base region (24), through the same aperture (36), the dopant being P, As or Sb, and the remaining oxide masks are removed, leaving only the original masking layer (30). Al or Au electrodes are then applied, excess material being etched away using a suitable mask. Several such transistors may be formed in a single Si slice, and subsequently separated by dicing.
