Abstract

An integrated circuit structure includes a well region of a first conductivity type, an emitter of a second conductivity type opposite the first conductivity type over the well region, a collector of the second conductivity type over the well region and substantially encircling the emitter, and a base contact of the first conductivity type over the well region. The base contact is horizontally spaced apart from the emitter by the collector. At least one conductive strip horizontally spaces the emitter, the collector, and the base contact apart from each other. A dielectric layer is directly under, and contacting, the at least one conductive strip.
