Abstract

The present disclosure is directed to a method that includes exposing a surface of a silicon substrate in a first region between first and second isolation trenches, etching the silicon substrate in the first region to form a recess between the first and second isolation trenches, and forming a base of a heterojunction bipolar transistor by selective epitaxial growth of a film comprising SiGe in the recess.
