Abstract

A lateral bipolar junction transistor (BJT) device includes: an emitter region, a collector region, and a base region, the base region positioned between and laterally separating the emitter region and the collector region, the base region including an intrinsic base region; and a cavity formed in a semiconductor substrate and filled with an insulating material, the cavity physically separating a lower surface of the intrinsic base region from the semiconductor substrate.
